I have made a custom enclosure for my 1992 Acura Legend. it fits snug in the trunk with access to everything i need. However it is a small enclosure and I suspect my choices for subs are minimal now.

This is a drawing of the box.

So my question, which 10" sub(s) would be the best candidate for the box, considering the small cubic footage, and lack of depth (7")?

I have not done any bracing yet because I'm unsure if i can get away with 2 subs yet.

TIA

I gather you plan on mounting the subs on the 11" side. However, assuming you've used 3/4" MDF to build this box, the length of that side on inside of the box will be 9.5". So you need a sub that needs a hole less than 9.5" in diameter, and a mounting depth of less than 7".
Alright... how bout:
JL Audio 10W3v3 This one has a mounting depth of 5.93", and mounting diameter of 9.0625"

Alpine Type-R Mounting Depth: 172mm (6.8'')/ Mounting Diameter: 231mm (9.1'')

Alpine TypeS Mounting Depth: 110 mm (4.3'')/ Mounting Diameter: 244 mm (9'')

JBL GTO1014 Mounting Depth 5-7/8"/ Mounting Diameter 9"

99% of reputable brands will have all the specs you need for finding subs that will fit your space. You need to determine what the volume is of your sealed enclosure, then compare that to your list of subs that will fit, and can utilize the amount of volume you've created with that enclosure.

Assuming you also used .75" for material, you would have a gross volume of 1.04 cu.ft. or 1.2cu.ft. if it is 1/2" material. There are lots of options for you to choose from as far as this goes. It is a sealed box which is very forgiving. Before you settle in on any 1 sub, what amp is going to be used on it? You do not have room for two in this box. Another option is to go to a 8" and port it. The Digital Designs 1508 is going to work in a small box of this size.

www.ddauudio to check it out. It will more than likely outperform most 10" subs in this small of a box.

Yes its .75 3/4, I have an old concept 600, but will be buying new to fit the sub(s). So if its 3/4 .75 my magic number is 1.4 cu.ft?

I have one of these subs sitting on my counter right now, it gets lots of looks at it. To date it is also the loudest sub that the local Future Shop has ever sold. (they bought one from me and the custom box for it and then resold it to their customer).

I have been looking at the kicker S10L7, they work with my depth, and I can't find a bad review of them.

My only question is, they want .66-1.0 cu.ft for sealed, and 1.25-2.25 cu.ft vented, if i split my box in half it will be .52 cu.ft, and if I polyfill the hell out of each chamber, could i get away with shoving two of these subs in there?

OR alternatively, Can i shove it full of enough polly to make it a ported? And if so how the hell do I port a box like this?
