[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8902400, member: 591582"] If you don't want to build or have your own box built then your options are gonna be limited to prefabs. From my experience box designing, you really want to be able to fit the deepest woofers possible in your situation where depth is limited, just as a general rule when it comes to picking out your box. That's usually the make or break when it comes to a sub being good and performing well is how much mounting depth you have so you can fit a sub in there that has enough excursion and a large enough motor to hit all the notes you want it to hit. Sub designs have come a long way, but usually shallow mounts suffer with the lows. With ported, you'll get a lot more lows, but also a limited bandwidth. From what you described, maybe the best thing would try to get the deepest sealed box you can get and put the most cone area in it, when it comes to making it sound as good and as loud as possible. Biggest airspace and deepest sealed box maybe and most cone area, unless you want do ported. [/QUOTE]
