Need help choosing a 8" Sub

I've narrowed it down to 3 choices:

ID8V http://www.imagedynamicsusa.com/spec.php?type=encspec&id=ID8D2%20V.3

ED9K.2

RE8

Need a SQ sub that I can have some fun with. Anyone tried these subs before and can provide some feedback?

I've had really good experiences with the RE 8's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

how 'bout this one?

I am also looking for a pair of 8's.

I like the sound of ED's. I think it would sound good in a sealed or ported box (low tuning).

What car/truck is this going in?

I would add SoundSplinter RLi 8's to that for sure. Otherwise RE

Assassin 8?

I can get you the eDs pretty cheaply

x2 on the Assassin. Mine (the previous model) sounds great.

I'm planning on using the sub in a sealed 0.35 ft3 box. It's going into the front footwell of a Porsche Boxster. 1 8" should be enough since cabin space is small.

Assassin 8? I've never heard of em, could someone direct a link?

Flipx99: I maybe interested in your sub, since I'm leaning towards eD right now, I'll pm you.

That will work according to eDs site. I have both D2 and D4.

I have 4 of these for a home project. Not sure how they would work for a car. . .

$39 each, but they are on backorder.

I know looks don't make a speaker, but man are these things massive for an 8!

I owned RE8 and swap it with ID8, played as loud, more musical and tonality correct. I don't know how you can call the RE8 SQ sub.

I like my Assassins. Granted, I have the older models and haven't got to play with the new ones yet.
