Just forget about ALL of those misleading box diagrams. Just tell us what sub it is and the specs or do your own math http://www.carstereo.com/help/Articles.cfm and tell us what you come up with. |
Okay I will re-word it. Bigshot44, you will not be happy with what your 55Hz box would do on music. Playing the music that you listed will be mostly peaking 20Hz below the tuning of your box. At 6.5ft^3 you will have little to no control over the cone of your subwoofer resulting in not only bottoming the driver out, but also more than likely leading to total mechanical failure.
"Burp" boxes sound horrible on music. (Trying to pick my words carefully so they don't continue to get picked apart, I am defining music as songs with basslines between 30-50 Hz. The reason why most people online hop on to get some quick audio advice and add some "booooooooom" to their trunks and leave.) They are a "burp" box for a reason.
