Bronze Member Username: CawbPost Number: 23 Registered: May-06 | would Type Rs be worth the extra money or should i just get cvrs |
Gold Member Username: GoatinOhio U.S.A Post Number: 1245 Registered: Jan-06 | I have 2 R's so of coarse I am pro R.lol But I also have a few friends that have CVR's and even they will admit my R's sound better. But CVR's do shake the hell out of shiz. If thats all you want. |
Silver Member Username: ReefPost Number: 206 Registered: Oct-05 | yea i just want it to be loud, you knwo how you sit in a car with a good system and you get that feeling that its kinda hard to breath will my kickers do that? |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 787 Registered: Oct-05 | Ya if everything is installed right. Especially to a song by bass mekanic song # 14 on his reload cd disc 1, kinda feels weird, hits really hard then stops and repeats that quickly and it really makes u feel weird man. |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 3991 Registered: Oct-05 | i kinda like the cvrs. i am using a pair of cvrs right now and they sound good and loud. i used to own a pair of type Rs too. the type Rs has a slight advantage in sq but not worth the price difference. |

Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 837 Registered: Oct-05 | Kool dev wut u gonna tune em to?? I like my cvrs they just lack sq, but its all good they get loud. |
Silver Member Username: StnorrisEldridge, IA US Post Number: 197 Registered: Apr-06 | Nick - When you build a ported box make sure it is tuned LOW. i had a dual ported box with 2 cvrs, and a a8000t, tuned at 38hz, and it sounded HORRIBLE. i had everything right, the box just sucked at that high. the sq sucked so bad, i just sold the subs, and the box. it got annoying to listen to. the only thing they would work on was rap with really long notes. They didnt hit very hard at all. |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 843 Registered: Oct-05 | lol steven, did u get new subs?? All i listen to is rap and all i like is the long notes, but i like the long low notes. TUNE IT 34hz or lower NICK AND DEV. |

Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 1385 Registered: Oct-05 | i would take cvrs by far |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 852 Registered: Oct-05 | hey bassman u got ur cvrs ported @ 32hz right?? How do u think 28hz will sound?? |
Silver Member Username: DrivingrecklessNear tampa, Florida United state... Post Number: 580 Registered: Apr-06 | MY TREO IS PORTED TO 32 HZ AND IT GETTS LOWER THEN A STRIP DANCER |
Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 768 Registered: Jan-05 | Just don't tune below the drivers FS. |
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 1390 Registered: Oct-05 | 28 is a lil low IMO. with those i would stay with 32-34. |

Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 771 Registered: Jan-05 | I tune all my boxes to 28-30 hertz. I like to shake the s,hit out of everything. The best thing is when I roll up beside a kid at a light with like a pair of p2's or a w3 or sumthin and play some 25 hertz tones and he looks around trying to figure out why he can feel his intestines shaking but not hear another system. |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 856 Registered: Oct-05 | lol so hey nick, thats what some systems are tuned to, the ones that sound bad azz outside the car when someone is passin by? Do u think 30hz will be good?? Is there a big difference in tuning an enclosure between 28hz and 30hz?? Watz tha difference in sound?? |
Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 774 Registered: Jan-05 | No, you will not notice the difference between 28 and 30. A tuning in the mid 20's will give the best response for SQ out of a ported enclosure. For SQL most tune between 28 and 34 hertz. 35-42 hertz is more of an spl tune for rap.(but you will lack low bass extension) anything over 45 hertz is for competition, pure spl. |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 857 Registered: Oct-05 | What are most peoples boxes tuned to?? It seems as mine are never tuned like other peoples. Like some systems sound bad azz when approaching you and they are usually with less power and crappier subs. What the fu*k is the problem man?? Thanx. |
Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 777 Registered: Jan-05 | If you box is poorly baced that can take away from the sound. what type of subs and amp do you have? |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 859 Registered: Oct-05 | 2 12" cvrs and a lanzar 268. Dont hate on the amp man, the problems not my equipment cuz my uncles 2 12" sony xplode subs with his 1600 watt sony amp in a slot ported enclosure from audio express with the port inbetween about 3" wide kinda sounded the way i wanted mine to but i have no clue where the hell to tune my box too. |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 860 Registered: Oct-05 | What do u think nick?? |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 861 Registered: Oct-05 | lol |
Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 778 Registered: Jan-05 | Well you are giving those subs close to thier RMS. What type of car are they in. I would build a 5 cuft box and tune it to 30 hertz. |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 862 Registered: Oct-05 | They are in a Ford Focus 03 not hatchback. I usually have the seats down. I just had two 2.20cuft ported enclosure 1 tuned to 32hz and 1 tuned to 35. I had to go sealed for now which i hate it,but i have no space. What do u think about each 2 cuft tuned to 30hz?? |
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 1394 Registered: Oct-05 | those sub will do best in ported tuned to 32. wut kind of music do u listen to? b/c if u like rap, thats the tune for u |
Silver Member Username: Thomas_gNM Post Number: 863 Registered: Oct-05 | I listen to nuthing but rap. I had 1 tuned to 32hz but ill see when i get my mdf. Well then ill make 2 ported enclosures this time PVC tuned to 32hz with 2cuft of airspace each, think this will work?? Thanx. |
