[QUOTE="TheBigPilferer, post: 8863493, member: 690294"] I totally agree. Unless for pure SPL competition, I see no point in having a subwoofer that doesn't play low - I'd say 30 Hz minimum but ideally 20. My current 32 Hz tuned enclosure gets me down to about 27-28 before it rolls off, which is pretty good for the majority of music I play, but the next time I upgrade subs, I think I'm going to use a single 18" tuned to like 26-28 so I can get down lower. Some of these SPL subs have an Fs of 45-50 Hz!?!? Pretty worthless for anything except a burp. I think it would be cool to run one of the stereo integrity ht18v3 subs. They're dual 2 ohm, so it would work well with my amp. The box requirement is kinda large on stereo integrity's site, but they're making a recommendation based upon home theater use.
