Does anyone know the mounting depth and cutout diameter of a 15" Eclipse Titanium subwoofer?

Also, does anyone know what an optimal ported enclosure size is for this sub?

The mounting depth is 10", cut-out is 14".

I wouldn't seal that sub.

Port it! You'll need about 2.5-4 cubes tuned somewhere in the neighborhood of 25-40hz.

That's whay I asked for the "optimal ported enclosure size" .

I have an opportunity to buy one in a sealed box, but I was hoping it might fit into the ported box I had for my 15A. The box is 2.2 cubes tuned to 30Hz. A little small, I know, but it worked perfectly for the 15A.

Do you think $500 is too much for that sub in a box (used), if it's in good condition?

Good price, well worth it. The Ti should work pretty well in that enclosure. I have never tried one in that small of an enclosure( my goal with them was always LOUD).

It probably won't be as loud or goes as low as your 15A in that box.

Thanks for the replies. I actually got to try the sub last night. Sounded good but wasn't overly impressive, but I imagine that's because it was sealed with no more than 400 watts going to it. I need a different amp...
