[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8754127, member: 591582"] I could play 14 hz with my 2 18's and it shook my truck. I didn't have a subsonic filter at all, because I was tuned a 29 hz and the sub starting losing it's ability to throw itself hard enough to bottom itself out below tuning, because I was getting so low that the woofer couldn't fully reproduce the note, so I never had to run a lower crossover (I did for voltage reasons around like 24-25 hz). [USER=614752]@hispls[/USER] I'm not even saying that you're wrong, but you're saying I'm wrong, and I don't think you quite understand fully what I am saying. Yes, sound is subjective, but that's what the whole point is. People don't care about their t/s and how it changes or doesn't. People mostly care about how it sounds to their ears. I installed dude, 100's of cars. We used to install on 5-10 cars a day during tax season. Even customers would tell us over time the subs were hitting lows they didn't know a sub could even hit, and it was related to the woofer loosening up, and we hadn't mentioned anything about that to them. When that happens, where you literally have 100's of customers in your local area that bump around town and you see them roll by the shop and turn their bass up and we all wave at them, that's the way it was. I was in the thick of East Nashville with thugs and guns and drugs and hipsters and rednecks and 26" rims. We served everybody. Black, white, asian, aliens, we didn't care. Many many people made the comment of how their subs played lower the longer they played them. You can say all of those people are wrong too, and you weren't there to see this, so I can't prove this to you, but I have no reason to lie. I'm literally telling people my life and experiences. Now when a customers tells me their sub started playing lower after a while and they really liked it, you know what I DO NOT DO? I would never tell a customer that their magic ritual is bullsh*t. They wouldn't even understand that concept, because they don't even know enough. They only know that their subs played the low note on Put On way better the 10th time they played that song than the first time. How in the living f*ck could all of these people that I installed their system and built their box for be full of sh*t? They walk in and say "Hey Buck! Man, holy cow, the subs sure are hitting lows better now that I've played them a while." I've heard that many times. So, go ahead and call BS on those people too, who don't even know anything about audio other than bass sounds awesome and they want it. [/QUOTE]
