This enclosure holds 1.674 cu ft net per driver. In it the Morel Ultimo Ti SC122 runs a system Qtc of 0.81–0.97 with half power at 35.2–39.8 Hz, and the cone reaches its 9.5 mm travel limit at 107 W per driver, below the driver’s 600 W thermal rating, so travel is what stops you here, not heat. Run a subsonic filter at 25 Hz and that becomes 119 W per driver — +11 W, or 11 percent more power for the same 9.5 mm of travel.

00Sizing the amplifier

Every wattage on this panel is per driver. This cabinet holds three, so the amplifier feeds all three at once.

Per driver 80–110 W RMS  ×  3 drivers  =  full set 240–330 W RMS
Look for a mono amplifier rated 240–330 W RMS at the load your coil version wires to. Travel sets the top here, not heat: past 119 W per driver the cone runs beyond Xmax even with the subsonic set, under the driver’s 600 W thermal rating. The top of the range needs the 25 Hz subsonic filter set; without it, keep each driver under 107 W, where the cone reaches Xmax unfiltered. Below the bottom of the range it will play, just with less headroom; above the top you are buying power the drivers cannot use.

01Is it a sealed driver?

Efficiency bandwidth product places the motor before anything else is decided.

EBP = Fs ÷ Qes = 41.3–50.0
SEALED 0–50 TRANSITION 50–100 PORTED 100–150 0 50 100 150 Single 2 Ohm 41.3 Single 4 Ohm 50.0
Single 2 Ohm · EBP 41.3Single 4 Ohm · EBP 50.0
The Ultimo Ti SC122 straddles the boundary at 41.3–50.0 depending on coil — part sealed-band, part transition. Either way it takes a sealed load happily; the coil you run shifts the alignment more than it shifts this verdict.

02What the box does to it

1.674 cu ft against a 88.8 L Vas.

α = Vas ÷ Vb = 1.87  ·  Fc = Fs√(α+1) = 44–45 Hz  ·  Qtc = 0.81–0.97
20 30 50 70 100 150 200 +6 +0 -6 -12 -18 -24 FREQUENCY · Hz LEVEL · dB −3 dB
Single 2 Ohm · Qtc 0.97, Fc 44 Hz, F3 35.2 HzSingle 4 Ohm · Qtc 0.81, Fc 45 Hz, F3 39.8 Hz
The box lifts resonance from 26.0 Hz free-air to 44–45 Hz and half power lands at 35.2–39.8 Hz, anechoic, before any cabin gain. Figures are Morel’s published parameters; Qes and Qms reproduce the printed Qts. This cabinet holds three drivers in three separate sealed chambers of 1.674 cubic feet each, the volume plotted here.

03The watts that reach Xmax (in this enclosure)

Travel scales with the square root of power, so there is one wattage that puts the cone exactly on 9.5 mm — and a bigger one once a subsonic filter stops it wasting travel below the passband.

PXmax = 107–108 W per driver unfiltered  →  119–132 W with a 25 Hz subsonic
20 30 50 70 100 150 200 0 4 8 12 FREQUENCY · Hz CONE TRAVEL · mm PAST LINEAR TRAVEL · Xmax 9.5 mm 107 W reaches Xmax here
Single 2 Ohm · 107 W, no filterSingle 4 Ohm · 108 W, no filterSingle 2 Ohm · 119 W with subsonic at 25 Hz, 24 dB/octSingle 4 Ohm · 132 W with subsonic at 25 Hz, 24 dB/octXmax 9.5 mm one-way
Every trace touches the limit and no further, because each is drawn at the exact power that puts that coil on 9.5 mm. Unfiltered that is 107 W per driver, reached first at 30 Hz. It sits under the 600 W the driver can take thermally, so the enclosure sets the ceiling, not the voice coil. The dashed traces are the same driver behind a subsonic filter at 25 Hz, 24 dB/oct: stopping the cone wasting travel below the passband lets it take 119 W per driver before hitting the same 9.5 mm. That is 11 percent more amplifier for the price of one filter setting.

From the shop floor

Installer's take

Start with the size. 1.674 cubic feet per driver puts the Ultimo Ti SC122 / SC124 at Qtc 0.966, resonance 44.1 Hz, half power 35.2 Hz anechoic. That is Morel's number, not ours: the cabinet is built to the maker's recommended sealed size. Butterworth on these figures wants 5.82, which on this platform means deeper than the 23 in platform allows. It is a firm lift near resonance, 1.1 dB above flat. One box serves every coil version: the Single 2 Ohm at Qtc 0.966, the Single 4 Ohm at Qtc 0.807.

Measure the base depth, not the top. This cabinet is 20.86 in deep where it meets the floor, 14.67 at the top, 44 wide and 17 tall. In an SUV the 44 has to clear between the rear wheel wells at floor height, the base depth is measured from the seat back with the seat upright and latched, and the 17 has to clear the cargo cover.

All three terminal cups are on the rear panel, and the rear panel is the face that goes against the seat back. Wire all three before the box goes in, with enough slack to slide it into place; once the raked face is against the seat you cannot reach them.

Impedance. Ultimo Ti SC122: wire for 6 ohms (the three in series), the load most monoblocks are built to deliver full power into; 0.67 ohms is the other clean option (the three in parallel). Ultimo Ti SC124: wire for 12 ohms (the three in series), the load most monoblocks are built to deliver full power into; 1.33 ohms is the other clean option (the three in parallel). Work the load out before you buy the amplifier, not after.

Power. Size the amplifier for the set, not one driver: 80 to 110 W RMS per driver is 240 to 330 W RMS across all 3. On this driver travel sets the top, not heat: Xmax arrives at 119 W per driver with a 25 Hz subsonic, under the 600 W rating. Set the 25 Hz subsonic to use the top of that range; without it keep each driver under 107 W.

Morel's Qes and Qms reproduce the printed Qts within 3 percent, so the alignment rests on a self-consistent set.

Polyfill is in as a wall lining in every chamber. Do not add more: it makes the box act larger and walks Qtc off 0.97.

Questions

Does this fit the Morel Ultimo Ti SC122 / SC124, and its coil versions?

Yes. Each opening is cut to 10.350 in for the 12 in frame, and the 5.96 in deep motor clears the raked rear panel with 8.41 in to spare. Both coil versions share the frame, cutout and mounting depth; the alignment table lists each.

Run three matched drivers, same model and same coil, so every chamber sees the alignment on this page.

Why 1.674 cubic feet per driver, and what alignment does it target?

On Morel's published Fs 26.0 Hz, Qts 0.570 and Vas 88.8 liters, 1.674 cubic feet per driver gives Qtc 0.966, system resonance 44.1 Hz and half power 35.2 Hz.

The cabinet is sized to the maker's recommended sealed size, 1.67 cubic feet per driver, to keep it realistic for a cargo floor. Maximally flat would need 5.82 cubic feet per driver; this size trades a little low end for a compact box and a firm lift near resonance, 1.1 dB above flat.

What amplifier power should I run, and how should I wire it?

Morel rates the Ultimo Ti SC122 / SC124 at 600 watts RMS per driver. Recommended amplifier: 80 to 110 W RMS per driver, 240 to 330 W RMS for the full set of 3. Travel, not heat, sets the top: the cone reaches Xmax at 119 W per driver with a 25 Hz subsonic set, under the 600 W rating. The top of that range needs the 25 Hz subsonic; without it keep each driver under 107 W.

Each Ultimo Ti SC122 has a single 2 ohm voice coil. The three in parallel present 0.67 ohms; in series, 6 ohms. Check the result against your amplifier's minimum stable impedance before powering up. Each Ultimo Ti SC124 has a single 4 ohm voice coil. The three in parallel present 1.33 ohms; in series, 12 ohms. Check the result against your amplifier's minimum stable impedance before powering up.

Will it fit my SUV?

It is 44 inches wide, 17 tall and 20.86 deep at the base, tapering to 14.67 at the top. Measure between the rear wheel wells, the floor depth with the seat upright, and the height under your cargo cover.

The raked face goes against the seat back and the woofers fire toward the liftgate.

Why are all three terminal cups on the back?

Each driver has its own sealed chamber, and the center chamber has no side wall to take a cup. Putting all three on the rear panel gives a matching set, one cup per chamber.

Wire them at the amplifier end; there is no cross-chamber wiring inside the cabinet.

What is the expected low-frequency extension?

Anechoic F3 is 35.2 Hz per driver with system resonance at 44.1 Hz.

Those figures exclude cabin gain. An SUV cabin adds real output below about 50 Hz, so in-vehicle response runs deeper than the numbers above.

Do I need to add polyfill or damping?

No. Polyfill is already installed as a light wall lining in every chamber, and the quantity is chosen so it does not change the acoustic volume.

Do not add more. Packing a sealed box makes it behave as though it were larger, which moves the alignment away from 1.674 cubic feet per driver.

Are the drivers included?

No. This is an enclosure only. You receive the cabinet finished in plush black carpet with the gloss black acrylic baffle insert, three pre-wired terminal cups on the rear panel, the polyfill lining in place, threaded inserts and stainless machine screws.

Bring three matched Morel Ultimo Ti SC122 / SC124 drivers. The cabinet is cut direct fit to them, not a general purpose 12 inch box.
