[QUOTE="VWBobby, post: 8189986, member: 624844"] The manufacture must be factoring in the cabin gain, I'm guessing.... I am using WinISD and other programs. As I was saying before, every sub I've modeled graphs better with a little larger box and little lower tune. A lot of the recommend enclosures have a spike around 32- 38hz or so when graphed on the SPL in WinISD. If I design a box, I can smooth that out quite a bit or move the spike a little lower to give a slight boost around 30hz (1 - 3db). It's pretty easy to tune for a flat response, but I'm not sure what that would sound like in-car? I figure having a fast rising curve on paper, or a slight bump around 30hz would help with the low 25 - 38hz notes in rap and other electronic music... Any thoughts on this? Tuning around 36hz would have more "boom" right? I don't want as much boom as having a smooth fat bandwidth from ~25hz - 60hz if possible.... I'm know I'm asking for a lot, right?
