pioneer 8" or alpine 10" shallow mount sub? - Toyota Yaris Forums

got a question. i know bigger is better, but these are the only 2 options i have within a certain price point that will do what i want with the box space i have. my box is 12x14x7 OD...and is about 0.4 cft. i will be mounting sub INSIDE box to protect from seats and objects...so bottom mount is a must. it will be ported as well.

first, the pioneer is a 8", shallow mount with a bottom mount capability. it takes between .2 and .5 cft space. it's 130 bux. it's freq range is from 35-2500hz

second is the alpine 10", shallow mount with bottom mount capability. it takes between .3 and .6 cft space. this one is 200 bux and freq range is from 30-2500hz. power is about twice that of the 8 and can handle 800w.

my amp is a kenwood 1000w amp from best buy. it's a 2 channel amp and bridge capable. i'll be bridgine for max power. however, i wont be crankin up the power. it's all about sound and not about power..

so my question is, anyone have experience with either of the 2 subs mentioned?
