I've never built a car sub before but I'm interested in giving it a try, and I thought I'd float this in the new car section here at HTF.
I'd like to put a small sealed trunk subwoofer for my Accord and I'm looking for a decent quality driver, say, around $100 but I'd be willing to go less. I don't need 1.21 gigawatts of power handling, but I would like nice clean extension up to a reasonable volume level. I'm thinking I can do better and with a single high quality driver than 2 junk ones. I'd also like the box not to take my entire trunk, maybe a foot cubed or so. I'm thinking a 10" would be a better match for my small car than a 12, and cheaper too.
So am I out of my mind, or is all of the above possible? Do I need to look into the $125-150 range (Say the Dayton DSQ 10 or the Image Dynamics IDQ10)? How's the Dayton Quatro line? Will cabin gain really cover the huge sloping dropoff in their plots?
Thanks for any advice you can give a newb
