Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 1407 Registered: Feb-06 | the new xxx if u want a great ql cobination but ur gonna need tons of power ofr the new xx at leats like 2500 rms, because of their structure they need tons of power to get loud, but yeah the xxx its very underated on the rms , but if your going for more boomby bass and less depth go with the massive audio dmx and get a massive audio 1500.1 my friend from the shop its pullin 151.4 at the windshield |
Bronze Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 33 Registered: Mar-06 | You will want to pll more than 1500 rms on it though. Go with an IA 20.1 or Massive P3000.1. Massive did make a few in DVC 2 ohm as well. XXX willbe lil cleaner but the Massive is bad to the bone. |

Silver Member Username: Atllefty12Pinellas, Fla. Post Number: 149 Registered: Jul-06 | I really cant decide, I'm torn between the RE XXX, S.I. MAG, Massive Audio DMX and the Treo SSX... All in 15" sizes. Any suggestions? |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 1409 Registered: Feb-06 | wat if u can get some atomics apocalypsis series??? ull have pretty much same sq from the xxx and lot more spl if u get the apx and because they are so efficient with 1.5k rms ull be fine |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 1421 Registered: Feb-06 | theres an apolapypsis `5 inch on ebay right now u can get it for 170 and its gonna be comparable to those subwoofers in spl http://cgi.ebay.com/Atomic-Apocolypse-15-SPL-Competition-Subwoofer-d2-ohm_W0QQit emZ250012489852QQihZ015QQcategoryZ18804QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

That is less than half the output he should get with the Massive DMX. Also, the DMX is about 1/4th the price of the RE XXX. That is if you get it directly from RE. Also, if you are looking to pay the price for a new RE XXX, why not just buy a SS XXX? That will cost you way less than the 06 Re XXX, and get just as loud! It is an amazing SPL sub. |
Bronze Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 37 Registered: Mar-06 | I didnt think of that Ben. The SS XXX would be pretty bad too. But its for straight SPL though. |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 1424 Registered: Feb-06 | hey so wat u mean its that with the dmx ull be hittin around 160 with a single sub??? i dont think so, the most a single 15 inch dmx cam do that i had watched its 156.sometin with a single 15 inch with 3k rms to it |
Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 123 Registered: Feb-06 | What? Who said he would be hitting 160dbs with any sub? |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Chicago, Ill Us Post Number: 1427 Registered: Feb-06 | u say it, or im wrong Well that guy was hitting 148dbs with that sub. That is less than half the output he should get with the Massive DMX. |

Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 126 Registered: Feb-06 | Every 3 db's is twice the output. Every 10 db will sound twice as loud to the human ear. So he would need to hit over 151 db's with the dmx to get over twice the output. So I believe everything I said was true. |
