The hardest hitting sub ive heard was a Digital Designs 15". It was in the trunk of a brand new pontiac bonnieville. One of the loudest systems I have heard and it was only one sub. Not sure on the model or price though.

The alpine type-X sub hasnet really been given a calling yet, , but alpine calls it a SPL sub, , and i can vouch for that.   Ever seen a body flex so much you needed to get the panel pushed back in by a body shop?? , , Lol  ya, no joke, , my ex-co installer has a X-12 to a mrd-m1000 in a big 1.3 cube box,, , man, , his truck is demolished now, , his steering column moves up and down a inch, , he had to make a floating set up to keep his deck from skipping.    but for the money, , i think theres louder.

i definitely think l7's or mtx 9500's . the 9500's you can get off ebay for 350-400 each, get some 12's, thats all you'll probably need with a real good amp.

Yeah the eclipse 8100 and 9100 serries (aluminum and titanium) are exceptionally loud due to thier large excursion but are built more for SQ and the price reflects that, if you want lots of noise go with 6 W O's or Sony's or something.  There is no replacement for diplacement.

Anybody heard the 8500 mtx's ? Just wondering how hard they pound compared to the 9500's?

What about the HX2 Fosgates? I heard they pound pretty hard.

boom, boom, boom boom....
