[QUOTE="Dirtrider4eva, post: 7417358, member: 631267"] yes and no... theres a ton of physics here. lol. you can go 4 sealed. 3 barely ported. 2 optimally ported. its really what you want. i myself, would run 2 ported optimally with big power but i am not in that situation. the whole saying more cone area = louder, but you'll be losing your % of available power to each sub since you will be running it at a strange impedance. say you getting 1200-1300 to them at 3, each is getting 400, 1200/1500 is only 80 of available power so to say to the subs, where running 2 of them will give them a split 1500 ( more like 1600 since the amp is underated guranteed) so your getting all of the available power. now thats not considered to much, for Jacob has run wayyy more power to a single SA-8. your best bet will be trying both out, seeing what sounds better, gets louder, etc to your liking.
