Thanks Steve
deeper bass is what seems to be louder to your ears... SPL has many more factors that change with each and every vehicle... found that most integras I worked with peaked at 53-55Hz

ok if that is all you want to know... 30hz will sound low and deep and travel. people will hear you coming from far away... 50 hz will be still be pretty deep but will be more punchy and hard...

hint ported will be much louder when in your car winows closed and will get a little louder when you open them... sealed will be sort of loud when windows are closed but will appear to have a huge increase in sound when you open the windows

[/QB]</font>[/QUOTE]interesting, how does your theory work when different cars, woofers and alignments are used, or is it just always that way, how about if the box is tried in different locations in the same car, say, in the trunk, in the back seat, in the front seat for instance [/QB][/QUOTE]


do me a favor... try it then complain that you wasted your time... the guy asked a simple question... I replied in as general as possible way to create minimal confusion... and btw...most of the time someone will place a subwoofer box in the cargo area of the vehicle not the back seat or passenger seat! where it will make your statement a total waste of time

I could answer your questions..but thats not what it is about... its about answering bigsliks question... and you chose to correct my simple answer

a guy off the street walks into a store and wants a box that will play low... will you put it in his passenger seat? think about it... especially if he drives a 1990 Acura Integra

you could probably use some fancy theory to explain this but if the guy asks the type of question he asked in the first place chances are he will not understand some fancy theory either.
MTA gave a simple enough answer.....or was he supposed to get into tangents and cosins just for you?

well he did strike me as simple thus i find MTA's answer sufficient enough. In addition, I would like to point out to you that the original thread owner has replied thanking MTA for his answer and indicating that the answer given was exactly what he was looking for.
thanks for comming out.
