I know how your creativity is put 8- 6.5 on the inside wall 😆😆😆😆

I see you gears turning already 🤔🤔🤔🤔

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Do some math and figure out the air volume and use the appropriate size speaker/speakers for the hz range you want the speakers to play in to complement your system

2 10's Deeper bass response due to ability to play bit lower frequency. Potential to get 50hz range and maybe even to 45hz. 8's about 55hz as low as they go. Now depending on amp selection 2 10's will be much more efficient than 4 8's. 4 8's have more sq inches of cone area, will have more impact, but won't play as low. Both options wired correctly will yield great results. 4 10's would be huge but very hard to fit amp to run that much in the bag as well.

Definitely not much room left over for an amp after quad 10s.

Borrowed picture from Hot Rods and Handlebars.

Yooper, most guys chase a unicorn. You bring that to whole new level. You're chasing a whole family of unicorns.

I don't know if you have enough red and yellow zip ties for that install to sound right!!! Lol
