[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8662322, member: 614752"] The port width is 5" so just make sure you have 5" between that little turning the corner piece and the back wall. That said, I'd suggest a bigger box and higher tuning if you really want to get loud. As far as power DD-Z is a top of the food chain SPL sub. They're designed to take 10,000W bursts for 3 seconds but really the coil is only going to be good for 1200W continuous power since they go for low MMS in these types of designs. Also with "super stiff" suspension this may not even be a great option for a daily driver, you may not see the gains this motor provides until you get into bigger power. If you only plan to run a 750W rated low end amp you'd probably get as loud or louder with a 2.5" coil sub. If you can't make the box larger than 6 cube net you're definitely selling yourself short with such little power. 6 cube on that kind of 18" sub is if you plan to run it on legit 5K amp but you'd need to be always mindful of heat. On lower power you'll want to go with about 8-10 cube box or even just try to trade that out for a sub and amp combo that works better for you. DD-Z with composite cone should fetch you 1000$ in trade value or thereabouts which is plenty enough to get a more daily oriented sub + solid 2K amp. Nice piece of equipment for sure. [/QUOTE]
