What sub for a 500/1, sealed fg box.

Im doing a fiberglass box right now about 1cu ft. and running off a jl 500/1. I was thinking either an FI SSD or an FI Q. About ~250$ is max i want to spend on the sub. But what would sound best in that enclosure.

why not a w6? jl audio is good sealed, no?

I thought about the w6 but they are exspensive..

Unless im lookin in all the wrong places for them.

320 was the cheapest. i kinda liked the price for 189 from FI.

maybe a eclipse ti or re se, although you would have to buy used.

would the re se be that much better over the SSD?

I have run the RE SE off of the JL 500/1 in a sealed box and ported. It is a great match, the SE can reach full excursion with that amp and sounds good. I do not know abou the SSD, the FIQ needs more of a 1000/1.

Get a 12" w6v2 or a TC-1000.

You could get the TC-9 but it'd be happy with a few more watts, as would the SSD.

My buddy has a 12w6v2 and 500/1 and it sounds AMAZING sealed. One of the best sounding subs I've heard.
