The box that the DD is in right now measures 25.5"L x 10"H x 12", slot ported. If you google 8W7 sub box, you'll see it. It's from MSW.

Make that 10.5" height.

Thanks for the info! I'm not sure how to make a ported box, I've only built sealed boxes. My height max is 10", length and width aren't as limited. It is a notchback 5.0 Mustang, lol!

I am trying to replace my JL 900/5 amp with the Gm-D9601 and a 4 channel pioneer amp. The JL was more clear and the bass hit harder and it is rated at 100/4 and 500/1. I'm gonna try a Massive Audio N4 and and a Massive audio Nx4 amp next. I may even ditch the 2508 and go with two Hippo 8's wired...

I am using a 1.0' net volume box that was originally for my 8w7. Tuned to 35hz.

Thank you very much. I bought a Pioneer Gm-D6901 Amp. It is rated at 800rms at 2 ohm, supposedly. I was not impressed with the amp. It could be that the sub needs to be broken in. How long is the break in period? I was considering a Massive audio amp the N4 rated at 1000rms at 2ohm.

Anyone?

How much power should I feed this thing? I can't find any specs for it. I am installing it in a 1.00' net volume ported box, tuned to 34hz. It was made for an 8w7 but the specs seem about right from what I have read. I ran 500 rms to the w7 and it seemed like it wanted more. Would 1000rms be...

From what I understand they are the same company. They are both located in the same city. The DD amps look just like the Soundqubed amps. Anyway, I bought a DD 2508 brand new off fleBay for $240 shipped to my door. I may also try the soundqubed 8 in the future. Anyone know a good custom box builder?

I plan on buying one of these subs. Can anyone tell me if the Digital Design 2508 sub is that much better than the Soundqubed model? Is it worth it to buy at double the price? I know they are the same company, and the subs look similar. I am looking for the most spl possible from an 8" sub in a...

I may just keep the W7 for now. I live in central Wisconsin, surrounded by hicks. They would rather buy deer rifles and loud exhausts for their rusty Chevy trucks than a nice W7! I might try a bigger amp. I have been using a 900/5 JL. I need to stick with 8's because of height restrictions. I...

I have a pair of 10W3V1's in a sealed Prowedge JL box, perfect condition. I want more output. I was considering installing them in a down-firing sealed box I made (Same volume), buying a ported box, or buying one Kicker 12" 2ohm CVR sub in a ported factory enclosure. What would give me the most...

I am considering selling my single JL 8W7 and buying two Soundqubed 8" subs. Does anybody have any experience with this company? I have read that they are the same company or similar to Digital Designs. Is this true?

I am trying to install a JL Amp into my wife's XC90 Volvo along with a JL 10W1v2. I spliced into the speaker wires exiting the amp going out to the speakers. The LOC is a PAC model PDLC21. The sub pops and distorts too easily. I tried playing with gain on the amp and the LOC. Any ideas...

After experimenting with numerous subwoofers to replace the original infinite baffle subs I think I may have a solution. I am using a JL 900/5 amp with 500 rms going to the subs.The Stealthbox in question is for an Audi A4/S4 B5 body. It features 2 8" subs and it bolts to the rear speaker deck...
