10" Sub for small enclosure

[TechFreak 10+ year member]

My neighbors boy has a 1999 Camaro that he wants to put a sub into. He doesn't want to get a box that takes up the whole rear section,but instead use what is called a cubby hole box that fits into a open area in the rear of the car. I don't know what to tell him to get sub wise. Here's the box specs...

Mounting Depth: 8"

Air Space: 0.75 Cubic Feet

I thought may be a Dcon since it lists a .75 as a sealed option which it is. would anything else be a better fit? Thanks

SA-10 is not an optimal sealed woofer. Dcon is a good option.

There's the IA 187: 187-10 D4

Sundown SD-10 (conservatively rated at 500wRms): Sundown Audio SD-2 10" D2 500 Watt Dual 2 Ohm SD Series

If you're willing to look at an 8, the Sundown e8v2. VERY small sealed, you can even go ported at under a cubit foot: SSA Shop - Sundown Audio E8 sub woofer

Lastly, the ever popular for sealed enclosures, they Dayton subs. HF Ref, HO Ref and Titanic (respectively):

Dayton Audio RSS265HF-4 10" Reference HF Subwoofer 4 Ohm 295-460

Dayton Audio RSS265HO-4 10" Reference HO Subwoofer 4 Ohm 295-462

Dayton Audio TIT280C-4 10" Titanic Mk III Subwoofer 4 Ohm 295-414

I put a Kicker C-10 SVC in a 98 like that..Sounded decent with 200x Streat machine, by Autotek.Just be careful to screw anything down as the Gas tank is near(FYI).Faced the sub up at the rear at the glass in a sealed 1.4cuft 3/4 MDF box, and sounded just fine

Dayton HO would like that space ported if you can squeeze in a little more for port displacement...
