Good 8" Subs?

[modskwod 10+ year member]

Hey, i am putting a system in my car, and I have very limited space. The biggest the sub can be is eight inches. Does anyone know of any good ones? The only good one I can find is the AQ 8 inch one here. Does anyone know of a better one?

I thought the 1508 would handle 500 watts RMS/1800 PEAK? One of my 1508s should be here tomorrow, so I guess I will know then //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Also, my dd1010 was rated for 300 watts RMS but takes 600 watts RMS with no issues!

After looking up all those subs, I think I'm gonna go wit the DD 1508. Anywhere I can buy them online? I can get them in a town about 1.5 hours away from me, but I'd just as soon get them online.

contact DD tell them nearest dealer is too far away. They will sell to you.

The 1508's really lack in low-end...unless you don't mind. I'd rather get a SoundSplinter rl-i, Ascendant Assassin, RE8, or Dayton HF series 8" sub, and tune around 35hz or run sealed.

They sell the RE8's on ebay for $53 shipped with like a 2-year warranty

Ruh ro, how much do they lack? Will two 1508s give me less sub bass output than my single ported dd1010a? The 1010a plays into the 30hz range pretty effortlessly!
