pstone11 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Posted April 20, 2008 (edited) I have a buddy with a beautiful restored to factory 1978 chevy dually and he wants to upgrade electrical and put some modern touches along with all he's done with it so far.. Looking for some nice 8's to get stuck to probaly a NINe.2. I was checking out the AA 8's, they seem nice, it's harder to find quality eight inch subs than I thought. They need to be nice, simple 8's, no cvr's or bling-bling subs...only looking to do 200rms per. Sealed boxes, you get what I'm saying... Country, metal, oldies, etc... Those sundowns coming out soon?? Edited April 20, 2008 by pstone11 Quote Check out StoneSounds to see my recent builds.Or look at the Flying White Facebook Page!
emperorjj1 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Posted April 20, 2008 mmm re 8s ftw Quote J. JMy CardomainFINISHED COBALT SS/SC DUAL ALTERNATOR PICS theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer

pstone11 Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Posted April 20, 2008 You guys are right on par, but we're not looking for the loudness - this build will just be to add a little...niceness. I want a nice pair of little subs that are tight, SQ, punchy, sealed up 1/2 cube style. Once you see this pickup, you'll understand. It's a beauty.
