ssd vs lvl 3 in 2.5 cube box

[pk222]

Hey guys I'm starting a new system and need to choose a sub. The biggest box I can fit in my car is aprox. 2.5 cubes.

I'm looking into a dc lvl 3 or an fi ssd 12. If anyone has a better idea between those or anything else in that price range throw it out there. I haven't gotten a new amp yet so I'll let whatever sub I get decide that. But Like I said my limitations are around 2.5 cubes and I'm thinking of porting around 35 hz. I mostly listen to rap but I want something that has some quality all around and can still get decently loud.

Its 97 mustang vert so if anyone has any suggestions for a box configuration itd be appreciated as well. I'm thinging sub and port firing into the cab as much as will work through the convertable boot.

thanks pk

Flip a coin on which one you want heads for one and tails for the other, there is no bad choice.

Box position. Don't know. Only know of one other person with a convertible running FI I think. Don't know how it's positions though but is loud with BTLs. But if 2.5 is gross volume max net will be around 1.75-2cubes after port and sub displacement. Other then that. Pick which one you want. Sundown SA12 is also a option. Along with every other brand you see here will do you good if the box is good.

I didn't even have sundown as an option. I thought the nightshade was their only model. So I'll probably pick between those 3.

With any of those in around 2.5 cubes with a flared aeroport it should be decently loud right? My last system was 2 12 in ssa d cons off a boss audio 3500d in a sealed box in a camaro. sound quality was great but I wanted more output. Would my idea fit the bill or will I have to shoot higher?

I still have the d cons that I'll throw in until I can sell them. I just need a box and wire it up. Riding with no beat is killing me haha
