8 in Subs pointless compared to larger drivers?

Recommended Posts

I'm having a box built next week for 8 RF P2 8's to fit behind the seat in my truck.. though will probably end up swapping them out for some SA-8v2's. Hopefully the same box will work, but we'll see. It should work out to be about 5 cubes of air space ported around 35 or so.

I was already pretty much set on the Sundowns but the shop building the box doesn't carry them and pushes Rockford, so I figured wth, lets give it a shot and see how it does. Hopefully I'm not too disappointed. I haven't purchased anything RF since the 700s amp was current, so.. it's been a while.

If it fits your application and it sounds great doing it, there is no need to make an 18 fit, just to have it sound like shit.

Fuck the haters.

Yup.... Fukkem till they bleed. Im still amazed what these 8's can do. This one guy was saying 8's where just pointless. And it wouldn't perform like other larger drivers. Unless it was the jlw8 or whatever its called

There's always one in every crowd lol.

Ain't nothing wrong with exploring your options. I'm a DC fan, but I'm still running my X-15" and I'm quite impressed with how it's handling the power.

And I'm pretty sure Ray was up there on the meter as well with his two 8's in his Ranger.
