I have an audio control d5.1300 amp (onboard dsp), that needs to power a sub to go in the hatch of a subaru crosstrek. The amps sub channel is rated at 300w @4ohm and 500w@2ohm.
I currently have a cheapo skar 8" sub in a .7 cuft sealed enclosure and to my ear this sub puts out enough "sound" but i want more clarity, tighter punch, and just overall better quality. I would likely maintain a similar sized enclosure maybe going up to 1 cuft max.
The front of the car is Hertz 1650.3 legend components.
I like crisp, clean sound at all frequencies and could care less about going low low low. As is, the 8inch can shake the rearview mirror. Keep in mind I have the dsp to do some tweaking.
Thoughts? and in what configuration should i get the sub (4 ohm vs 2 ohm)? budget $1000 USD but happy to find best bang for buck.
Thanks,
