[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8669617, member: 676005"] Mate, generally speaking, most sealed boxes would yield a 35hz tuning and if you want more 'thump then ported would be the way to go but tuning could be higher say 40 - 45hz, but don't forget your ride peaks around 40 - 60hz and most prefab boxes out there is tuned to these frequency since it will keep most people adding a subwoofer to their system a big grin with the result. There is always an option to tune lower by designing your own box and using programs such as WINISD to determine your subwoofer box performance before you actually go ahead with a custom box. Just remember, tuning a box higher will also steer you into the SPL category so your box will not sound too good with daily driving but its your choice and your music. You are free to create your subwoofer box and tune it low to your liking but try using say a 4 inch PVC plumbing pipe so you can always change the port if you wish to tune it higher or lower and then secure the port once you are satisfied with the end result. :graduate: Good luck and let us know how you go with it mate!
