Going from Sealed to Ported again...

[JoseMCeee 10+ year member]

Ok right now I have the jbl power subs in about .76 cubes sealed each. 10s. Im thinking about porting them with about 3.0 cubes net @ 29 hz. Just wondering. I never tuned this low but I should gain alot more output for sure. Just about how much? My last ported box for 2 tens took up alot of space and wasnt really loud.... This one gives more space to the sides but it would also take up all the space. Should I do it?

If you want loud, tune to 35Hz. That will give you a decent low end and plenty of hard hitting pressure level. At 29Hz, it will get really low, but not as loud. If you are going for sound quality, tune the box between 27-32Hz for some good low end range.

10s just never impress

I would do that but I dont wanna waste more money on ANOTHER setup.

Also would the 29 hz tuning be louder than the sealed box output?

Actually you know wat. After putting a Pioneer 12 306c with a viper 300.1 barely giving it any power in my girls car.. These subs might be a good choice. There 12s and get pretty loud with just about half of wat the viper amp would put out. Plus they are only ~50 bucks each.
