Sub box loosing loudness ?
-
Hey hows it going ? Like ive asked before when I turn my subs up pretty loud they seem to lose the loudness and the bump and become a rumble. My gain is all set right. But what I was thinking is remembering my sub box has the two subs sharing the space. They aren't separate so could they be canceling each other out ? If thats the case im prob going to go out and buy a box either a sealed or bandpass. I was also wondering how does a bandpass sound with rock, metal, etc.....As a side note someone should make a video on how to set the gain be much easier for people to understand instead of reading lol. Thanks

Answer:
There is a limit on how fast the cone can move. The louder it is the farther it moves back and forth. If it is loud the cone moves before it goes all the way back. That is why it sounds "muddy". The high end speakers are super stiff with huge magnets. Set your gain as low as possible and turn up the radio as high as you usually jam out. Slowly raise the gain and close your trunk and sit in your driver seat. Then raise the gain a little more over and over until they reach the point where the quality suffers. Different music styles have different points. Try to find a good average. Do this some were isolated or the neighbors might call the cops on you.

yeah, sounds like they're canceling. and as far as bandpass goes, it sounds like you're playing your subs under water. they'll do nothing but give you muddy sound. i don't know what your particular brand of scotch is when it comes to rock/metal but if you're into lamb of god, or something similar, you'll need some nice tight bass, which you'll get from a type 1 box (sealed). but if you listen to some lighter stuff, like some evergreen terrace, you'd do best with a type 2 box (ported). in the end though, it's all down to personal preferances...
