the undefeated spl stock 1 champion in 2009 box was tuned to around 33hz

ok,dats not high,but those arena men,boxes for dem are what?

[silent_riot]

I know a padna living arena road, freeport. I go give him a call and find out wha he box tune to.
But hear nah, dat man bassline hard fuh days.
Doh worry I go ask him to find out wha he neighbours box and dem tune to. Dat shud cover all them arena cars for yuh.

^^ Buh yuh forget the fella wid d march.


I think he box is like 2.4cubs @ 45htz.

[silent_riot]

I just get off the phone with ganpat dey. You right boom, he say for a 12, he does use 2.4-2.5@45-48Hz. He say you hadda use a heavy amp though, otherwise the bassline would not drop, nor would thine midrange clap.

d sarcasm heavy here this morning boi ...



but u know in a sense u all not lying , i bet most of them tuned between 45-50hz , any vehicle bassline "sounding soft" in d arena most likely tuned closer to 40hz , i doubt any seasoned competitor does tune 38hz for carshow again


i have used my spl tuned box to go on d meter & enter CP with it after (earned 2 trophies in d same show) , d trick is knowing what song to play that will sound good enough off ur high tuned box ....

[kurpal_v2]

Serious that is a man box from 1-12.

[smaharaj]

nice!im guna tune my box to 45 and crack a lil 1000 rms and see wat happens

[MONGO]

^^if yuh do dat some songs with lows go play like crap u know certain songs will play good, go with 42Hz...

[carfreak1024]

i was never into the whole arena thing myself eh, but lately i don't know nah, it has a good vibe to it. But 42hz for daily, i assuming its daily as your are not running 10000RMS like all the other competitors out there these days.

i think the best daily tuning frequency would be around 36hz, you get enough lows and it is still going to be very loud, also alot safer for your subs as alot of music carries bass under 45hz. But as installers here we all know that it is impossible to say what tuning frequency will work best in what car.

[viking1705]

i even know of men tuning in high 50's is like wtf..lol...but normally we use btw 40-50hz depending on vehicle..the lowest tuned competition box we have done for extreme playing is 42hz.most other boxes range from 44hz to 48hz give or take.if your tuning high make sure you take your time in designing it eh you dont wanna make mistakes in calculation.

[D.A.B]

i dnt see d sense tunin so high unless it for strictly spl purpose...35hz and under for me i love them low notes yes!

[southside connections]

personal use yes^^^ NOT FOR COMPETITION LOL

can anyone explain this if you all advising from 40-50Hz?

just speculating here but maybe d peak spl freq of jeff's wagon is lowish like in d 40s so even though his enclosure is tuned that low maybe it has a higher freq peak "sweet spot" which is what gives him his score

in my experience u dont really tune a enclosure say 50 hz if 50hz is d peak response of ur vehicle : u tune it a couple hz lower & d enclosure ends up peaking higher than what its tuned to ....

to tell you the truth that box was built for music, and i wanted to see how much i could squeeze out of it. Maybe one day if i get time i'll retune to the car peak.

In the arena there are guys whose music is tuned pretty low and some tuned high.
There is no set figure actually, neither for spl, there is no magic freq. What freqs you want to play, tune accordingly, thats all.

jus wana touch on dis topic again,is louder by ears the same as tunning high?people say arena men boxes is tuned high,but i go some shows i hear songs dat dont go 2 high and hitting all d lows,now,i was tinking d way dey do dis is put a tone of power and the sub and driving the subs below box tuning dats y dey hit d lows,songs like show stopper the second bass dat comes in after the begining
