Bunch of 8's VS One big SPL sub...

Heh, never said I was doing this. I'm happy with my single 10.

An 18" is similar to the 10", so you might as well do it too.

8 8" 1508's can handle more power daily.

The 8 8" 1508s would also have more cone area being at 401 vs the Omega's 254

The Omega might still have more displacement, I'm not sure on that one. Take a while to figure out on my part, and I"m lazy - quite frankly.

Omega is BY FAR more cost efficient. The 8 8's would be far cooler, and probably louder, honestly.

I, like everyone else, say buy four 10's or four 12's in a nice box and power.

Four 12" Omegas would be nice... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Oh it's over now. Once Grubbs lays down his verdict there is no arguing.

Ohhh cmon now, we all know no one listens to me.

I changed my mind.

Four Omega 10's in a 6th order or folded horn, it's up to you, but that's your only option now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I don't see why you would go with the 8 8's unless you are out to prove that 8's can be loud too.

Every other reason suggests you go with the 18.

2 Omega 18"s in a folded horn or a 4th order BP T-Line hybrid.

cone area is useless when you dont include xmax for a total displacement. The 8's may indeed be more because i have no calculated it out and i do not know the xmax of a 1508, but just so you know...

I can already feel my teeth chattering against one another from this suggestion.

This topic is a hot one. I like it.

If you have a Tahoe, you might as well use all the space right??

Fuggin' right. Lol.

4 10's is cool. I did it with some older treos and the output/punchy sq bass was pretty cool

 

[Boomin_tahoe 5,000+ posts]

Do 8 10's. I was gonna, and gave it serious thought but due to the economy downturn, I'm happy with what I got. 8 8's is something you don't see everyday. Hell 8 10's should sound cool.

I like the 8 8's idea either with DD's or AA's. Wouldn't waste the $$$ on JL personally...
