Why did you choose to go with 16 8's versus something like 2 18" FI BTLs?

Bc nobody around here runs 8's and they say 8's cant get loud or low. Im gona prove them wrong, and i think it looks cooler with more subs moving at one time.

Eh, when you have 16 subs in a gigantic ported box I think your goal is pure SPL anyway lol
