Dustin Gold Member Username: Cenus Ohio Post Number: 3665 Registered: Jan-05	Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 - 03:11 GMT i'd tune to 30hz then, for a daily driver that will dominate lows, or 35-38hz for a box that will get loud and still have decent lows, but never go below a subs FS, just my opinion.

JK Gold Member Username: Jkidder Gunshine , State Flawda Post Number: 2259 Registered: Nov-05	Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 - 05:50 GMT not hard at all. just hard to design
Dustin Gold Member Username: Cenus Ohio Post Number: 3666 Registered: Jan-05	Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 - 18:44 GMT build an abc box, will have awsome lows and get very loud if done correctly, only thing is its gonna be around 7cf. talk to sean i know hes done some abc's before.

Dustin Gold Member Username: Cenus Ohio Post Number: 3668 Registered: Jan-05	Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 - 20:00 GMT the enclouser volume is determined by what sub he's useing, since it uses the 1/3 princibal, so if a "regular" ported box is 4.5cf and abc box should be around 6cf, but ported is easier and will achieve almost the same results.
sean Gold Member Username: Insearchofbass Post Number: 6738 Registered: Jun-04	Posted on Monday, October 15, 2007 - 20:09 GMT It could be less than that...I personaly believe the 1/3 rule is a rough guide and can be adjusted ....some depends on the vehicle too
