Now, with the matching passive radiator, the Fs changes to 10.4Hz, allowing the sub to go even lower, if possible, in the right environment.

ok...and "F" meaning Frequency, right? got it.

but im still confused how you can manually tune it? is it a turn of a knob or is it just by the environment you put it in?
