The Big Oki is using some of those in a bandpass and is in the 150dB+ club, with music.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/omg.gif.05aa02c3095d6ce9338996654eca0863.gif

where are you getting the reviews from? I'd guess theyre mostly from sites like the ones listed above. Don't pay attention to 95% of those reviews... the people who write them are useless.

I cant believe I watched both of those... but it doesnt lead to me to believe that some guy with a Sony T-shirt and Sony sticker on his car is going around doing 160db with a few sony woofers. I never even saw the subs.

It's going to take some more serious proof for me to believe that. A guy running around slapping butts and patting bald people on the head doesn't exactly win me over //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

they're not bad... they can get loud yes... but SQ is not well at all... for $200 you could've picked up an RE SE sub and sounded wayyy better... i got mine for $165 shipped i think... it was either $165 or $185 but i love it... but if you are just wanting some loud bass then u'll prolly like them in a good box with a good amp
