Looking For Really Small Box 15 Sub??

[JCivicHb 10+ year member]

whats up guys, ive recently been thinking about redoin my system, and i think i want a 15 that only needs like a 1 cube box, preferably 1200-1500 rms, and will get loud and sound great doing it. So far ive been looking at eclipse titanium, but they are hard to find, and possibly the new mag, but i havent been able to find much on it. Hopefully some of you can chime in and help me out. Thanks

That's very small for the average 15.

The only sub I can think that will even come close to doing what you want is an IDQ 15 but they're really not that loud and won't get too low in a 1 cube sealed enclosure.

You're MUCH better off looking for a single 12 to fit your goal. Going with a 15" driver in that small of an enclosure is pretty much going to give you a peaky sound in the upper bass and midbass frequencies with a lack of low end extension.

ok, well i guess i was exaggerating a little, but i would ideally like a really small sealed box, so anyone know some 15s that like a really small box??

Dayton 15" HO--if you can do 1.5 cf and some polyfill it would be perfect.

KIcker L7's go in small sealed box.

Maybe not the greatest option but doable.

The dayton is gonna sound alot better in that air space.

eh ive messed around with a lot of dayton stuff, never really been impressed, my buddy had a titanic or whatever, ehh, ive ran a bunch of their HT stuff, plus im not sure it would get loud enough for me.

ok i saw the HO 15, its pretty nice, wonder if they get loud? also do mags like small sealed boxes??

No, it's an SQ woofer--probably go with something else if you want loud.

Fi Q only calls for 2cu ft min and would love the power you have. The one i heard got loud and sounded pretty good and it was in 2cu ft off of a hifonics bxi1600 so prolly 1300 rms

I love my Kicker CVX off 900rms in a 1.5 sealed enclosure, is a 12 though. My Fi Q I had in there was doing a little over 138 on a TL and this seems louder to me. Not sure what your definition of loud is though. I drive a Ford Focus ST and still have plenty of room for all the baby stuff, even a walker, lol!
