Oh man not again, have u read through the 100 other "what sub should I choose threads" before posting this one??

With that being said.. I wouldn't run the BTL, 4xl, or HCCA off that power in that sized enclosure. For a single 15 that is quite small and will decrease the efficiency of those woofers, which in the first place do better off more power than that anyways.

I'd lean towards the HDC3 or a LVL4 w/ lvl5 coils in that sized enclosure. If it was my choice I'd go with an AB HD w/ that power and sized box.

hes gonna be using a t2000 why wouldnt he use a BTL or lvl 4 XL? it is the RMS of the BTL and the XL could take it, I dont know how well a lvl 4 with 5 coils could take it...

Granted that box is on the small side for a 15

*edit

ever think of running sealed? could you squeeze that box alittle bigger? with 4 cubes you could run 2 15s sealed... i do..

2 dc lvl 4 12's on that amp would do nicely, its rec 2 cubes per sub, so if you can make a box thats 4 cubes after displacement you have a perfect fit
