    And to any other RE apologists, this is the very essence of why no one uses their stuff in the SPL lanes. the Entry level DD subs can give them a solid run at a fraction of the price.

    Then you factor in the cost of an SX, XXX, or MT and I garuntee I can go buy a Memphis mojo (which costs less than all of those), or an Incriminator Death Penalty, or a DD9512, or a Rocford T2, and own you on any mic in any position.
    I got my blown XXX 12 for $100 and spent $250 total getting it reconed to an 18''. It really isn't an SPL sub.

    The 141.2 was with a first gen RE SE, reconed with a XXX coil.

    136.8 is not too hot at all. I ain't ragging on you, I just know you have a lot more left out of that system.

    You saying a RF t2, 9512, mojo and DP all blow away sx, xxx, and Mts is a very relative statement.

    Some guy at one of your meet and greets had a 15'' mojo, ported off 1.5kw, in his scion tc. one of your installs. I put up a solid 1db more than him, at a lower hz, with a single RE SE 12, on less than 600rms. (In my integra)

    Can you argue with that one?

    I am not trying to push any buttons, I just want to debate with you.

    That was more directed towards Scott.

    What amp did you have on them? What size box you running? Sealed? Ported?

    It really isn't that relative of a statement. If I took a sub, and put it in a properly built and tuned box with a goal of achieving a high spl. I know for a fact i wouldn't be picking anything from RE's lineup. in fact the only sub I might consider even remotely is the early 2000's MT and even then, it would be way way way down the list. Quite frankly when Adire went out of business is the day RE became completely irrelevant. I don't care who is makeing them now, or who is now running the company it's not the same quality product.

    As for the car you mentioned, I know that car (it was done before I was brought down to Ga to work here) and you aren't proving me wrong in my statement. Quite frankly I don't want to get into any further, b/c I wasn't the employed here when it was built.

    Also, who ever it was that said Sundown is a SQPL sub, you couldn't be more wrong. There is absoluyely nothing high quality or even sound quality related about Sundown. They are a lowpriced, mid level internet brand, much like a litany of other companies out there.
