WTK 8"sub

[mumra]

hey tuners wtk what kind of 8" sub will be suitable to put in a sealed fiberglass enclosure in a van (space is an issue not willing to sacrifice the back seat). Its a B2500. Not looking to put alot of power behind it, lust looking for a good listening experience Inside the vehicle.
Heard a kicker 8" d square one sounded good!

[ruffneck_12]

Infinity
Sundown

[mumra]

any other suggestions

[mumra]

infinity looks good has an free air resonnance of 28 with 200rms power, culdnt find specs on the sundown 8" anybody ever hear these subs perform?

[shotta4life]

go with the JL audio 8" uses a small box works well only thing is price kinda high

[Kaizen Autosound]

If you are looking for something that sounds goods that's not expensive then you may want to consider the REX 8" or the Image Dynamics ID 8".

[noyztoyz]

the kicker 8 will outdo all the others
try and get that

[Rodneys Audio]

If u like i have the American Bass new XD 8 very nice sub u could also look into that at a very good price

[southside connections]

the american bass is a great sub for the price i must admit

there are many options-

dd 1508
mtx 5500/4500
image dynamics id
rf p2/p3
kicker l7 / l5

The T3 Audio T200 8" is not a bad option as well.

A few tuners used them and were impressed!

Nice smooth response...

These were sold out in less than a week though..

[mumra]

alot of options here boi!

You said you're willing to sacrifice the back seat, why not try a larger sub which will generally perform better in the sealed enclosure that you want?

[mumra]

[- Rovin's car audio -]

true

simplest thing is a pair of comps in d front doors & a single sub all powered off a 4 channel amp which cud be used back later in ur new set ...

there are many subs u can use in this case but u don't necessarily need to put it in a fiberglass enclosure ............ there are clarion 10"s as well as treo engineering 10"s and 8"s ................
it all depends on ur space pm for more info

[mumra]

i heard some flat subs didnt realy like how they sounded. i dont think i'll put the sub in the center console anymore i think im gonna stick wit it in a triangular box behind the seat. i dont realy want to use a flat sub, can i get a better quality with an 8" or two? has anyone ever fit a 10" behind that seat? i have 500rms @ 4ohms to put on a sub.

[Ted_v2]

what about putting the subs under the front seats?

[SR]

flat sub and enclosure for a pickup will be on demo at the sq event on the 22nd
single 10"

vehicle was not built for sq but has previously won its class in competition

[mumra]

what is the location of this event?

[mumra]

what about putting the subs under the front seats?

good question, but most likely dat go hav tuh be flat subs again cause of limited space....

[zaheer927]

there are different subs they don't necessarily have to be flat subs and depending on ur space u can use the clarion 10''

[Firewall]

any sub that has a mounting depth of less than 4.75" should work fine in a wedge box. the only problem is that most of them are 8" so you have to deal in multiples. either 2 ported or 4 sealed.

and the max airspace that you can squeeze out is in the ballpark of 1.5 cubic to retain any sort of folding (or if you don't care about the folding, then you can get approx 1.8 cubic), so you can look for something along those lines.

hope that helped.

put 2 flat soundstream 12" under the seats and mount ur amp in the back i tink steaves has the soundstream flats just my 2 c
