Good 8s are expensive and don't hit how low I want and id need a lot to be loud, I'm prob just putting my second 12 in a 3.5 cube box with a cube of port in addition. Unless some buys my amp
I disagree with that,
Not all good 8" are expensive, they only are when you price it on cone area, and not quality,
And as for not hitting low, that's a load of crap mine go down to 25hz no proble (can't go lower factory built in subsonic) an are still loud enought down there that you can fell it in your chest,
The depth that an 8" can go has little to do with the sub but more the enclosers, so if yours never got down its because you tuned it too high
Ive never had 8s but my friend just got 4 dc lvl 2 8s so ill see how they sound.
Probably going with 2 obsidian audio 12s in a box built for dc lvl 4 12s. So that would be perfect
