The RE8 is a gem for sure, great SQ and output for the price. I think DodgeRam had 8" PG XMAX's for a while, don't quote me on that though. The RE8 definitely gets my vote, works well even off of very litle power, in .2 sealed.

**This is the 8A.44 model. From what I see it's around $185 US, but it gives the JL 8W7 and 8SL7 a run for their money.
