I'd go to a good 10" rather than an 8" cuz to me, 8's just don't do much for me. I rather get good 6x9's.

if placed in the right place, 8's can give you decent bass, BUT i prefer a 10inch instead.

What kind of car are you putting it in? I used to have one 10 in my integra, and it sounded decent, I'm guessing because of the hatch.

For a sedan at least a 10" is reccomended.
