MA 8 or VVX 8?

[AAKSOKOLD 13]

MA-8 looks nice!

sounds good to me and after all it will only be an 8 it may be shocking....

Ha ha.

I'm only running a single DD1512 D4 right now and as much as I love bass I'll never be a ground pounder. However, I like to experiment but I've never had the oppurtunity to truly play around with car audio beyond basic installations. Who know's what will come of this foray.

I like the stitching best, great touch IMO.

 Well the vvx 8 has a xmax of 13mm and weighs about 17 lbs and the ma 8 has a xmax of 12.5 mm and weighs about the same I'm not sure. But the vvx 8 does appear to have a bigger magnet I have the vvx 8 ported at 38hz it sounds great. I am a sound enthusiasts and am currently waiting for the ma 8 to show. But all in all the both have 2" voice coils witch limits them with there massive magnets.

They are the same price... the vvx has a triple stack magnet and a much lower FS. The MA has a double stack and a pretty high FS. 

 

If mounting depth isn't a concern, I would probably go with the vvx 

 

I have run the VD 8 in a stock jeep box sealed on a pbr300, I was very impressed with it for being so cheap and in a crappy plastic box.
