A lot of subs that are tuned more towards SPL require higher tuning... but, the tuning is lowered when put into a car. I talked to a DD employee who said that his box was tuned to 38 or 39, and when in the car it's most efficient in the 32-33 range. BUt, I think a big part of the high tuning is the stiff suspension. Not too sure, though.

It's the stiff suspension that will allow the sub to play far below its tuning than other subs out there. Read it somewhere, don't remember where, but it was a credible source
