well it is 22% more cone over 2 round 10's - supprised no one has done it thus far with how compeditive street A has been. Not to mention you could get the ohm load down to a .35 overall or a 1.4 - might work good with a killer pair of strappables. Just think with 8's in tiny boxes how large your impedence rise would be, a strapped pair may run at that .35 - BUT will 3 kickers take 8000 watts ?????

time will tell ?????

I've competed with L7 8's. CRX + (2)KX2500.1's + L7 8's = 155.1 db outlaw. I'm sure it'll do a 50+ at the dash. I think I can get another db or so out of them. I just haven't found the time to do it.
