[QUOTE="DDFrontier, post: 2699676, member: 574164"] Ok, I have a SEALED box for two eights with a COMMON airspace of 0.95 cubic feet. I also have a maximum mounting depth of about 4.5". The box is down-firing and I could make MDF spacers if need be, but that would put the subs very close to the floor of the truck. I will be able to provide them with about 200-225watts RMS each with two 4 ohm SVC subs. I was looking at the AA Assassins, but they appear to be waaaaay too tall for my box. Any other suggestions that would work well with my specs? I had two Pioneer IMPP (the old school ones with the Diamond Tread pattern on the cone). They sounded OK, but I just wasn't satisfied. They would vibrate your chest with the bassline in certain songs, but would sound "flappy or boomy" on other songs. I found myself constantly adjusting the EQ from song to song. I experimented with polyfill and found that I liked it better without any in the box. [/QUOTE]
