  1. The X-8 will like the same boxes as the SA-8 v.2 -- we did test up to 1 cube but you will have to watch mechanics a bit on the full 750 RMS (clamped anyway).

    Can it handle a zx1500? lol
    im pushing my 8v2 on zx750 (932rms birthed) in a tline and it gets warm to the touch but blows cool air for the past couple months. Definitely excited for this! can you say UPGRADE?! Haha
  2. I got one of 520 watts rms and takes it no problem. Pretty loud for one, but my loud and you're loud are 2 different things, I'm more of SQ than SPL

    How would you rate yours at 520w on sq and spl? Ive got a Sa-8v2 with a hifonics hfi1000d (pushin 650w rms) and it sounds good but, it is my first set up and ive never had anything else to compare it to (and its in a 0.64ft3 box slot ported @35hz).

    If i was you i would buy two E-8v3's for about 80/ piece, run atleast 1000w combined, and in a ported box (good value for all of that). Heck i paid 145 for one v2 and 110 for the amp and I think it goes deep. Plus the fact that it blows my friends minds when i tell them i only have an 8. :)

    The only thing i dont know is that the resonant frequency of the e8v3 is 51.9hz and xmax is only 12mm which reminds me of a sealed box rock sub. The resonant frequency of the v2 is 34.6hz and xmax is at 16.5.

    Also if you havent already bought an amp Hifonics makes a great series of high powered amps called the "Brutus" line at 1200+

    Thanks, the fs being so high was the main reason that I questioned how they sounded at lower frequencies. When I model things up in winisd, it usually seems that the higher the fs, the worse the lower response ends up. But I am still trying to figure alot of this stuff out and am well aware that I don't understand the relationship of all the t/s parameters and how they affect performance. If I go with the e-8v3's I may buy the hifonics amp, but if for some reason I end up with the sa series I would probably get teh aq amp.

    Hifonics makes up to a 4200w amp which sounds like enough for any SA series sub.
