How does this relate to SI? ...just the size of the driver, or? ...and what over-motored 8" is that?

Well these 8's aren't exactly "shallow mount", so a decent sized kick would be around 0.4 cubes hopefully. If it's any smaller than that it could cause problems.

Haha, I'm glad you like them. I need to hear them with the MA on them! Hell, with only 350 watts each and barely moving they were WAY too loud for me. They were moving my nostrils, seriously. You (and any other 15" owners) are just nuts.

What what??? Nah, they're going to be SVC 4 Ohm.

We don't publish T/S's because they aren't necessary on a component set. The 307 and 327's will do well in either sealed kicks or door applications, both the 5" and 6" drivers are very flexible. On the note of power handling, if memory serves me right we had lower numbers until a few days ago when I bumped them up on the 307's after adding the 327's to our site, so they haven't been the same as what Morel publishes on their speakers. If they are the same now, it's just coincidence. We won't give out any more information on the the components than what's published on our web page - woofers, tweeters, or crossovers. If you like your Morel's though, why not keep them?

Thanks guys. You've given us ideas for new shirts after this run, but the phrase for this run of T-shirts is staying. For the people who get the reference, it's classic. Two words; Boogie Nights.

The only similarity is the look. There are about 5 companies out there that look like Morel's, but aren't. One of them at IASCA finals in '02 had yellow cones but looked identicle other than that. Yes it's a neo motor and has a 3" coil, but that's it. That's like asking if our new woofers are Eclipse's with paper cones.

Knock yourself out on the visor. Just one condition - you must show the forum pictures after it's done. The front of the shirt will have our logo printed on the left breast.

I'm working on the merchandise page right now, but you can buy SI stickers. I just got in a batch of both white and silver large and small stickers. I'm getting some red one's in soon, but I have white and silver in stock right now.

4 Ohm.

302's possibly, but 307 grilles, no such luck. The 302's are a standard 6.5" "S" speaker, so anything OEM "S" should work (AKA: Over-sized). You'll know better once you purchase the last pair of them. Only one pair remains.

I am closing this thread. I know you guys are anxious about getting your subs, but every customer gets an email with their tracking number when their speakers are shipped. All threads similar to this will be deleted immediately. I am doing the best I can, and all that I ask is that you be patient. You will get your speakers as soon as I have time to test, inspect, break-in, re-package and ship them.

They will be shipped out today (Wednesday July 30'th).

Yep, that Del Sol is my car. That black Sunfire is my sisters car with one claw-basketed 12" in the trunk. PS: Steve, give me a call sometime. We need to go shows together once I get my 8's in.

Go HERE for pictures of the 8.

True. That 8W7 is by far the best sounding JL sub I've ever heard. But for your Neon...a pair of SI 8's would be the jam.

The mechanical inward limitation of either the new or the older SI 12's is not quite 1.5", which equals out to something around 2.6" total peak excursion. It sure does look like a lot, but it simply can't move more than 3". Either the cone will start hitting the spider rolls or the inner spider joint/roll will start hitting the top plate. Repeated smacking of the spider to top plate or cone to spider is not recommended of course and is not covered under warranty, so be careful.

A tuning difference from 29 Hz to 45 Hz is a HUGE difference. You'll still have bass, and lots of it, but it won't drop as low as before. Just look at where you're tuning the enclosure to. SPL drops off dramatically below tuning due to the way vented enclosures operate. Your SPL score might go up but you will loose low-end. PS: Keep in mind that the type of vehicle, enclosure type, enclosure placement, electrical upgrades, altitude, temperature, and all those other good things come into play with SPL. The same exact setup in two different cars will result in two different SPL readings.

My Koda's are running from 63 Hz on up to 200 for midbass duty and they are coasting. They handle what I've giving them without any problems what-so-ever. 50-65 Hz or higher highpass to the Koda's will do just fine.

WOA! SWEET! That install looks great Micheal! Wow...very very nice. BTW: I showed off the 307's in my car this weekend. Most of the responses were "wow". You know that all too well though.

The 8 is fully broken in and sounds phenomenal. It's tight, accurate, and gets really stinking low for a single 8. I was going to put a 12 and two 8's in my car (switchable between the two setups of course) but now I'm just going to put four 8's if that tells you anything. We're working on raising some capital to get them made. Once that happens, a production run of the 8's will be made and all will be well.

Well fella's, I'm back. The meet in TN had a great turnout of SIN forum members and also with a lot of big-dog's in the industry. The SI 8 and 307's did their fair share of impressing. I'll get to my emails tomorrow. And yes, the speakers are in. None of them have been broken in yet as they are sitting on pallets right now.

2 cubes isn't necessary for a 12", but it will certainly do. I say just leave it where it is, it'll perform just fine. As far as sealed enclosures go, there is no such thing as too big.

Click Here They were shipped on Thursday. We should have them in by the end of next week.

You can also get a 12 second car for $5k, but a Ferrari 360 Modena would still run a 12 sec. 1/4 but be a lot nicer. What I'm getting at is do you just want to be loud and nothing more or get loud and sound good while doing it? If you want to have good SQ while doing it, the choice is obvious...SI. Just ask around on this, or any other, forum.
