i just bought a Eclipse Titanium 10" in a freaking huge box that takes up my entire trunk. If I put a pretty powerful speaker like that into a stealth box is it not gona hit as hard? Sorry for the elementary question.

It will sound fine - probably better...probably not as "boomy" as it is now, but more precise. Eclipse subs work well in the stealth boxes because their sealed box requirements are very minimal.

Is your current box ported? If not, it seems like it is way too large for a single sub..

Yes it is ported. Its a really nice box, it has a rectangle port on the top that goes down and under the speaker and it has a really nice coating.

It will sound good except for the lower frequencies. The ported box you had the sub in before would hit the lower frequencies better than a stealth box would. That's the only real weakness of a stealth enclosure...limited airspace. .6 cu.ft. in most cases. It will still sound good though. The rectangle port or "slot port" enclosures are great for SPL. They help a sub get real loud. Although, I just read the description of this sub and it says that it works well in "small sealed-box enclosure". Everything I just searched for said...sealed enclosure for the SW9102. Assuming thats your sub.

Ported enclosures, if done right, aren't just great for SPL

I'd think a stealth box is a bit too small for an eclipse Ti, but who knows. I can't find any box specs for it.

What does SPL stand for?

SPL = Sound Pressure Level = how loud your **** hits, measured in decibels (dB)

need to know more information.
1. what is the dimensions or cuft of the box its in
2. what series is the titanium subwoofer - they make them in sw8000, sw7000 sw6000, and sw4000
3. is the box made by eclipse?
4. is the sub single or dual voice coil (if dual what ohms configuration)?
5. what kind/size amp do you have powering the sub


you can always take away airspace temporarily by adding wood blocks inside the box. That will give you a good idea of what it will sound like in less airspace.

It looks to me like those subs are very power hungry and they also require quite a bit of airspace but without knowing more details its difficult to say either way.

I agree, ported enclosures aren't just for SPL, I've heard some real tight sounding ported enclosures, but generally they do get louder than a sealed enclosure.
When I saw that sub, it looked to be about the same size as a W6. They do ok in stealth enclosures but would benefit from a little more cu.ft. Wish I could find more specs...even Eclipses web sight doesn't give exact enclosure dimensions.

This is the one I purchased. https://ls1tech.com/forums/florida-members/656000-eclipse-titanium-10-vt-box.html

I still havent gotten an amp, im tight on money and im looking for a deal.

Don't cheap out on the amp! That sub looks like it needs alot of power. Here's the specs I found:
Polyether Surround
Titanium Cone
Dual Mirror-Image Spiders
Aluminum Voice Coil Former
"Bottomless" Design
Aero-Vented Pole Piece
Cast Aluminum Frame
Triple-Stacked Magnet
Small Sealed-Box Enclosure
Continuous Power Handling: 750W
Music Power Handling: 1,500W
Dual Voice Coil
I still don't see that sub in a "small sealed-box enclosure" but that's what the manufacturer states. Nice sub though!!! Put it in a stealth and see what it does...not like you won't be able to sell the sub or the stealth box if it's not what you wanted. Stealth boxes are readily bought and sold on here!!!
