Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 1720 Registered: Sep-05 | its all subjective, seeing Pioneer holds the world record, something like a 180db |

Bronze Member Username: Jeffless600Post Number: 53 Registered: Feb-06 | I find it intriguing that ALOT of subs can hit 130-150dbs but 180 is an unheard of record. |

Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 229 Registered: Feb-06 | my guess would be a solo x 12. or maybe a digital designs 9912. |

Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 230 Registered: Feb-06 | on their website i think stereo integrity got like 156 dB with one 12. |

He has 13 pioneer 12" subs and 52 amps in his extreme car. He did 179.7dB! (pioneer sponsors him) As for highest SPL ever recorded on the termlab...Matt Sibley did 182.0dB in super port-wars (mic in the port). |

|
Bronze Member Username: Rustysurfer916Post Number: 14 Registered: Mar-06 | whats a fully powered 12 inch soloX hit? would it be the loudest? |

Silver Member Username: Goose5714Post Number: 398 Registered: Feb-06 | Polo you are insane....mags are better pretty sweet....i think they are better than all re's old stuff...except mybe the mt...and maybe the new xxx. |
|
Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 238 Registered: Feb-06 | can you give me a link to see the shocker sigs, can't find a website about them. |
|
Silver Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 519 Registered: Jan-06 | Josh if you look at the two different subs you will notice the basket is almost identicle except for one less magnet on the SI and a different shaped back plate. The RE sub is built much better than the SI, get a load of that dust cap, lol. Polo. |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Usa Post Number: 1446 Registered: Jan-05 | http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1430&st=0 Here are some that i could find, the first two are of a shocker3, which is one step below the sig, they use the same magnet and basket structer but the sig has a longer vc. the last link is the a sig12 comapered to a rfl, and then a little ways down is a shocker xtreme which is 3 steps below a sig. |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Usa Post Number: 1447 Registered: Jan-05 | make sure you check out all the pages of the last link, a lot of nice sub comparison pics, and i think theres a vid of a sig on ROE. |

Bronze Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 44 Registered: Feb-06 | About how much does the sig cost? and how do they compare to the REs? they look sweet. I dont see many people on here mention the RFLs, are they any good? |

Silver Member Username: MixmastaspigCanada, Canada Canada Post Number: 499 Registered: Sep-05 | Hey Chauncy what price range are those OZ at? I check em out 4000rms is quite a bit for a 12"...lol |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Usa Post Number: 1454 Registered: Jan-05 | well you have to look around online to find a sig, since there not made anymore, but i've seen them go for around 300-400bucks, my friend got 2 10's for $450, so it all depends who you get them from, the sig is like the RE mt, its made for spl its like 2500wrms, and can take anything you can throw at it for burps(i have heard of ppl giving them 4000watts+ without a problem) the rfl is a pos there are a lot better spl subs than it, the shocker xtreme, which is the sub in the bottom pic, is compareable to the RE sx, it can just handle more power, and all shocker subs use tc sounds motor. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 2501 Registered: Mar-04 | Being loud all depends on the vehicle and install. In one instance, a DD 95/9912 will be a full dB louder than and RE MT (drop in). Others the MT will be louder. Still others, AudioQue HD's...Shocker Sigs...SoloX...Pioneer...etc. It all depends on how your vehicle/box loads. oh and by the way...156dB w/ 1 12" SI Mag(on TL)...BS! |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Usa Post Number: 1458 Registered: Jan-05 | ^agree, it depends a lot on box and car more than anything. and i also agree that one 12 mag could not of hit 156, sh1t i've only ever heard of a 18inch sig, in a ss box and 2000watts only hit 158, so the only way the mag would hit that high of number would be in a "one note wonder" box and a SH!T load of power. |
