Loww Bass

[§ephiroth]

How do i get this , alot of ppl say crossover but i wanna know from you ppl, I know there are songs with Low bass, but sometimes i hear other ppl systems playin songs that i play and the bass they have seems to be Lower than my own...FOR THE SAME SONG.. So advice would be greatly appreciated

[jeff]

your box is tunned too high..tune it lower hopefuly your sub can handle it

[§ephiroth]

Soo I hadda build another box?

Soo I hadda build another box?

yes...either that ...or get ureself an epicenter...lol

if a proper low tuned box is built trust me it will give u d looooooows & shake every sheit around - i tune 99% of my boxes low & ppl from this forum will tell u how they sound .....

[VexXx Dogg]

first of all what kind of subs do you have?

believe me it makes a world of difference.
JL audio hits lows that you will not believe - as opposed to other brands of similar ratings.

Had ah premier SPL 3002 sub wid ah epicenter dat was cool. Kyle did my box !!!

[crazybalhead]

An epicenter does not create low bass, but adds harmonic distortion to the system.

A properly tuned box is what you need.

their boxes and port sizes are unusually long ...take a look at their recommended sizes for port its longer than others

MR.ROVIN if i putin one 12" in ah ad wagon
40Hz is ah good frequency or i should go lower

[casper]

^^^^ ...LOW-ER juicy j....thats TOO high.....rovin usually tunes his boxes at around 33-38 hertz and they KICK @$$

MR.ROVIN if i putin one 12" in ah ad wagon
40Hz is ah good frequency or i should go lower

i too own a AD wagon & i done many different box designs testing in it

some ppl would consider 40hz tuning to be "low bass" ...NOT ME !
......like casper said above - thats how i roll ..........

[demboyzaudio]

well u cud always get sumone to change the port. (make it longer)

check one ah dem fellaz
rovin or keston (audiopipe)

if u want a lil bit a highs also try tunin to round 35.

[juicy_j]

ppl where u does get aero ports from i lookin for 2 4" aero ports

[casper]

^^^and 35hertz gonna give you highs???

[MonsterPower]

so umm... what about cabin gain and resonant frequency of the vehicle? nobody takes this into acount???

[§ephiroth]

audiobahn subs, they are the old one with the chrome plated back and kind of grill thing in the centre but what will happen to the higher frequencies, such as those in soca R&B etc and some other genres like rock and stuff?

[greenman]

^^^and 35hertz gonna give you highs???

i think you shud try a better speaker in addition to a better box, make sure the sub is properly powered, and that its getting a good signal.

[demboyzaudio]

well it kinda between 33 and 40 so i figured dat will give u a nice frequency.
i tuned to 37.
want to go lower.

ROVIN I hadda check you to organise the box for the L5

maybe may month end

[TK!]

ent the lower u tune, the worse it is for the life of your sub... and the worse it is for SQ?

[jeff]

i think more people "burn" their subs by tunning them too high and by trying to play low bass... the sub "unloads" under the tunning freq of the box..

[casper]

ent the lower u tune, the worse it is for the life of your sub... and the worse it is for SQ?

^^^not too sure about that nah tk....to me high bass was for spl purposes and low bass was for sq.....

spam when u ready i here

tk - thats not really true ,depends on other factors & also what d sub was designed for T\S specs etc

main sub killers i think is clipping ,too much bass boost , poorly designed box , seriously overpowering

i never killed any sub as yet & hopefully i never will ......

^^^true true.....had a L5 kicker square once....in wrong box built from...(and yes i callin names cuz they should learn to build the boxes and dem properly instead of half way and damaging people brand new expensive speakers)...Tee Tee in fernandez compound....

first of all....the sealed box for the 10" was bigger than the size it should have been for the vented....and the wood was like 1/2" pligh.....stupesssssss ....they have it "pre made."....when i asked....they said "YESS SIR....its built to specs"........ ...wat specs them talking about???they was holding that specs sheet upside down or what????

and the price for this was $350
