[QUOTE="akillj, post: 8293592, member: 644272"] A true 8th order box should not even be considered for a musical scenario. It will literally have no output beyond a VERY specific frequency. 6th order's are hard to do right, usually I see people attempt these and end up plugging one of the ports and just working around them to get a 4th order setup. Bandpass boxes in general, are very peaky around one or two frequency's and that's about it.. If you still want a truly musical experience with nasty lows, i'd personally just tear down and rebuild with even lower tuning. Your setup can sound worlds different just by changing the box / port specs. EDIT: There are ways to get around the peakyness though. You can build 4th orders with certain sealed>ported ratios and certain port specs that will actually give a surprisingly wide range of frequencys. Have a pro design it for you lol. [/QUOTE]
