I would wait then until I had enough money to buy some better quality subs. I know the feeling of wanting to get going so you can have some nice bass, but it's going to pay off more in the long run if you wait it out and get a higher quality sub. Also the fact that you are doing an 8" woofer is another reason that quality is so important. With a smaller driver like that your going to need all you can get from it and using a lesser sub is going to compromise the output by quite a bit over one that is built more specifically for your type of application. I'm assuming that you want to get loud since you are deciding on going with more cone area and is why I'm suggesting more of a spl type solution for you. A cvr is nothing more than an oversized midbass woofer. It uses a small motor and has poor throw. You'd be better off running the Tang Band neo 8's from parts express honestly.

Just be patient and wait until you can get something to do it right the first time around or you'll be left wanting more, which you probably will no matter what anyway. But at least you won't be stuck trying to sell stuff that has a poor resale value rather than something that will sell easily and hold it's value well.
