The Nightshade (12") has a Fs of 43 hz, and they recommend tuning between 30-40hz. And optimal tuning from Jacob was around 34hz i think, that's not really high i think. And i don't think the nightshade 12" can get as low as the HDC3 tuned to 34hz. Only basing on Fs you can't say how a subwoofer will play. (Sorry if you don't really understand it 100%, because i'm from Belgium ) EDIT: Why did i get -1 for the previous post? If i said something that isn't correct, please say so. (i think everything i said was correct.) I guarantee I'll go lower than a similar AQ setup tuned to the recommended 38 Hz. Your thinking about this the wrong way, the enclosure determined low end output in most cases. You might as well put an AQ in a prefabricated enclosure as that's around where they are tuned. They recommend tuning so high so their inefficient drivers can seem louder than they really are. I've heard many AQ setups and it takes a TON of power to make them play below tuning cause they are so damn inefficient. They recomend tuning at 38 Hz. because most people listen to music that peaks there or slightly higher. You are right in that Fs drops a few Hz. after break in and the spiders loosen up, but if they are as stiff as you claim the Fs won't drop much

Hmm, I didn't know that. Good info to have. You have to keep in mind that there are good and bad build houses, the more the amplifiers cost to build obviously the better the amps will be. Amps that are cheap to manufacture are cheap to buy as a customer and of lesser quality. wow i didnt know that i thought sundown desighned them...im sure alot of peeps didnt know that.. Nevermind. Sean said it better than me.

For an older RE XXX I'd consider it, but not a US Amps XXX.

Maybe high tuning is recommended to make the drivers seem louder, and recommend higher tuning so they can say their woofers have such high power handling.

If your worried use allthread with bolts and washers. As for sealing your enclosure just use silicone. You really like over kill don't you?

Aaron's da man!

Thanks Mark! That was a childish argument of that sounded like "My dick is bigger than yours!"

If you want to fiberglass something do the corners.

If they change it to a 2 liter of Orange Soda I'm in! It sounds tasty

Well said Sean.

Mmmmm Alicia Keys

One of the sexiest women alive:

I'll take them! I plan on a small stock pile of Sundown amps. I wanna keep my 3000D.

It'll be the new 3000D

That Lion is gonna kick your ass! He must not like his picture taken form his bad side...

The CVR's performed very well in a ported enclosure. The W0 isn't really comparable, the W0 is more like a COMP. The W3 is similar to a CVR.

My first subs were CVR's, they were awesome for the money. I bought them when they were buy one get one free. I won my first competition with them

Let's see some digits!

Breathe around it bitch!

I'd walk all up and down Shaq at a spelling B! He's a dumb motha fucker.

ughh, ive used screws already, can i re do it with tnuts and bolts? Yes, you sure can. Just drill a hole the sice of the bolts your using where your screw holes are.

Oh choke on that dick bitch! You don't need air woman!
