[QUOTE="kush-divinity, post: 5660942, member: 599719"] Ah, no I don't have the 18's, I am looking for some. No one around here has ran 18's since the mid-90's. Everyone is on the Memphis scene, running 1 or 2 PR12 off of a Walmart amp. I simply want a very musical enclosure, even if it is very quiet. And I am fully aware that with that much cone area, I can get loud if I desire. I may end up settling for 4 15's in the end, though it may perform as well or better than my idea of 18's, it wont have that "OMFG" factor when looking at them. I am leaning towards 4 peavey lowriders, but the single 8ohm coils throw me off....... I must get to a .5ohm load if I want any decent power to drive them. Or, as my retarded brother in law tells me now, I should run 8 cheap 12's ported. My only wonder before planning was whether the placement of thew port would affect my sound any. I would prefer to run 1 large port as opposed to 2 smaller ones. [/QUOTE]
