ID8v3's - put a pair in about 0.8 cubic feet with 300W - you will be happy...

use those subs if your going to build a box,or jl makes a infinite baffle 8 (ib8) that needs no enclosure.they can mount like a 6 by 9.underneath the rear deck.

id8 = image dynamics 8 http://www.imagedynamicsusa.co....html

re8 = resonant engineering http://www.respl.com/


Both of these are subs that will yield best performance if run in small boxes.

the e8a is too deep and its not recommended for infinite baffle, unless you add a resistor to the second coil and raise the Qts, then do some other modification.

The IDv3 series does very well in small sealed, but will do great ported and IB....
