Assasin 8's

[mjmarovi 8]

Ok, I am most likely purchasing the L1 and L4 legatia drivers from Hybrid next week, and would like to use the Assasin 8's to complete a 3-way active component system. My plan was to xover the L4 down to ~140 maybe 150, then have the 8's from that number down to about 45, and the 15" Q from that down to 28. Would the assassin 8 be great for this? also, I wanted to mount it in the doors, (the L4's and L1's are going in kick panels). how wold it do in IB and what kind of power handling am I looking at? (i could build little sealed enclosures for them in doors if needed.

(crossing fingers) hopefully will be ready for some of next seasons SQ competitions.

Id say probably not... they qts is a little too low for my tastes for a midbass, not too mention the 1W/1m isnt the best either. Oh, and the mounting depth... dont get me started on that (as I talk bad about my own products )

To be honest, there are better 8s out there to do the job you are wanting these to do. While I love selling products, Id rather you be happy. These were designed as true subs and not real midbass drivers (especially not in an IB or freeair alignment).

Now if you can somehow stuff a good enclosure in the doors, things might be a little different.

Alright, I see what you're saying, I have to build out my door panels anyway to fit 8's, I really want 8's, especially since the L4 can cover such a large range a 6 would almost be pointless, if in the correct sealed enclosure in the door panel how would it perform between say 45hz-130hz??

btw: not sure if you remember who I am, but the friend that was with me at the world finals is trying to order a couple 12" X's on the closeout, sent out an e-mail Friday I believe and waiting on a reply, I know you're busy and he's not in a rush just want to make sure he gets a pair, original e-mail was sent to [email protected] but didn't go through that was sent last Wednesday.

As always thanks for the support Scott!

p.s. your design which is turning heads everywhere, (I've actually had a shop owner call up his boy with two 15" solobarics on 2500watts telling him i'm hitting 2...wait...maybe 3 times harder!! lol on 1200 tested watts at 14.4v gotta love it!!

bump! Would you have any other suggestions on mid-bass drivers that would do that extremely well? i would still like to use the assasin if it would work well in a sealed enclosure for my application

Peerless SLS 8 is an outstanding midbass driver for IB applications.

Scott, still waiting on reply for those assasin's in a sealed enclosure, thanks man.

Scott, the assasin's sealed what you think?? from 50hz to ~125??
