[QUOTE="hojna15, post: 2568602, member: 570046"] Ok so i understand that to hit high on the spl scores it takes 3 things the right kind of sub, the box built correctly, and the right kind of amp. For the subs, i know that you'd like to have a higher sensitivity rating, because that translates into how well the subwoofer can transfer the power into sound. but that doesnt mean everything, i know that you also have to supply enough power to the sub so that it can still be louder at a higher volume. But, I found in comparing the JBL P1224, the Kicker 06S12L7, and the Alpine Type R, that the jbl and the kicker has a higher sensitivity rating than the type R. So what i was wondering is that between these three subs which is the greater for spl, and if the type R is still the champ out of them, why is it better with such lower specs compared to the other two. The reason Im asking this is because out of these three models, im going to put the better model in my car for my final system, also they would be ran off of one or two Kenwood 9152D amplifiers [/QUOTE]
