How you run it? Opinions?
Just thinking to give it a try in a sealed enclosure.
Thank you!

I ran one for years in a 1 cuft ported box on about 1200 watts. very nice sub.
MiniSQ, how did it compare to the GB10 subs you had ?Quote:

I think it had more impact, and similar SQ. But it weighed a ton and thats the only reason i dumped it.Quote:

Oscar, The published specifications for that CSS driver is .42 QTS. Why do you think that’s high? Did you measure it and get something much different?
That was a previous iteration, I can only assume:Quote:

Even at 0.42, that's still high for my "ideal" preference since I am partial to vented boxes. Qts 0.28-0.32 always model better for me in vented/PR applications.
Ahh, good to know. I’m aware of a lower total Q affecting or being better suited for ported configurations yet I have had some great success with using drivers that are supposed to be better suited for sealed boxes when used in a ported box. I too just love ported boxes and am of the opinion that they are better for sound qaulity in an automobile because they produce a shit ton more output with less excursion and therefore less distortion when tuned low and with DSP intervention. I find it very difficult to find very low Q drivers that are designed for auto-sound because I’m guessing manufacturers are trying to appeal to both sealed box and ported box designs so they make a subwoofer that is a jack of all trades instead, and therefore sell more of them.
This is just my opinion based on some experience with a decent amount of subwoofer driver's.
