I listen to electronica and alot of metal so it has to hit hard but be accurate and fast. Thanks |

Bronze Member Username: HellbenderWinnetka, California USA Post Number: 16 Registered: Apr-05 | Thanks for the info guys I will look into a 12" then. Hey Glasswolf what do you think of the eclipse titanium 12"? Better or as good as the RE triple x? And Sean how would I find the perfect frequency range? I do know that I would like the sound of a double bass kick drum to stand out accurately. |

Silver Member Username: Suleman36Post Number: 779 Registered: Feb-05 | btw..james i know you mentioned it earliar but what size sealed box are you running your avalanche 15 in. Cause once i get the 250g4 im going sealed. |
Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 2441 Registered: Dec-04 | 2.5 cu/ft |
Silver Member Username: Suleman36Post Number: 783 Registered: Feb-05 | with my current setup im going 3.5cu ft. tuned to like 22Hz-25hz since the resonant freq is 15.7Hz and that is low. That way itll peak at a accurate and loud freq. |
