can the e8 take it?

What kind of power can the e8 take in a 0.28 sealed box? Im thinking about doing 4 of them off an hcca275, but im not sure if they can take the power.

The 275 puts out around 1600 @ 1 ohm right?

theres people giving them over 400. you would probably be good.

sweet, you guys think 4 of them will give me some decent output?

Jacob had told me that thermally they can take around 400-500, but mechanically you want to watch out. Why you want to put so much power to them anyway, they only need around 200 to get really going

the 1508 you have now can take 1000 clean wattage(meaning non clipped)....why change?

Just wanting to get some good output from them, guess i'll have to find another amp for them

the 1508 can take double that

i can't get ANY output from my 1508, i've tried 3 different boxes and i've gotten the same results. I need to try a different amp I guess.

yea the orion only gives 600...so i would say something a lot stronger....

send me a pm and let me know the designs you have used.

theres no reason you shouldnt see upper 130's or into the 140's with it

we broke 150 with a single in an ext cab f150.

the 4 i had in my ranger were very close to the number you mention on a Z1a
