Hmmm, I didn't see anything on that site suggesting a 52hz tuning frequency....is that what you get from the dims on that ported diagram?

I still don't understand why they would have you build a box, tune it with a passive radiator and then put it 180 degrees away from the driver.....

Looks a little odd to me.....
