Audiobahn makes $25 8" subs that ryanbgb22 is running 6 of, and its freeking awesome…

JL makes 8" subs that are godlike, but a little over two hundred each, and i think elemental designs makes nice 8’s for decent. Id just stick with the audiobahn ones, and get like 4 of them. Ryanbgb22 is running about 2500w into his 6, so id say 1500+ for 4…

ah. i was wondering why you wanted 2 8’s instead of 1 10. I’ve been running 1 10" kicker L7 with a kicker kx800.2 bridged mono (way more power than i need, I know. its the only amp I have though, left over from my old big-boom-system days) and its more than i could ever ask for

I’m sure if you heard some of the more expensive setups, you’d change that quote 😛 Audiobahn can get pretty loud for cheap, but there are just some things that get better with cost, and sound systems tend to be one of them.
