Whats the best 10" sub for a .46 cu ft sealed box

[Dee Dubb]

I'm looking at replacing my 10" audison sub. I bought a memphis sub and it sound horrible. Then I realized my box was to small for that sub. Can someone recommend a replacement for my audison 10d sub? My budget is up to 500.00. My box is very small, it's only .46 cu ft.

10w6 would probably work in that. I have a 10w6v2 in a box that is basically a 11" cube internal dimension. Minus the sub displacement it works out to around .65 cubic feet.

Daytons?

Sundown SD-3 or SD-4 are sealed low cubic feet subwoofers. ICR what they call for exactly but you can email them and find out.

Daytons are probably your best choice.

Check out the new "high excursion" models of the Dayton Reference sub.

Dayton ultimax is the best small sealed box sub Dayton offers for sound quality. The HE 10 is 800 watts RMS and the ultimax is 500 RMS. In a sealed box the Ultimax wants around .6 for the 10. I would put a half pound of polyfill in the box personally, but I would get some arguments on the effectiveness of it. I do believe in polyfill for sealed boxes.

F3 on the reference HE in a .5 sealed box is about 60 HZ. F3 on the ultimax in the same sealed box is 45 HZ. The ultimax has a nicer fuller sound and has plenty down low in .5 sealed.

I have a Kappa 100.9 and a Kappa Infinite Q in a box that is just under .9cuft. I used an PDX 5 then later a an PDX M9. Sounded good, not boomy but bass was solid regardless of musical choice. They can be had for around $150, every once in a while you can find them for sale in the $99- range.

Thanks for all of the responses. I'm going with a bigger box and a euphoria 10.
