Silver Member Username: Davids2004Houston, TX USA Post Number: 207 Registered: Jun-04 | Ok ive been looking at some subs. They require .7 cu foot for a ported box tuned to 40 hz. My box I have is .95 cu foot per sub for two subs after displacement and port displacement. Does the bigger the box get the lower the port is tuned. Also on another sub It requires .85 cu foot tuned to 50 hz. Same box as above Which sub would work the best. Please help. |

That being said, I can't tell you what your box is tuned to w/o port dimensions or box dimensions. You'll have to measure the boxes inside dimensions and measure the length of the port and diameter. 40 is a high tune, 50 hz is a very high tune, poor SQ there. |

Silver Member Username: Davids2004Houston, TX USA Post Number: 211 Registered: Jun-04 | No divider. So since the boxes are a little bigger then the subs need does that change the tuning frequency any at all or is that box set at that tuning frequency no matter what sub you put in the box. |
