A sub is just a sub.... what do you have to power them? What are your size constraints for an enclosure?

2-3 8s 1000 watts really narrow it down to the vfl or soundqubed

Vfl 8 all day. I have 2 on a 1000w alpine amp in my girlfriends Honda accord coupe trunked in 2 cubes tuned at 34hz. They are very nice. Get loud and clean for 2 8's. She got a 244$ sound ordinance fine the first day in town. They are heavier than I would of figured a little 8 to be also. Probly close to 20 pounds of pound lol.

My .02

Have read that the sq and vfl are the same sub's btw. I got the vfls on e bay for 110.00 each
