Dafaseles Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 How much do you want to spend? How many do you want to run? How much airspace do you have to give up? Do you have a set amount of power you're looking at to give them? 1 Quote 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out!

Well i want to run 4 in a under seat box and perferably at or over 600 rms each, not sure about the airspace but the model number for the box is gmec998.4v $350 or lower per sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 (edited) Sundown X 8" is among the best if you want performance. it's about $300. Edited January 21 by Joe X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael20041 Posted January 21 Author Report Share Posted January 21 I was thinking about the sundown x8, dc audio 8, or the skar evl 8 i want around 32 hz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafaseles Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 (edited) Don't forget about the Gately Audio Alpha 8. That thing looks beefy! But honestly, I don't think you could go wrong with any of those selections. I don't ferment hope much it is, but I've only heard good things about the SSA F8L sub as well. If I was to use 8's, those would be what I would use. Just my opinion though 18 minutes ago, Michael20041 said: I was thinking about the sundown x8, dc audio 8, or the skar evl 8 i want around 32 hz Edited January 21 by Dafaseles Quote 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here.

For the best performance you need to use a custom enclosure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking on getting that enclosure and putting a round port in it and tune the box to about 32 hz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
