The reason I was asking is I have one but don't think it could take the abuse. 

I run "home theater" subs in my car. If the t/s parameters permit for the alignment is what matters.

Is this for your doors or actual sub duty?

Like stated above if it fits the alignment then why not.

I'm using a pair of the 8" model IB in the rear deck of the Olds.  Last time I crawled in the trunk to look at them everything seemed just fine.  Do pretty damn decent for their modest price as well.

He wants to use this in a 1.25 cubic foot ported box. I told him that is way to small.

depends on the sub. how do you know it too small?

Look at my previous post  http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-sd270a-88-10-dvc-subwoofer--295-486

If it were an HO 10 you could shrink it, never used that one. Car, home - doesn't matter, parameters do. I RARELY buy car stuff.

Have you ran the speaker numbers through WINisd to to how that alignment plots out? If you need someone to do it for you just ask.

No I don't have that program on my computer and would need help please.

I run pro audio in my doors.

So have I and have had good luck with them.

That driver will roll off quick at 50hz in the 1.25cu enclosure. Calls for 5cu to not drop off until 30hz.

Are you using ported boxes?

yes

yes

What would you consider a good roll off hz?

If you want anything that even remotely sounds good I would shot for atleast 40, 30 would be prefered.

So I would need the bigger box which I don't have room for.

 

Thanks for the help!

What would be the roll off if I used a 10" dcon?
