Help with mounting depth please

I'd get a sub made for sealed boxes if you're going to stick with sealed.

What would you recommend? I don't mind spending the money on a good sub that will perform in my sealed enclosure specs.

6.5" mount depth

.95 cu ft

If that was the enclosure you had, what sub would give you the best output in that enclosure...

Budget... absolutely no more than $350 for the sub. I would like to use the Kicker zx750.1 that I already have, but am open to buying a new amp if there is a sub out there worth buying a new amp for this size enclosure.

This is for a single sub?

Yes... preferably, because I need the floor space on atleast one side of my truck for when I pick up cases of paper and such for my print shop.

IXL-10 v2 SL [iXL-10 v2 SL] - $149.00 : Mach 5 Audio

These are my two favorite "budget" subs for sealed boxes, unfortunately you'd probably want to get a different amp if using one of those.

What about either of those subs in a 12 for that same enclosure?

This looks like a really good option for me! I would probably do a single 12 on my Kicker 06 zx750.1 amp. Thoughts on 2 or 4 ohms?
Is the FI SSD mount depth rated the same way? If so it will work, thoughts on that?

I can't speak for the SSD, but I have a feeling it probably is measured the same way. If you are gonna do a single 12. get a 2 ohm and keep the amp turned down, it's better to control the power than have to switch woofers to get more.

They'd like to have more room, like 1.5-1.75ft^3.

Why wouldn't my amp work on either of these? I could wire the Mach S to 2 ohms...

Sorry, I'm used to back when Mach 5 only had D2 coils on their IXL's. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Yes, it will work good on your amp if you get the D1 version.

Thats what I was thinking! I like the price tag along with the fact that I can use the amp I already have! Thanks for the help.

I'd go with the IXL since you have 750 watts available.
