Help me spend money!!!

well.. actually have a few question.. so bare with me fellas.. i'm a newbie..

price isn't a factor.. though i would like to save a much as possible.. but given that i want something nice and clean.. i'm willing to put down the cash...

i currently have a memphis mc1000d amp and wondering how many re8 or ed8a sub i could run on it??

which out of the two do you think will perform the best.. i'm leaning more towards spl (65/35)

pricing on re8 is very good but for some reason i can't access the ed site.. wondering how much it would be for one..

i really want 4 (6 if possible).. and i'm open to other sub if you fellas have any in mind..

thanks in advance..

IIRC if you buy 5 RE8's you get 1 free. There is no 8" subs on eD site

so you're saying that i can run 6 re8 on my memphis, correct? or would it be too much???

if not on their site, do you or anyone know the cost of one (ed8a)?

should i get a memphis mc500 and run 4 re8? do you think that'll be enough.. looking in the range of 140-145...

Thats perfect...run like 120 Rms to each 8....get 6 of them. You will love it. Ported enclosure for sure i would think also

120w to each, there gonna pound nice

 

[sleek_benzo 10+ year member]

don't you think that's a little too much power for them??

maybe i should buy the memphis mc500 for them?? what do you think??

spec:

RMS Power 4 ohm (Watts) 250X1

RMS Power 2 ohm (Watts) 500x1

thinking i'm gonna buy the memphis mc-500d for them..

i'll get 4 re8 .. should be sending about 125 to each sub..

i'll just save the mc-1000d for other car...

is ed8a out of the question?? how come no one is recommending them.. i heard they were nice???

 

[supa_c 5,000+ posts]

i dont think eD sells them any more. They look pretty nice tho.

 

[sleek_benzo 10+ year member]

oh well.. my luck i guess.. i was thinking about 4 8w7 but that something that expected already since i have w7 on my other vehicle..

should i get 5 re8????

IIRC if you buy 5 RE8's you get 1 free.
