loud subs?

Recommended Posts

a quick answer to it though is tuning low.

lower frequencies travel further.

So, hehe, if u got money to experiment with, build a ported box tuned to 5hz and let us know how far that travels!

that's a good idea....i think i may try that

Hope you have a big trunk, a 5 hz tune with proper port area will be hella long. In that case you may as well go sealed because they play louder below the tune of a ported box. But not many pieces of music that most people listen to get that low.

I don't think i know anyne that can hear that low actually, besides my friends Flipper and Free Willy. lol

Peoples hearing actually ceases at around 20Hz i believe. So a good ratio of am auditable frequency and sound pressure would be heard the furthest away. Then again, i'm not a sound engineer... just a mechanical engineer :D

20hz is about the threshold of hearing and indeed the lower the frequency the further it travels.

Either way the original goal of this thread is super, super childish and the person asking should be ridiculed and shunned for it. Build a system for yourself or for competition, but not to be a little small dicked dipshit to piss off everyone around you.

The problem with the presented question is that high levels of sound coming from a vehicle that intrude into someone else's space or area is what has given this hobby a bad reputation. Not to mention it is highly inconsiderate. If you want loud, build for competition, not to project your music blocks away.

I was just kidding...20Hz is the threshold of hearing & that's at about 70dB so I wouldn't want that system anyways

Either after a few tickets, stolen equipment, or pissed off people yelling at him. Or maybe just maturity in a few years.
