A box tuned to 40hz would be more of a SPL competition box. I would not recommend it for daily...but you could run it daily (just set you SSF right) By tuning that high, you are gonna have a boomy box w/ little or no low-end. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2359 Registered: Mar-04 | 35hz daily wouldnt be that bad...not that good either. IMO, 30-32hz is about perfect for an SX15 daily. Just give it ~4.5-5cuft. |

Silver Member Username: Terry6405Sullivan, IN US Post Number: 524 Registered: Sep-05 | i just listened to some test tones on my sub and they were pretty loud but i heard a funny noise and when i got back to my sub i noticed that a part of the sub wasnt mounted flush and air is leaking out of it. i put my hand over it and it sounded perfect so thats something i gotta do tomarro, fix the hole and mount it flush at leakless hopefully this will improve my listening |
