zydrix Posted February 6, 2013 Report Posted February 6, 2013 Well today I ordered 3 atomic apocalypse 8's. Rated at 1500rms. I was wanting to get info that would be good for a box for these subs. I'm debating on doing a 4th order bandpass for these subs, or a normal ported box for these. So if u could guys could, tell me what would be a great box for these, how much space per sub, an can I get some more info on these subs from people who have used an heard these. Thanks guys.

brandonlearL7 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 I didn't really want to build a box for my SA-8's, but none of the prefab boxes I've found are even close to big enough. They're still chilling in the boxes in my room lol.

zydrix Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Posted February 7, 2013 It's looking like a simple ported box is the way to go so far. Seems like these subs aren't very popular My build 98 s10 2.2 3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts.

The subs are great. Its the mngmt that leaves a sour taste in peoples mouths. Its too bad because most of their product is good. But yes, a well built vented enclosure is the way to go.
mrd6 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 ^I would say its that and marketing. I would bet half the people on this site have never heard of Atomic lol or think its old school My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL
