SA8v.2 (2) or E8v.2 (4) on 1200w which would perform better?


Recommended Posts

I have been mulling over a switch to the SA8v.2 or E8v.2 subs...considering 2 SA8v.2 or 4 E8v.2 would both cost roughly the same and would be powered by a DC 1.2k at 1ohm...I have plenty of space for the box as my current setup is 5cubes just trying to figure out if the 2 SA8v.2's with 600watts each would out perform 4 E8v.2's with 300watts each?

any help with recommendation between either setup would be great

thanks

If you want better Sound quality and low end extention, I'd go with the SA8. If you want louder, with a relatively high F3, I'd go with the E8.

*New vehicle and system coming soon.*

...just wondering because I have not had a chance to hear any setups running the E8s...

My friend has 2 E8 V2's in a horrible box (our first self built box with a terrible design we came up with) The box is sealed under his seat in his F150 and the box is just awful but the subs still get down, I like them. If it was me, I'd go for the SA8's though, those things are beasts.
