lower frequencies have more energy and do induce a good bit of movement, but if you're system can't reproduce em loud enough kinda pointless. I'd say 40Hzish is good in many systems...

I agree, the lower the better... but dang, in populated areas that is a lot of bad karma coming your way...

Also i have a 2 channel Power Acoustik 2x150watt amp bridged into 300watt @4ohm running a 15" Kicker F15C Freeair in a 3.8CuFt Ported enclosure i have it tuned to 42.8Hz would this be enough power to go much lower in freq. It shakes my neighbours house windows and my house windows when i pull in the drive as it is, but i want to make it set off car alarms and stuff LOL (MISCHEVIOUS)!!

IF oyu can redo your port area maybe you can tune lower try 35 hz or even 30-32 and see if it is still loud enough for you. Try Oucasts first album first track. southernplayalisticcadillacmusic BOOM

I rather enjoyed 23 hz at full volume (Crossfire VR 2000d) on my JL 10W7's, it was violent enough to make my rear windows roll down an inch or so

I built a box and some guy calculated it out to around 44 Hz. Its for one 12" L5. I was thinking of putting 4 12" L5's in a 4dr blazer around there. 44 Hz is a bit high, how do you calculate the frequencies and how would i make mine lower?
