I'm an 18 man as you all can see. I am curious as to know what would be the all around 18 in your honest opinion is a daily driver pounder for the money? Right now I'm running 4 of the RE SX 18's and I can't breath in the truck at a volume of 20 on the dial. Each sub is getting around 1500 watts when its burp time.

Ain't that the woofers that you get six in a box that would normally house one woofer from other companies.

You know, my RE MTs are really taking a beating on a regular basis -- they have impressed me. I play them more on music than on burps for demo purposes with no problems at over 3kw each.

Jacob, can you bring ^that^ with you if you attend our Michael Mueller dinner on Feb 1st?

Are those 18" Cacti in the pic above? Nice!

I was going to say Fi or Nick's new Death Penalty's for 18s of choice.
