lol you plan on running a woofer on a smaller box size than is recommended? the port itself will take up 1.5cuft or so. i know some people will be like "that will allow him to run more power"

It's recommended at 4-7cuft with the power he is running I wouldn't go any higher that 5cuft per... They are one of the few high powered 18s on the market that can excel in a 4-5cuft box.

f the bs crossfire xs spl

Ignorant statment. You know nothing about that sub apparently. Nothing like the smd...it has a 3inch coil and is made purely for spl. Either the lvl 5 or smd would stomp that sub in a daily app.

Holy Shit

Kicker WarHorse+ 2 SMD 18's = Destruction :shrug::ban2:

Some people could care less about who the genius is that is making the product... They just want to get it cheap and say "derrrr, look at teh pretty lights in muh dash!"

Because audio is a lifestyle not a hobby.

Things that I am allergic too....

We'll be running 5kw per driver tuned @ 30Hz in 6.5cubes. Not worried mechinically one bit. Just concerned about the destruction it'll do to the car itself.

Port area wise, 65-8O sq.in per sub.

As much as i hate to give shit, ima do it. Technically the SMD is a SQ design. With both mags it is designed to never have the coil away from the strongest magnetic field. Everyone uses is in spl because one, its pretty beast in the field, and two because its Steve Meades sub.

i resolve to be a nicer moderator.
