October 20, 200816 yr Admin Listening preferences? Have you considered rebuilding a box for the E8's or adding a 2nd pair?
October 20, 200816 yr Author I listen to rap and 80's hairband music . The box for the E8's is already the best box I could really build for them 2.6 cubic ported. I was also able to hit 139db at 36 Hz with the 2 of them. But I
October 20, 200816 yr Admin Why do you think the E8's will break, are they showing signs of being close to failure?
October 20, 200816 yr Author well the one did start to break. the glue that holds the spyder to the basket started to come up so i had to use some superglue to redo it and it works fine now but i still worry about it when i turn it up.
October 20, 200816 yr How about an SSA ICON now that they're back in stock. A DVC2 model would love 740w.
October 20, 200816 yr Author Do you think the Icon would out perform the peerless xxls I will post the specs in a bit. I’m fairly sure it would but I have had very good experiences with peerless being built really rugged.Peerless 830877 12" XXLS Autosound Subwoofer$191.2510+ $172.13Madisound# 830877 View PDF Brochure (37 KB)Peerless 830877 12" XXLS Automotive SubwooferExtra Long Stroke SubNomex fiber coneDecorative logo and magnet coverBig roll rubber surround51mm Edited October 20, 200816 yr by 944guy
October 20, 200816 yr why are you considering that Peerless? With power on tap it's going to be wasted, and I don't know if they just don't list the ported size or not, but madisound only lists a sealed size recommendation. So it may not like ported. Icon would be much better. The box wouldn't need to be 3-4 cubes.
