8w7 in a Crx?
 

I wanna get a small, but good 8" sub for my crx. Something like the JL 8w7, in a sealed box .

Any thoughts on this lil thing ?

I think you would be happy with this sub, just be sure to give it at least
300W RMS.

what amp do you recommend ? Mono ?

Last 8" elemental design sub I had was junk...The one with the flat cone..

The DD 8" sub in a small slot port box delivers god awful amounts of bass and sounds amazing doing so, it is another sub to consider. www.ddaudio.com

Great sub, but it told me that it likes breathing room. Treat it to a ported box.

BTW, which eD sub did you have and why was it junk?
I'm currently running an 8" eD and I enjoy it.

Is that not the eD8 that you ran off a 750watt amp? I remember that - I believe at the time most people concluded the woofer was not at fault.. :dunno:

We don't forget much around here.

Its just like that guy that was on here 5 years ago telling everyone that he had a van with 24 kicker subs. I have yet to let him forget that he tried to bullshit us. By the way the guy is still on here. I won't mention his name but it starts with a B.

heh... glad I'm not the only one that remembers that incident :D

hehehe I remember that fun filled thread

If im not mistaken remember in Milton when richard stereo caught fire that was fun wasnt it richard.

I remember that too. It was probably wise that he changed his user name, because I stopped taking anything seriously that was posted under that first name. Only last year did I realize that the "B" guy you mentioned was the same guy who went by that original user name that started with an "S"

Granted, he has smartened up, and has become reasonably knowledgable since then, so I'll give him credit - but yes, in his first years he did pull more BS than the Kicker stunt.

ok to the OP, I considered going with one of these too, but the price was an issue for me. From the one demo i heard,it was loud and output was great but $400 + $$$ for a box i couldn't afford it.

As for power, JL recommends optimal power is 250w, so the 250/1 is perfectly matched for it.

The L7 8 is supposed to be a good performer. We stuck 4 into a tiny sealed box in a regular cab pickup years ago and it hammered pretty well.

ya ? prolly cheaper and lighter box too. :)
Imma check the kicker out too.
