[QUOTE="Pr1m3, post: 6581851, member: 576439"] [B]I'll assume you didn't search, which you should[/B] But... I'll try to figure out what the questions are here... If I answer something wrong feel free to correct me. Two parts to this, the lower the tuning means a lower peak range, so it's 45hz on a box tuned to 40hz will be louder than 45hz in a box tuned to 30hz. Second part if the sub plays a note lower than the tuning of the box, than you drastically increase the risk of mechanical failure and bottoming out if the suspension is not stiff enough to handle it. This should not be your concern............. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] IIRC you're pretty close. I think it's because subs are much less efficient at producing very low bass. 40-50hz seems to be the sweet spot for SPL. Hope I helped. Next time, [B]search![/B] [B]PS: Add more of these> . , ; ' ! ? [/B] [/QUOTE]
