[QUOTE="shredder1, post: 8915993, member: 658920"] Can I add some advice to epicenter users? 40hz prefab tuning is where most music "beats", and with a prefab that's fine w/o an epicenter as long as you're not asking much down low. Running an epicenter is usually for those fat lows... correct? With an Epicenter think of a 1/4 octave bass boost beginning 10hz under tuning, well past any 40hz tuned ported boxes unloading point and imagine what that FAT sound does to your subwoofers suspension with no cone control. My advice is to tune for that 1/4 octave below tuning "IE" 40hz center frequency should be paired with an enclosure tuned 30hz. There is a reason most subs in an enclosure /w/ a sealed section just naturally has longevity with an epicenter unless clipped to death. There's another reason some subs in enclosures /w/ a vented section last and others do not. Either way its user error imo... good luck with that warranty... haha [/QUOTE]
