I heard that the RE XXX will go low no doubt but it has no upper end bass(like in lil jon's bia bia)and whet it play it they sounds somewhat muddy if thats true what sub would give me both low as a XXX but the upper bass of another sub?
thats not true, the response of the XXX, like most subs, will stay flat well into the midbass region, way above where you'd be likely to want it to play.
well, if it's anything like the Avalanche, which i'm sure it is, they both used XBL motors... it does NOT perform very well up high. I can't speak directly about the XXX, but the Avalanche rolled off very quick above 50hz or so. granted my box was tuned very low...but the SX was much better up high in the same box.
The enclosure makes a huge difference. small peaky ported enclosures or bandpass, vs. a well designed ported or sealed setup will result in totally different responses.
Doesn't matter which size, enclosure, whatever. Sealed, ported, IB, AP, even the 10" versions of these subs are muddy past 60hz. Not impressed from any of them in that aspect.

agreed. i cross mine at 63hz. any higher and it lacks significantly. if you have a decent set of mid-bass', you'll be fine though.
True. The majority of kick drums on rock albums have their fundamental freq. around 50-60hz, with harmonics sometimes touching 100hz, and the attack happening toward 1-2khz.
