The 8" LTW Subwoofer box OFFICIAL Feeler

[StereoInstaller1]

I think we ought to be thinking about some other options, but if you want, I have this weekend open to do your install.

I still say use a little 4 channel on this, then do something else (E46 did you say? Hmmmm...) with the JL beast.

You should hear the red car. I swear, it is damn near as much output as the 10", only a couple db down at very low frequencies, mighty impressive in my book.

It's a "nice size". Very cool!

Looks awesome Luke! My paypal eagerly awaits the day I have money again.

oh dear god, that beast.

Now that I have the 8" box down, I could make you a custom version. We would need to be about 2" deeper (6.5" diameter magnet, 6" deep? SHEEEEEIT!) and obviously made of 3/4" instead of 1/2"...loses the LTW thing.

If you are interested, make up your mind EXACTLY what you want and email me, we can work out a deal.

Sales@germanaudiospecialties DOT COM is a good address.

I want to hear one of these

[Dozyproductions]

Knowing Luke's work it's going to sound awesome and it won't sacrifice much space and weight!

You have PM.

Luke, sent you an email yesterday

Anyone debating getting an 8" box, DO IT. I have more output in this box than my 10 I had before. Luke and I finally met up and tuned my system and I have to tell you, this box puts out an ample amount of bass. Perfect for my needs as a daily driver. My system sounds AMAZING and I couldn't be happier with the sound quality! Thank you Luke (and Nigel). This system finally fulfills my car audio needs! Can't wait for the door panels you are going to create, 3 way active here I come!

Can I get a quote for a box shipped to 94555? And what is in the entire package?

OK, so the box is a 2 part thing, and you have some choices.

Just today I pulled the test mule from the car so I can get some less crappy pics.





Yes, it really is that thin:



I only have this shot of it installed. It is so far under the rear deck it is very hard to photograph



As far as pricing, it is $250 for the box and $25 for the amp rack. Shipping should be roughly the same as the 10" box. I can likely get it to Fremont for about $30.

There are LOTS of size variance between 8" woofers so make sure and tell me what you are thinking before you buy!

The thing is just a kick. No one who looks in the trunk first believes it. I always show it off with "Get Ready" from Sublime, then drop "Caress Me Down"...the mirrors are shaking, the bass is clean and deep, plenty of loud...and I point out I only have 140 watts running the bass. "NFW" is the most common comment.

To be fair, this car has a cloth rear seat with half the foam over the skipass taken out, so the seat does not effect the sound much, but the thing still kicks ass. If you are OK with the looks, port the seat. It works really well.

I think an Infinity Reference 8 and MB Quart 60.4 would just kill my setup. It takes so little to make these cars just rock. Shove a deck with high pass filters in and use stock Premium Sounds all the way around, you will be happy. Go all crazy and put a decent set of component speakers in and you will be shocked. Use 5 channels of decent power and a decent deck and you will post stuff like Greg did up a couple of posts...that car just plain sounds good. As in NOT "good for an 8"" or "good for how small it is" or "good for how little I spent"...but just plain good.

looks good. just have to figure out my issue with my rear strut bar... looks like that won't fit, huh?

I take that back, it looks like it's going to fit if I install that before the strut bar.

Bernzie, post a pic of your strut bar, in your style of photography, I know we will be able to tell, you take terrific pics.

The depth is adjustable, but this discussion is about people interested in buying an 8" subwoofer box...

Very interested now that i have ski pass rear seats. Gotta sell more parts to make more money to buy this... lol. I don't know what to install though. Idk anything about what powers what. I need spoon feeding on this. I just want a dolby surround sound effect in my car. I was spoiled by my volvo with the hk's
