| Why does no one use 8" subwoofers to compete in SPL. For example instead of using 2 12" subwoofers use 4 10" subwoofers or 8 8" subwoofers. | |

| Are 8 inch subwoofers too tight for spl or would they get a higher number on the meter | |

| someone here used 8 or 10 8's i believe cant remember who it was now dont remember what kind of numbers they did. i think 8's would work fine, just build the right box for them. | |

| i did 8 8"s in my rex. i had wqay too much power for them but still did a 148 with subs going out on me. i have thought about get some better 8's but for right now i am going to stick with my 12's. here is the pic. they were ma audio xe 8's and i had them hooked up to a ma audio hk802sx but i don't remember how i had them wired, but they were dual 4 ohm coils. | |

| I've always thought about doing like. 16 8"s or something like that.
Jsut never really heard 8"s get loud. My friend has 4 behind the back seat of his truck, drops low, just not to loud. | |

| I was thinking of using 16 L5 8's in my jeep but I am not sure if it will do a good number on the meter. I don't want to gamble on these if it won't do good. So if you get it metered, I would like to know what kind of number you get (in the explore). | |

| Well I let Skip01 use my L7 8s to try them out on his 40.1 and see how he likes them............. he told me it hits highs and lows very good and are louder then his 2 Type R 12s hopefully he can post more about them on here to give you a idea on how they are. | |
