I'm running 6 Sa 8 v2s on 2 1500s in a 6th order in my Tahoe. They sound ok on the low end(28-38hz), but they sound like they have so much more to give. I'm debating switching up enclosures, but I wanted to get the opinions of people who have run them. Is it worth it to give the subs more time to break in before I switch boxes? I'm also considering adding another 1500.

I've only had the subs for a couple of weeks. I only have a chance to get on them driving to work and around town.

Well I wanted to get back some of my cargo space from my 21" warden that was back there.

So you chose six 8's lol...

Either way I would suggest a new enclosure. A standard ported enclosure.

What are the specs of the 6th order ?

We have a trio of the SA-8 v.2s in one of my vehicles tuned to ~29 Hz -- peaks at 29 Hz and does about 145 dB there :)

I would've done less, but I wanted to over-compensate. The box also allows for me to throw stuff on top and in front of it, which is something I absolutely could not do with the Warden.

I don't remember exactly the tuning, I'll have to look at my design notes again. It is essentially a 1:1 ratio 6th order, with each inner chamber 2.25 cubes and the outer chamber 4.5 cubes.

I didn't do the design, surreal from **** did it. I just didn't remember the tuning. I'm waiting for my ported design now.

The tuning is 28hz in the rear/60hz in the front.

See how it performs with an standard enclosure.
