  • fake and gay

  • 3hz fapfapfapfapfap

  • man I have had that program for over a year and know next to nothing about it, the only thing I used it for was to peace together audio tracks etc. and now you with this video has opened new door for playing around further with this program so thanks for this video!!!!!

  • whatz the name of the programm

  • @minisepp114 Audacity

  • sexy

  • Hah glhf with those speakers. They're probably fried now. Your sub needs to MOVE in order to cool the voice coils. If you're just sending in 1Hz you're basically cooking them.

  • Even though there is no sound on your vid. the flamers here have still got it wrong, cos thier little puter speakers wouldnt be able to reproduce 1-3-6 hz regardless. The little amps in them filter out anything under about 70hz,. Besides, 1-3-6 hz are inaudible, you can feel them but you cant hear them.

  • Shit, so many people flaming you man.

    That's a fucking great sub, I can't believe it picks up 1HZ! Good job.

  • no there is no sound, its obvious, cant u guys just check the volume bars on your windows desktop???? jeez...

    othere then that nice woofer..

  • lower hz is deeper but once u go so low u cant hear much

  • does the sub produces deeper bass at low hz? or higher?

    anybody? thanks.

  • lower ofcourse but anything below 20Hz or so you can't even hear but you can feel it. But anyways it's gonna quite an expensive sub that's gonna play down to 20Hz, the lowest i heard was 29Hz on Dali mentor sub.

  • @anchor213 Lower hertz gives that deeper sound. When you increase the hertz the sound gradually gets higher pitched.

    Search for a 1HZ to 20,000HZ sweep on YouTube to understand it better.

  • you can feel that though....when it gets that low thats when you feel it in your chest...

  • waste of time. only an elephant or blue whale can hear below 20Hz

  • lol at 1 hz the sub was like im to tired

  • i cant hear shit 0_o

  • bad sub or no sub.

  • @ToxicBarracuda headphones my nigga

  • lol don't think the vid has sound lol JK.

  • Well infrasonic low frequencies often dont have much sound since its lower than normal hearing its mostly felt but requires a great deal of subs and power and maybe keep the infrasonic low frequencies crossed-off so that they play a small part as and when it comes in.

    The rest of 20Hz upwards to 80 or 120Hz can be handled in by another load of subs.

  • correct, yet i shake my whole room badly with this program lol. only 2 15s, yet myn are in a monster custom vented u-port box. tuned crazy low

  • do you have a cross over on those subs?

    reply to the youtube account natexbotxx please.

  • this video has no sound!

  • It has no sound because you cant hear 6hz its to low.Maybe if your a dog

  • Hmm a dog ? I`d go for an elephant.

  • lol idk but when i turned this on i got a headache

  • any of my subs can do that when I turn the volume to max or high enough..nothing special.

  • people make that claim because event though the hardware can produce the frequency any thing below or way above a certain frequency is inaudible to the human ear.

  • Er, scott, your hardware may well be able to flap to 1Hz, but as for "playing frequencies below 20Hz"? No. It's not a matter of us not being able to hear it, there's just no sound being made.  10Hz on your sub is likely around -30dB compared to 25Hz, ie producing 1/1000th the sound energy. 1Hz probably 1/1000th of that.

  • The speakers should be fine its the AMP you should be carefull about since the low resistance allows the AMP to pump more power intot he speakers maybe frying it, but as long as you dont play too loud it should be fine.

    And if the AMP is good it should be able to handle it without any issues at all.

  • I tested my Logitech Z-2300 sub, it handled 11Hz. Stopped moving at 10Hz.

    I was not expecting that cause the specs say it got a frequency response of 35Hz-20.000Hz.

  • Thank you very much for the Audacity link

    Successfully able to hear sine wave down to 09Hz on my Creative ear phones EP-630. Below that!! i dont know whether playin or not, cant hear anything

  • yo sub has no punch what so ever

  • At 6 Hz, subwoofers don't have "punch." The wave is inaudible! A bass kick would be a punch, but that is a totally different kind of sound. This is a constant, low-frequency wave.

  • how to cook your voice coil.

    silly

  • i didnt hear anything :rollseyes: haha

  • It is said that elephants communicate in this way over vast distances!

  • get sound

  • where is the sound... :P... vey nice video...

  • Sounds that low wouldn't be picked up by a recording mic, and couldn't be heard by humans even if it were

  • wut program u using??????

  • audacity and the best is that this is a freeware lol

  • so its free?

  • Yes.

  • Audacity

  • the partysqaud - stuk ;)

  • Even a 15" long-throw woofer cannot move anywhere near enough air at those frequencies - the spls will be way down, no matter how much power you feed it. In fact the cone moved less at 1 Hz than at 6, suggesting the frequency is way, way out of the speakers bandwidth.

  • rubbish. send a signal to a speaker and it will play it. whether a frequency is truely below a speaker's makes no differnce, it will still try to produce that frequency.

    the fact that it moves less at 1hz will be down to either the box its in (if its sealed) or the dc protection on the amp which, normally, will ramp things down from about 2hz and less to stop the amp driving DC signals and destroying itself.

  • jmiller, you said it yourself: "It will still try..." Try is the word. It cannot. Among many other things it is limited by its resonance frequency, and the cone area at these ultra-subsonic frequencies would have to be in-sane-ly large to produce a output.

  • you are talking about two different issues. there is a difference between moving at a given frequency, and producing an audible output.

    if you know anything about resonance frequencies, you'll know that a subwoofer will become 'unloaded' below the tuning point of the box its in. even if it produces no output whatsoever, you can still get it moving across its entire available excursion with relatively no input power.

  • addition: sealed boxes behave differently, even with a relatively small box and a big subwoofer (mines a sealed 15") it's still easy to get it moving down in to single digits with a relatively little input. although i'm only using a 'small' amp (2x100rms) i can still get it moving rather well. in fact, i may just post a video to show this.

  • It's not ME who is talking about 2 different issues - it might be US? Well certainly if you are talking about just getting the cone to move. But whats the point in that? By the way: 1, 3 or 6 Hz is not "audible", I believe?

  • Well, jmiller, I do know that IF we are talking about making sound (!) then a sealed box will produce more output at very low frequencies than a vented one, all things being equal. It begins to roll off at a higher frequency than a similar vented box, but more importantly rolls off less steeply. Contrary to what you in fact said - if it wasn't a different issue. Anyway, the mother of all "rubbish" is when you say "send a signal to a speaker and it will play it"! Sorry, couldn't help it. Friends?

  • yes it is you. look back at what you said "in fact the cone moved less at 1 Hz than at 6, suggesting the frequency is way, way out of the speakers bandwidth."

    that statement is not true is it. the cone will not move any less at 1hz because of the speaker, it will be the equipment driving it for reasons i explained. that is what i take issue with. like i said, creating an audible output is a different issue entirely to just 'moving' so yes, you are talking about two different things.

  • you are right about one thing however - sealed boxes rolling of a lot shallower. i use a sealed 15" in my HT system for this reason. one drawback is power handling and therefor outright SPL, but the huge advantage is that the system is capable of driving right down to 8hz almost perfectly flat. i couldnt do that with a ported 12" i had before, despite its output at 20hz and above (>110db). im very happy with it now:)

  • antigravity

  • i have that program and its realy good to use ^^

    but now i know how to play whith hz :D

  • It's possible to a human being to feel and maybe hear frequencies below 20hz if there is enogh sound preasure. (fan woofers can do that) And you dumb fucks there's no sound on this video and if there was sound than you would hear distorded sound and the sound of cone flaping.

  • There is sound, but the camera mic is really low-fi and would only catch the sound of whooshing air at best.

  • I disagree, the camera is certanly low-fi but it should capture at least mouse click and any tipe of noise.Take a look at other videos with ultra crappy mic's they have sound, distorded as hell but it's there. So this video dosen't have any sound, don't need to be a genious to figure it out.

  • Oops, you're right! I must have taken out the audio track altogether when exporting this video, since it was pretty moot. My bad.

  • @Dantenv you can feel those frequencies, but not hear them. If I put my leg close to my sub and play 10HZ I can feel it easily.

  • Cadence makes great amplifiers. Check out their outlet store online for great prices.

  • off course you cant hear anything... the human ear only hear frequences between 20hz and 20000hz... study a litle...

  • Study a bit more adn you'll find that many can hear below 20hz.

    Personally I can hear 16hz, only when its roughly 115db on my SPL meter though.

  • Comment removed

  • Can't hear anything?

  • does anyone know if cadence is a good quality amp? Thanks

  • i use audacity too. i listen to my laptop through my philips mcm530 stereo via usb. i had no idea that my stereo i bought at target (lol) could produce 1 hz!!!! its actually a REALLY good stereo and i recCommend it to EVERYONE

  • I know the audio card have a high pass filter over 20 Hz. It's that right or not?.

  • i didn't think it was so much the sub not being able to handle the frequency, as much as getting a 1 hz tone to the sub.

  • not bad,i`ve also uploaded a video of a 10" woofer playing 2 hertz,but its not moving like your woofer,how many watts does this woofer have.

  • read the description! dumb fuck.

  • hey u dont have to be soo nasty in replying that .. u can always reply in a good manner

  • is that program you're useing called Audacity? I wanna try that test you did except on my bass cabinet.

  • Yep, it's a great open-source audio editor for Mac and PC. search for "audacity sourceforge" or something, you'll find it.

  • Er.. To quote Monty Python, "Is this the right room for the argument?" ;)

  • Ok, that's all well and good, you got 1 cycle a second... But, you didn't really even need a program for that... Even a simple "pop" from turning on equipment can have the same results. On older equipment (that I used YEARS ago)... Turning on the soundboard while the amp is on will produce the same exact effect. It's really no big deal, and a waste of time.

  • ur a waste of time
