12s for sealed?

[Proximity 10+ year member]

I want some subs that will get as loud as possible in a sealed enclosure (1-2ish ft^3). I plan to get some Fi Qs but was wondering if anyone has some other/better ideas as to what I could get. I'd like the subs to be able to take 1000w a piece.

I don't like that they don't come in dual 1s..and that they're 70+lb (though I have no idea how heavy Qs are, maybe they're similar)

Oh, and they're way to expensive. Don't want to spend (much) more than $250 a pop.

How about some used IDmax's? I have mine in 1.5 gross each and love it.

Si Magv4. 1000rms rated and call for right around 1.0cft IIRC. 250 shipped last time I looked, but has been awhile.

More of a SQ sub, but requires only a sealed box. Very efficent and gets loud off 500rms....actually many believe that is their sweet spot. They say not to give it more than 1000rms.

If you want a good mix, hit up an IDq or IDmax, the q is more like the mag though and the Max will get louder. Would have to hit up used for the Max though to get in your price range.

Very nice sub, but shine ported.

I have the older ones, which I have mine ported @ 1.0cft each. Friends has his in even a smaller box, ported and it slams in his Envoy........the same sub you have. Sound good ported too on all music.

mag/idmax. Had a pair of maxs on 2000 watts sealed, and it was loud, but sounded awesome.

My friend just got 2 Treo TSX 12s for cheap and they sound great sealed. They only take about 500rms a piece but sound good.
