off if possible, a sub sonic filter is meant to keep the sub from bottoming out.. this usually isnt a problem in a sealed box

Subsonic filter is meant so that the driver doesn't over-exert itself in a ported box where it's playing X frequency, and X Frequency is

It's hard to say, as it depends on the in-car response and the recording. Contrary to popular car audio belief, subsonic/ (errr...) infrasonic frequencies do waste power in a sealed sub, as well as reduce its resolution, albeit on a comparatively much lesser scale. Assuming the filter runs 12dB/octave, I'd begin listening at ~25-30Hz and then go from there. Good luck.

Do you really want to listen to folks some of whom are either children or solely qualified to do manual labor for a living? Do yourself a favor and look-up some true technical data, and that means avoiding a car forum like the plague. Or, you can simply listen to it and watch the sub move as you spin a variety of recordings. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
