All depends on install, I forgot who it was, but I believe someone broke 160 with a DD 9510....

That was Nate Munson with 1 DD9510 and 4 Crossfire 1000ds. It was all in a '78 Honda hatchback(some discontinued model I have never heard of). He hit slightly above 170db. If I ever get to a scanner, I will scan the pics from AS&S magazine.

One thing I can sayis that asking if a set up of equipment will hit a certain DB is kinda...wrong/bad

a correct install can make anything sound loud...I stand by the idea that if you got a decent set of subs and have a little acoustic eng education...you can put up numbers that someone with the same equipment couldnt dream of

HOW BIG (estimate) would the box have to be to knock out 150 with a sigle brahma twelve or 15

I'm guessing 5-7 cubes and lots of power would do it

2 12" ED K's + jbl 600 or 1200 do it?

1 18" Stroker + jbl 1200 do it?

1 12" brahma + jbl 1200 do it?

out of this 4, the stroker would prolly give you the highest number...

I would doubt the Brahma could do it. A brahma is an SQ sub not a SPL sub.

I would go for a XXX or Shocker.

If you have your own mic, make a small setup and record different tones to a CD (i.e. 44 Hz, 35 Hz etc) find the resonant frequency of your car, sound deaden the hell out of the car, tune a 6-8 ft box to that frequency and put an amp such as the RE amp or Better Audio amp on it and Rock and Roll....

XXX is also a sq sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/nono.gif.eca61d170185779e0921b0faa9704973.gif But it happens to be really fukin loud at the same time just like the brahma! I'll bet a brahma could do it. Of course I haven't any proof just my opinion

how loud would 2 brahmas be in 2 1.2 cube sealed boxes with 1100 watts going to each?
