I have a pair of 8" scanspeak midbasses. the model is pw21wo-20-08 08 ohms 903. i know they can handle about 100 watts rms each. i had them in a ported box and want to put them into 2 small sealed boxs and throw them in my truck, am lacking in the midbass. i have mbquart pce216's so they will be pretty even. will bridge the amp and wire the 8's in parallell so i get a 4ohm load. does anyone have the spec sheet on this model as i lost it? also, what would be the best crossover point and slope between the 8's and the quarts? i was thinking around 200-250hz. i guess it all depends on how the boxs do in the truck. thanks

Don't recognize that part number. 21W is tha designation for Scan-Speak's 8" woofers, but the only models I know have numbers like 21W/8551, 21W/8554 and 21W/8555. Check with Madisound. ------------- Support the12volt.com

yeah, i was going to email them tomorrow as i bought them from them a couple of years back. will wiring them in paralell to bring them to a 4 ohm load be ok when bridging the amp, and can i wire them in paralell at the amp? i found this serial number on the surround sr 185/13

by golly, i think you are right. would this woofer be suited for the application i am going to use it in? the quarts are rated at around 130 watts rms. it looks the same, though the label in the pic is completely different.
