But with just one of them? That's one hell of a feat.

 

[Str8Up 10+ year member]

WTF!!???

Did you see their other wins? They get over 170 on the regular. Team 20Hz hit 175.

WTH...

Shouldn't someone ty and nail them with false adveretising? I believe that Pioneer holds the world record with its TS-W5000SPL subs, and they had nine of them, and the record I believe was 173.3 dB. And no one driver will hit that much, unless they had the mic in the enclosure, and that is still ify, there aint enough surface area on 1 single 15 inch sub to hit 170 + dB.

There is the article.
