18 inch subs that don't take a lot of cubic feet to sound good?

Nightshades, aeroports, and all thread bracing will keep the amount of displacement very low and I know them woofers love smaller enclosures. I wouldn't be afraid running Nightshades right at 4 cubes. I love fitting big woofers in small spaces. Maybe I missed it, but what is this going in?

It's all gone!

The trunk of a car. So you would take 2 18 Nightshades over 2 15 BL's right?

Haven't touched a BL so I couldn't tell you how they'd do. But if FI recommends a lot of airspace then I wouldn't stick them in a really small box, your just asking for poor performance. If you want 18"s, then use 18"s. But you have to plan plan plan, its a lot of work sticking big woofers in small trunks. Take a look at my build in my sig if you need some ideas. I had forevrbumpn build my sub specifically to compliment and work well in my limited airspace. And what car? There's all kinds of different cars in the world. Lol

Sundownz, Obsidian Audio, and teh SMD seem to work fine in small boxes (from what I've read)
