oldsoundguy Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I wish sub woofer companies would make wider mounting for the subs. Seems like you only get like 1/4" of wood to screw into. To me that's just too close to the edge.

SnowDrifter Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Haha thanks man Yeah the 8k is about right power wise. Pretty much right on the border between too much power and needing to worry about them thermally and not having enough power to move them mechanically ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
