Silver Member Username: PitbullguyChi Town Post Number: 110 Registered: Oct-06 | So i wanna buy a dual 12" ported box off EBAY for two assassins. The VAST majority of boxes on EBAY do not specify what they are tuned to. I mean i know it's not like theres a knob on the box you turn to adjust tuning. The only logical thing i can think of is that it depends on like the dimensions and cubic ft. of space and stuff...so using those specs, is there like a formuala or something for me to figure out what the box is tuned to? I dont think i can just ask cuz they're like EBAY power sellers who probly aren't gonna answer my question. Thanks in advance...BAWLIN! (omg that song is like IMBEDDED in my brain right now) |

What the box is tuned to is the note the box will peak at. Subs are meant to play at and above the tuning freq. They can also play a little lower, but not too much or the sub will move uncontrolled and could damage it. |
