I have a nib orion nt svc 15" sub
I like sealed boxes and the smaller box size is a plus
I would like to know if anyone has used them. I find a lot of times the spec boxes are not the very they say 2 cub with the speaker in the box or 1.71 with out
I will be installing a x200.4 rear channels to power almost 500 rms it but if I need more juice I have minty x1200.1 both are onyk and 10/10 rated at 1215w
lmk what you have used or seen or heard I know these are old but im told one of the very best sq subs that came out of orion.
I will be used id xs6.5 mids and tweeter the car is a santa fe 2012 suv.
thanks again

sorry for not getting back sooner but my buddy is using a bandpass box almost 3 cubes so that probably wouldn't help, if space is a consideration

I had 2 of the Carbon Fiber 12's in a poly filled 1.5cf sealed each, Are yours the paper or carbon?.. And yes they are great SQ sub's.. They were #2 on my list with the Image Dynamics ID Maxx being the best sounding sub ive owned to date! Im actually thinking of getting a set of the 15's.. Yea they Finally made them lol..

yes~!
they are great woofers. NT woofers meaning which cone though? carbon fiber or the NT2.
if its the NT carbon cone then its a lot like an xmax in some ways. does great on low bass and still hits pretty good.
its a good woofer!
15 would be about 3.75 ported IIRC tuned at about 32hz.
