Seeking Max Output from single 10"

[iLL Ridge 10+ year member]

I'm running a single 10" single 4 ohm Eclipse sw8010.

Box is roughly 1.3 cubes. tuned low--- mid to upper 20's i'd guess

Sub mounted inverted.

Giving it about 700 watts rms.

I'd really like to keep the box very small-- fits in the spare tire well.

But---- I'm going to need more output soon.

What I'm running now kills the lows. Need that.

High power - high x-max - dual 2 ohm 10" alternative to what i'm using now??

sundown X 10 or zv4 10 fits the bill

Or even a ZV3.

If the box was a bit bigger with more port area your sub choices open up a bit more.

thx

I'd prob like a X--- but $$$

cheaper options?

Are you staying at 700W?

 

[iLL Ridge 10+ year member]

no. i'd like to wire to 1 ohm

was thinking about a recone--

How small a box are you trying to do?

 

[iLL Ridge 10+ year member]

already stated.. but 1.25 or so

Yeah, I was hoping that you would be willing to eek a 12 in there.

I would personally lean towards a Sundown SA or Incriminator Audio Lethal Injection and that leaves you some overhead as far as power.I'm assuming this is for a daily setup? Just be careful on the gains.

Not enough air for an xfl huh?

I was thinking sa10, li, or vvx or american bass xr.

I'd like to test a compact 4th order blow through ski pass eventually with a single 10

its enough for an XFL. Would be the next best choice money wise.

Sundown Audio yardsale will save ya some coin.

Got my X15 for 210 bucks shipped to my door. Only imagine the x10 will be cheaper.

Yeah I was really zoeroing in on an XFL, but I thought 1.2 cubes would be too small.

Might have to try one eventually.

What about a 4th order in 2.5 cubes through ski pass?

should work. can even go .75 cubes sealed with a lot of poly fill (cone facing sealed portion so you can really pack a fk ton of polyfill) and 1.75 ported. Just build the box and check your sealed resonant frequency first then build the ported accordingly.
