found out the big problem
some of u may remeber when my subs were producing little bass and tilting the box fixed it, however i had no idea how muhc bass was actually being blocked. the manual for my subs said to tune em to 350hz so they always have been, my friend just got a sub and said the place that installed tuned it to 120, i thought that odd, and he was pushing baout the amperage with much more bass, granted he has a 12 and it'* better brand than mine, but still, so i tuned mine down to 120 and BAM like 3x more bass, now i need to get dynamat.

Are you talking about the High Pass Cutoff on the amp?? If not and you are tuning the box both #'* seem high - you sure it wasn't 35 Hz they wanted them at?

you tuned the ports to 120 hz? sounds like midbass to me... 40 or so sounds more apropriate, is there something you are not telling us? :o

i agree i would not set the high end over 100 and i use 80. as far as tuning the box you do it with port length and it should be tuned around 32 in most cases for a starting point.
