Posted March 11, 200916 yr Yesterday I finally got my ported box built, but now i need a little help with tuning my amp. I had the frequency set a little high because of the temporary sealed box i was using, but now i want to tune it for the lows. The box is 2.0ft^3 tuned to 32hz with a Fi Q12. This is all in a 96 honda accord off of 800 watts. What should i aim to tune my amps frequency at? Any help would be very appreciated.
March 11, 200916 yr what amp? What is this "frequency?" The lowpass crossover, a subsonic filter, bass boost center?
March 11, 200916 yr 80HzJust set it there to begin with, play around with it a little and see where you like it, but you probably won't want to go much higher
March 11, 200916 yr Author Thanks I just tuned it down a little and it sounds alot better.I just finished my box last night and didnt have enough time to change my settings, so i wanted to see what everyone else liked their settings at. Thanks for the help.
