So I downloaded a sub calculator and put in some T/S numbers for some 6.5" sub drivers and got really confusing results. To me, this sounds like a job for a 4th order bandpass. I don't need to boom, I just want to fill in the 40-120hz range.

Like, there is no little sidebar that says "do not hook up two subs because explosion." For the purposes of this discussion, let's assume we are getting a total of 40wrms and I'm allowed to run one sub at 4ohms. The owner's manual is not very helpful, but it appears that you can only hook up one sub to one of the rear speaker outputs, and it doesn't say if bridging is possible, nor does it say why it only says one sub. The rear channel allows itself to be configured as a low-pass allowing you to hook directly to a sub. It's a Sony marine unit that puts out a (claimed) 40wrms x 4, and the performance I'm getting from the 6.5" suggest that is pretty accurate. Head unit is designed as a receiver with a pretty stout amp. The hard bags on the flank seem like a great place to tuck a small-ish enclosure. The fairing has two 6.5" Polk dB coax and they sound wonderful, but they really are lackluster below about 120hz. I want to use a modest power level and an efficient smaller driver in an enclosure that makes the most of it.

The driver manufacturer says "0.9-1.25 cu ft sealed" so I build a 1.25 cu ft box and install a massive driver and give it 1.21 Jiggawats.

I have done a lot of sub enclosures in my life, but they have all been sealed with the exception of one ported box. which I like, but the learning curve is killing me. I asked this on an audio forum and got super technical responses.
