[QUOTE="Jandry, post: 8495158, member: 664430"] Im flexible to an extent. The absolute max actually is a wedge shape: 23w X 9h x 13d (bottom) x 11d (top) (.97982 cuft) Ideally id want something (or less): 21w X 7h x 13d (rectangle) (.71 cuft) Im currently leaning towards the Sundown SD-3 10 d2 (wired in series for 4 ohm load). Calls for .4-.6cuft according to most sites- I can give that and more depending on what Sundown says. Its design means the "stands" holding it from the floor only add 2" to the height (since the woofer only needs 1.5" of space in front of it). Im hesitant because I only have 400 watts to throw, but its number one currently. Daytons seem to either need too much box or too much power. Most others are $400+, too much box, or too much power. Still looking and open to any advice.. **EDIT** Ok.. its hard to keep all this straight when some specs are useless, etc. Rereading I note most of you suggest a 12 since im rolling single sub. I have the room for a box to drive an SD3 12 d2- so heres the big question: With my limited power, am I better off using a smaller driver (10) due to less mass or whatever, or am I better off using a larger driver (12) for more cone area? And do I have enough wattage to drive either? As long as its balanced with the P660C's I have, ill be happy. [/QUOTE]
