[QUOTE="americannight, post: 8076460, member: 624648"] The lower frequency waves will be felt a lot more and especially with the type of music you listen to, you should tune to 30-35Hz. See what makes sense with your driver and space limitations when you model it. Keep in mind that with a ported box, the speaker will bottom out below the tuned frequency. So even though a lot of the rap bass is in the 40-50Hz range, there are still plenty of notes in the 30-40Hz range (listen to E-40 and there is tons of bass in that lower range). You still want to be able to reproduce that lower bass without damaging your woofers so that's why you typically want to tune on the low side (plus that low bass just sounds and feels really cool). Cross your woofers over at 80Hz so they should play from the tuned frequency up to 80Hz.
