Chris Hammer Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 WIll i'm sick of losing back seats for my 12. Was thinking about going 2 15's and taking rear seats out and going for it....but I dont think its the plan anymore. I am going to sell my whole sub stage setup...SA-12 BRZ1200 and my little Kinetik. and go with something actually smaller lol. I'm thinking a 1000w rms amp witha smaller footprint and 2 8's in a sealed enclosure between rear and front center seats. I am probably going with Sundown E8v2's but I stumbled upon the American Bass XD8 for a similar price. Power handling is a little higher with the AB XD. any experience with the 2? any suggestions or opinions. Not a vs thread but I want opinions...even if its your cousins bf who has one. I might go with the AB just to change it up unless it would be lower in terms of performance compared to the e8.

AB18VFL Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 they're good, but nothing even comparable sa-8 v1 or v2. My friend had 4 of the xd8 on 2k, did a 147 something. I think i would rather get the alpine type-r 8 though, has bigger coils. Quote SUBSCRIBE AT YOUTUBE! 18abVFL < CLICK!! 2005 Subaru Impreza My build log.

Chris Hammer Posted June 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Yea I saw that type r 8...I didnt realize alpine made an 8 lol. SA8v2s are straight beasts but I'm looking for a lower power dual 8 setup thats going into about 1ft sealed. The Sundown E8v2 was first choice just from my experience with sundown. But now coming across the type r and RF p2 8's they are all priced similarly with e8v2 and XD8. Makes decisions hard lol. Hmmm. Thanks for input guys...the link helped alot.
