Waldo129 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Well I just picked up 2 blown Sa-8's from a buddy of mine for 20 bucks. While im waiting on the recones I figured I would start on my box. I need some help and a few suggestions. I'm thinking either just a simple slot port or one with a aero port. Anyone have any experience with Sa-8's and the the best enclosure for them? Im used to face pounding 18's and what not, so 8's are a whole different ball park lol.

Cadillac John Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Sounds like you got a deal! I have a few friends who use the DD-8's and it has always been a 5" aero sitting between the subs and flush with the box. Things got down, and pretty low. Id stay between 1.00 to 1.50 cubes and try both boxes. Youll be able to make a few with a single sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy22 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I think the 8s would like either a slot port or aero. Heres a vid of some 8s you might like(and yes i know there are 12 compared to your 2 but i figure youll like it) 99 Pontiac Grand am Single 15 Nightshade v2 2 1200d's Sundown Audio 8 MK Powered Batt's DC 200 Amp Alt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmrcs Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 My last SA-8 was 1.01 cubes at 30 hz with a slot port and it did a 132 @ 45hz and a 131 @ 31hz off ~900 rms E34 540iT/6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotciv244life Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 single slot port..tuned to about 35hz or 38hz it will sound awsome.. they need 0.5 to 0.75 per sub ported..or you cantry sealed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

412 CVX Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 box is waaaay too big lol. shoot for about a cube and a quarter net. you should also try doing a 6th order for the pair of 8's HMU if you need help with that. Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.
