Default best setup using a 12" sub?

I have a polk momo 12" subwoofer- left over from my celica hatch- and its brand new so I dont want to get rid of it.
I wanted to know what box and which amount of watts I should go with to make it sound the cleanest.
I was told a sealed enclosure (downward facing under the soft top) with 500-600 watts RMS would be perfect.
What are your opinions?

I would use the tool well if you can. Others will chime in. Give them some time.

Are these the right specs for your sub or do you have the one with the red painted center section?

thats the sub.
I do know that polk makes an enclosure for that sub but I cant dish out another $175 for it, so I will make my own sealed enclosure.

I believe Lucid make a 12" fiberglass enclosure for the tool well, but you'll need to contact them and see if the 6-9/16" depth of those speakers will fit.

here's mine - custom made by a local cabnit maker for about $100.00

but check with PAS2KNut as i think he may be able to sell you one

I have a JL500/1 feeding my sub now and it sounds pretty good BUT i may switch to a ported box for more bass
