What is port freq (Fb) and cut-off freq (F3) mean for a subwoofer box?
My subwoofer's manual says recommended box is 35hrtz at 3.0cubic feet or 32hrtz at 4.0cubic feet. Now I am looking at a 3.0 cubic feet box which says port freq (FB) is 40hrtz and cut-off freq (F3) is 35hrtz. What do these mean? Thanks!!!

Fb is the physical tuning of the port with the woofer loaded into it. F3 is how low it can safely play without the possibility of the woofer unloading and blowing.
