Subwoofer opinion

Thanks David. Makes sense, and is the info I was looking for.

I'll look at something other than their slim line.

You dont have a free woofer in your boat. What you have is a great woofer that is poorly executed. 1) the Kicker KM10 is not a true infinite-baffle woofer and 2) the moomba facade cannot support an IB installation as its open at the top as opposed to a solid wall. Place it in a small sealed enclosure between .8 and 1.0 ft3, properly tune the amp and you will have a whole new opinion of it.

or add a 2nd 4 ohm woofer in a 1.8 ft3 sealed and greatly increase the bass output.

I think I'm going to try this option first. I just ordered a box for the Kicker. Way cheaper than a whole new loaded sub. I'll report back with how it sounds.

Mike gives great advice. I built a box to these specs and put in (2) KM10's. I have to say it really brought my system to life and gave a very musical bottom end. Tuned properly it is pleasant whether being played softly or rocking the boat.
