[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8821447, member: 614752"] LOL. I like 40hz tuning myself but would probably try to get down to 36hz ish if you do not have a subsonic filter on your amp or source unit. You may run into some mid 30hz material in modern pop music and I do not believe those subs are robust enough to really take a lot of punishment playing below port tuning. You may consider buying some PVC pipe or even pre-made fluted ports (from PartsExpress) and you can modify tuning by just swapping/shortening/extending ports if wherever you try to tune isn't cutting it once she actually gets a couple hours of playing whatever her average listening is. Just go easy until you feel out the limits of those subs. Playing any sub too far below port tuning can break them very quickly and with not much power. [/QUOTE]
