Dad has two in his truck. He went from two 8" Kickers in a prefab box from Auto Radio to these woofers in a ported box that we both worked on.

I don't remember the exact specs for the box we used but I'm pretty sure it's tuned to 34-35 hZ. I want to say they are in 1.0-1.2 cubic feet, but not for certain. He's powering it with a Kicker ZX750.1.

He loves them and won't get rid of them. He listens to classic Rock some, but mostly old hip-hop/rap.

Ok brother its official i now have the SA-8 in my car and its the new style of SA-8's its in a T-line running at 1 ohm and getting 600 watts...I did a 141.5 at 42 hz in my Impala this morning i did not tune anything i simply swapped subs..The highest i got with my MTX 5508 in there was a 137.9 @ 45 hz...So with all due respect if you dont buy an Sa8 then you are retarded lol..

MY Sa8 weighs more than my buddies SS 12 so if they tells you anything..I have no desire to need a bigger woofer this thing hits as hard as the setup taht i used to have with 2 10's ported

Don't forget that the SA-8 is also one of the few 8s that is re-coneable so if you do get a bit crazy with it, you can get parts :)

You can also take advantage of new soft part upgrades as they become available on re-cones!
