[QUOTE="tymoto21, post: 8517159, member: 589669"] i havnt even put power to my sundown x8 yet but it sure is a beast sa8v1 and v2 are stupid ruggid ive done 2 8's in ported, folded horn and tapped horn. ported is smallest. folded horn was only slightly larger than the ported but was louder and had larger bandwidth tapped horn was ginormous but not any louder than folded horn but dug alot deeper (calculated 3200rms to a pair of v1's at 30hz before bottoming) i had it designed. were ran on a D9 at 2ohm most of their life. the limiting factor on the sa8's is the suspension. the coil can take a ton of power before failing. i ripped my 1's v1's and reconed them with spl parts, they lost some low end but really picked up 40hz+ and could take some power. any of the "good" 8's will take a 5k to 4 of them provided gains are set right and box isnt terrible.
