[QUOTE="Ed Lester, post: 4735990, member: 587479"] Technically yes, The lower the frequency you tune a box to, the lower it will play effectively. It all depends on what you are tuning for though. Are you tuning for a peak at that frequency for SPL? Or are you tuning an F3 of the box to know how low it can play before unloading? I believe there is a great misconception on tuning. There are multiple things to tune to when designing a box. If designed for SQ, there will barely be an audible difference between 35hz and 38 hz. especially since an ideal SQ enclosure will have a very flat response. [/QUOTE]
