Need help deciding on 8's

[bluemarvin3030]

Since it seems that SQ will never restock the hds208's, I guess I'll have to pick something else. Gonna run 4 8's in an extended cab Silverado. Need suggestions. Looking to spend $400-500. Preferably dual 2 ohm. Any suggestions?

swap your alternator for an AD244 if you need more output, super cheap at junkyards

Ok, I'll check into the alt. And yeah I'm going sealed. My OCD is forcing me to do four 8's. Looking at 2³ sealed available airspace.

A few builds out there switch sundown 6.5" under rear seat that look nice also.

Good deal. May grab a couple myself. Had 4 original E8s in my MR2 years ago.

Saw those. Read some bad reviews and they have since been discontinued.
