Description
The m3 8 is an 8" long X-Max subwoofer. Long hours in the R&D department is what it took to develop the newest version of our 8" subwoofer.
We designed a tall roll stitched surround, oversized spiders, and a tall cast frame that allows for extreme amounts of cone travel. All of these newly designed parts allow for lower frequency reproduction.
The bolted down spaced spider design keeps it all linear. The m3 8 uses a gap cooled design to allow the 2" copper coil to thermally take more power than other 2" coil motors with the traditional pole venting.

DC Audio m3 2ohm subwoofer
First I bought 2 because I spent long hours on the phone screen and YouTube researching 8 inch subs to fit my needs which are basically just SQL. Then I got two more because they were ground pounding and still only wired to 2ohm on the JP23OG aka version 1. If you want probably the nicest built subwoofer you will ever have that backs looks up with performance then don’t look at any more subs. By now you already know the price is sweet and if you will believe a person that has no reason to BS you then get one, two, or however many you want. You won’t be disappointed

dc m3 8 on rockford 750.1
First off if you’re looking to buy this sub, it is a great 8 and it sounds good at 600 watts which it’s rated at. Now what I had previously was a sundown sd2 8 which is rated at 300 Watts rms. In my opinion the sundown sounded just as good but not quite as loud. The sundown could take more power, I gave it about 450 Watts without a problem. I tried giving the dc more power than 600 Watts and it did not like it at all. I think one of the coils is burnt. With all that said, if you’re looking for a bad ass 8, I would go with a sundown product. But if you want to try something else, the dc is great just don’t give it any more than 600 Watts.
