Say i have a cvr and i think they are like 26hz or sumthing, the manual said in you wanted to build the spl/deepbass vented enclosure it was tuned to like 40hz but someone told me to tune it to 32hz. Whats the big difference between those two? For better sq do you go lower? Thanx muddywaters...

The sub peaks out at a little below the tuning frequency of the box. I listen to all rap, and i tuned aroun 32hz for my 15. I would say listen to muddy and do about 35hz. The difrence is that the sub will move out of control on notes below the tuning frequency of the box. HIgher tuned is generally for SPL(mid 40hz.) and lower tuned for SQ.
