ok, so low tuned boxes can be heard from further away than a high tuned box? correct me if im wrong.........

same tuning, bigger box should do that trick.

by me doing the polyfil with the box, the bass is deeper, thats whaat i wanted box its not as loud to me tho. b4 i did the polfil, the low notes would barely move the subs and it would sound like poop. i want to do 1 solo x 12, will that sub get loud and low as ****???

why did u have a box tuned to 12hz, the human ear cannot even hear below 20hz...

Ive found that the lower the port tuning goes, the less impact the substage has during bass hits. I had mine tuned to 28hz for a while, it played the lows **** well. However that impact just wasnt 100% there.

Im thinking anything below a 30-32hz tuning frequency should be reserved for a home system.

a guy on here told me my last box was tuned to.

i built a box for my 12inch audioque tuned to about 42hz and that shit was loud as fuck inside the cabin but it was pretty quiet outside; i mean you can hear the bass and the rattling but it didnt sound as good as my buddy's two type r 10s sealed from far away.

depends on what size, subs you have; ive had both experiences.

Lower tuned boxes slow down time for me during low bass hits. Anybody know what feeling im talking about? I know im not the only one.

Whats the deal with the retards wanting to be heard from far away? Don't you realize that if you're being heard from such a great distance, the inside of your car is just losing THAT much bass.
