Single 12" sub (relativley shallow, small enclosure)?

[BIG-SMOOTH 10+ year member]

I'm pretty well set on running a pair of SS Rli-8's for my substage, but I want to see if there are any single 12" subs out there that fit my criteria that may be worth looking into. I will be running the sub(s) off a Rockford punch150. I haven't received the amp yet, but the birthsheets I've seen from other owners tend to run in the 900-1000 watt range when bridged into a mono 4 ohm load. This will be going in a standard cab silverado and I'm 6'7" and I frequently carry passengers over 6' so the seats are not going to be able to be moved very far. Here's what I'm looking for...

either dual 2 ohm or single 4 ohm

works well in an enclosure size of 1.25^ft or smaller (sealed)

maximum mounting depth of 6"

run well off of 900-1000 watts

priced under $400

I'm going for a daily driver setup. I want something that will get reasonably loud, but my main concern is for sound quality. I listen to mostly punk/metal/rock with some rap on occasion.

I haven't found much that meets all my criteria so if you guys know of anything that will work for me and be comparable to a pair of 8" rli's in both SQ and SPL I'm all ears.

I have a 12" Custom TC9 (motor actually came from a SOundsplinter RL-i) that I'd sell for $200 plus shipping and PP fees. I have a std cab s10, and I can fit it behind the seat with plenty of legroom. Around 6.5" mounting depth. Looking at around 1-1.5 cubes for a sealed enclosure. Dual 2 ohm coils. Shoot me a PM if you're interested, and I'll send you pics and any other info you need.
