We guys, since we just sold our home...TODAY, my wife said I can get some 8s, so I plan on getting some Utopia 8" Subs for the rear quarterpanels where my midbass crossovers used to be located. I looked behind that panel and there is mucho room. Since my car is ONLY SQ, I plan on the two 8's to handle all sub-bass duties. I was just wondering more than anything, what you guys thought about this thing. Here is a picture about where I plan to put the subs.

That thing is pretty. I love the unique red magnet stacks. That thing's on FIRE! Focal makes some good products, so I'm sure they'll do you just great.

so wait, you sold a house and all you can afford with the money is a pair of 8" subs?

LOL...well yea, kinda, have to use the money for the newer home. Also to pay off the second mortgage. But I get to snag some 8's for competition this year...so this is my decision. I don't think that the 10's that Geolemon has would fit nearly as readily. So 8's it is.

actually, after hearing the box size of Geolemon's subs, I might be able to go that route afterall. It will more than likely matter more about mounting depth.

Yes Rob, they are expensive, but I have heard them, and they do have some balls to them
