Ah guys... come on... DD is for people who don't know the difference between a fart can and a straight pipe V8.
Funny... I've never heard of Soundstream.
The one driver I was considering using for my midbass only comes in an 8 ohm variant which means I probably have to keep searching. (4 ohm is the min for decent power out of a car amp sadly)
The worst part about living in Canada is that Partsexpress charges you up the A$$ for shipping. $50 to ship two 5.25" midranges. The best part was the oversized box they came in plus the nice brokerage fees that were levied against me because they refuse to ship USPS. Otherwise I'd have a pair of
these on their way right now.
Lets have a vote, who in their right mind
wouldn't want this?

26 MM of Xmax for under $200? Who would have thought... Fi car audio is another great place to look as well.
Getting side tracked...yet still on topic, gotta love it.
Ported boxes can't be big enough to cover the range I'm looking for in a car (20 Hz or lower tune) so sealed is the best for that situation. If you just like the 30-50 Hz boom, ported can work quite well, just make sure you've got a highpass filter in place or you'll physically damage your sub(s).
How about we have a competition... Lets pick the song School by Supertramp and see who gets the loudest clean SPL in the first minute of the song... And the fun part is, theres no bass, all thats going to be stressed is your midrange driver and perhaps your tweeter if you're unlucky enough to have it crossed over that low.
Or... Dubalicious by Bass Mekanik, perhaps Tocatta in B by the same guy. Tocatta in B WILL destroy your ported subs unless you've got them high pass'd so don't say I didn't warn you!
