[QUOTE="stones, post: 1737, member: 540734"] I liked my eclipse 8700's better than my perfect's, I found that the 8700's had the same sound quality as the perfects but hit alot harder. I had the eclipses in a dual 1.25cft box(sealed no fiberfill) powered by a pioneer PRS-X720(650watts rms at 4 ohms, two 8ohm coils in parallel, the 720 can also handle a 2ohm mono load) I tried my infinity pefect 12.1's in a dual 1.25cft box and a dual 1.6cft box(both sealed), and used a concept cc2002(950rms2ohms) and a concept ccd1200(800rms2ohms). Trying the different boxes and amps didn't help, the perfect's still didn't perform as well as the eclipse 8700's did. Two things to note- I owned my eclipse subs for over a year and I never had to replace them from blowing up or wearing out, the only reason I still dont have them is that they were stolen. I owned my ifinity's for 3 months and replaced 4 of them, one had a factory flaw and the other three burned out their voice coils when cranked up to "standard basshead levels". I paid 300 dollars each(canadian) for the eclipses and 365 dollars each for the infinity's. I have returned my current perfect 12s to the store i bought them at and exchanged them for a pair of mtx thunder 8000 12's, they hit hard and go loud but they still don't perform as well as the eclipses.
