and there is a big big difference between 130 and 135.try to make a 5 db increase in your system without changing anything..using a meter like that is sorta like using one of those dash mount performance units to see what your 1/4 mile times are...

incorrect its just as terry said. if you dont belive me pm me your number and we will both call the owner of american bass. he lives about 45 mins away and hes a cool guy. 135 on that meter is more like a 130. which ive done a 133 with a single diamond audio d3 and a xtant 125.1

The SX in the correct box would destroy those subs. its that simple.

^ Yup it's an easy mistake as both have the same letters but flipped around... I was even thinking of the XD when I first saw the thread, but then realized which we were talking about and that's why I said that a 135 MAY be possible, but I'd really wanna see it as Terry said... For an entry level sub the dx is very good, but overall can't really be compared with an RE SX as they are 2 completely different class of subs.

no xd is right behind the vfl, the xo and dx may as well both be the entry level. id sell dx 12's all day long for less than 100 bucks. they arent that good. they are basically the same as a lot of entry level subs out there.

135 seems possible on a single DX (unsure of 300watts) but it would really depend on a lot of different things, the biggest of those would obviously be the enclosure and vehicle used along with how well it was sealed... One thing you have to realize is that one enclosure and sub will perform differently in every vehicle... To take a sub and box out of lets say a Chevy blazer and stick it in the trunk or back seat of a Honda Civic, you'll get completely different scores on a TL.

its not the entry level .dx is right behind the vfl series.the xo series sub is the entry level then xd followed by the dx & the vfl

smoker the guy pulled 145.1 db's on a 12 aq sub.the guy is really good at comps

the dx sub from american bass is a cheap sub that is an entry level design and i would love to see someone pull a 135 on the tl with a single 10 and 300 watts........the sx15 is a much better sub

Or, just throw all the subs you have in the trunk :)
