Super sub for a sealed enclosure..

[Pistonsfan70 10+ year member]

Well I FINALLY sold my Bahns (took forever) and am now in the market for a good super sub (XXX, Brahma, etc) that will handle my NINE.1, have very good SQ, and sound great in a sealed enclosure. Any suggestions???

how much does that ed amp put out, and what ohm loads.

12" XXX or a pair of 10" XXXs

Either driver would work well, as well as numerous others. Personally of the two mentioned I'd probably go with the Brahma because of the lower Le(not that the Le of the XXX is all that high, which it isn't).

12" XXX or a pair of 10" XXXs

It does max RMS at 1 ohm mono, so a pair of DVC 2s isn't gonna work.

I think a pair of Soundsplinter RL-p's or Ascendant Audio Avalanches would be a perfect fit for that amp.

I am lookin for a SINGLE sub, I should've been more specific, sorry. The NINE.1 does 1200 @ 1 ohm mono (under rated though) and does 900 @ 2ohms but I'd rather get a sub that can be wired up at 1 ohm.... Thanks for your help so far but keep em coming. 1 single sub that can handle alot of power and sounds GREAT in a sealed enclosure.

I have a single Brahma 12 with the nine.1 and it sounds amazing ported and sealed. If I were you I'd also look at an IDmax. Both of these subs would work well with that amp.

Don't the Brahma's only handle like 600 rms each?? I don't want to have to worry about my gains on the sub I get, you know??

What about an Eclipse subwoofer, they are excellent sealed box performers.

You don't haveto run that amp at 1ohm to get good sound, theres plenty of power available at 2ohms mono.

Nope. People put way more than 600 on them.....either the XXX or Brahma would work very well, as would the Avalanche and IDMAX suggested. Denim mentioned getting a nice price on the IDMAX, so you might want to contact him about them.

Am I overlookin the IDMAX price post? Where is it?

IDMax a pretty good woofer? I am not the most educated person when it comes to car audio but I haven't heard of them that much (that doesn't make it a bad woofer but I was just wondering)

IDmax/Brahmas etc are all rather unknown for the most part and the IDmax is up there as one of the top SQ supersubs IMO.
