Man these subs are insane. I put 2 of them in a ported box giving each one .2 cubic feet and these things hit 190db on a daily basis. They are constantly blowing out the windows in my ford excursion.

My favorites are those newbies who try to guess their SPL and blow it way, way, way high over anything feasible...
