that is 1.5 cu ft after port displacement

Need some suggestions on a sub that will do really well in a small enclosure.

36hz will be the optimal tuning fq

it will be going in an 03 Ram 1500 and i will be taking out the center console and replacing it with a sub box. sub firing down port firing forward...

it will look something like this box

firing under the seat maybe?

3 1508's would be very nice off that power and space

Nightshade.

Put some port area on that enclosure!

A 10" Alpha wpould be perfect for that amount of air space and tuning.

It won't take 3k though...

What kind of power are you working with?

i already have a 12" alpha i am prolly going to throw in there ..

thread title says 3kw? which is too much for the alpha

Yeah...

I would go with a Nightshade 10" then. Or a HW 10" built for SQL.

Why 3000 watts?

Prolly not gonna find a single sub that can take that abuse and still fit in that small of a space

good Luck

Maybe BTL 12
