Face it folks. Some people are willfully stupid with no hope of redemption.

Your unintelligible cryptic responses indicate a bipolar issue... perhaps severe ADHD. If you cannot clearly elaborate your thoughts (because you assume everyone has your precise experiences and thought processes ~assuming we can read your mind~) then don't offer "personal" advice to anyone... ever.

I didn't read all the posts in this thread... but I'll state this... Finding the right balance is a bee-awtch!! I worked 80-120 hour weeks for years and still lost my family. Why? Because I was desperately trying to give them the STUFF they needed (wanted)... and I FAILED to give of myself...

A couple of good sealed 8's in a vehicle is plenty for me... but I'm trying to keep what hearing I have left.

Better oversized enclosure than undersized, IMO. Not more or less bass... just different bass. You need to tune the woofer with the box to best fit the environment they'll be used in and what best suits your personal taste... and EQ if necessary. No ten inch drivers will sound decent up to 4KHz...

Looks like about .22 ft3 for each driver provides a Qtc of .707 and this provides a F3 of about 68Hz. The driver you linked to should work fine but you probably should use two in each box you built.

Here's a very easy-to-use online sealed box calculator: Car Audio - Sealed Subwoofer Box Design Calculator In a vehicle, since cabin gain is approximately 12dB/octave, a Qtc of approximately .707 usually provides the flattest response. If I recall correctly, on average, cabin gain starts at...

Totally depends on the T-S parameters.

No, I mean .18 ft3. Makes for a Qtc of .707 and a F3 of 66Hz. Should be a very good match for most vehicles after considering 12dB/octave cabin gain below 70Hz or so.

BTW, I tried to link to the driver I suggested but the page opens "blank". Why?? Try parts-express.com and search for W8-740P

What about a Tang Band W8-740P? Proper box volume is about .18 ft3 for a Qtc of .7

Does this fit a 1994 GMC pickup w/ 5.0L without mounting modification?

Class A 50 II Manual Rubicon 502 Manual Selling prices are all over the place... check eBay sold listings. The "Class A" isn't true class A as (I think) no car audio amps are. It does have a slightly higher bias and this does seem to make a difference. The Class A amps are a tiny bit smoother...

Any HO alternators on sale for a 2003 Hyundai Elantra?

I have a NIB Tang Band W8-740C I can sell for $60 plus shipping.
