I'am considering using my Diatone P-610MB's in sealed cabinets and adding a sub woofer. The 610MB's are about 90/dB/W/m efficient and will be 3dB down at 72Hz, rolling off naturally at 12dB/octave. I'd like to drive the sub with the main amplifier for now. Can you recoomend some drivers that might work well for this?

Well, I like Wayne's response, and that would be what I would go with, but the boxes for those drivers would be kinda big, and they are very effiecient too. Sounds like more than you need for your speakers. You could try the Dayton Titanic, it has a very very low fs, and goes very low in frequency in a sealed enclosure. It is not designed for ported boxes, nor will it go very loud. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&User_ID=6639445&St=1461&St2=-54538287&St3=78881025&DS_ID=3&Product_ID=7773&DID=7 It is, however regarded to sound Very good. It only needs a 3cuft enclosure too. If you want an extremely tiny enclosure you could get a http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&User_ID=6639445&St=1461&St2=-54538287&St3=78881025&DS_ID=3&Product_ID=7764&DID=7 Dayton dvc 12" too. It works well in a 1.2cuft sealed box, but the bass in a room wont go much lower than 30hz, and anechoic its around 40hz.
