Again, I had said in one of my previous posts, I already have a passive filter, and I am trying to upgrade to an active filter.OK. then decide what you want..a passive filter or an active filter

But you do not have a sub-woofer. Instead you have an ordinary 12" woofer in an enclosure designed for a 3-way speaker. The woofer is probably flat down to 50Hz then its response drops at 12db/octave for lower frequencies. Its power handling is low so it cannot use bass boost.I already have the driver, speaker box and amplifier, all of which I have previously stated.
The circuit in post #1 has two passive highpass filters at 12.5Hz plus two passive lowpass filters at 16Hz. Since they are passive and are not active then their frequency response around the cutoff frequency is very droopy. Since their frequencies are so close together then the peak at about 14.25Hz will be attenuated and will produce a one-frequency boom sound, if the signal source and woofer can produce sounds that low.
