[QUOTE="sundownz, post: 6512110, member: 549523"] 2" coil is about the limit for an 8" with a traditional spider (DD 1508 is 2" as is my new SA-8 coming in February)... if you go to a 2.5" your spider is too small and you are just putting power on the sub for no reason, it's not moving any farther than a 2" with less power... and with a 3" coil you basically have a heat-sink for a coil as you aren't doing much at all *laughs* You need to remember that the spider cannot be wider than the mounting hole.
