"Lightning Audio" and "best" should never be used in the same sentence, neither should "sub" and "walmart". Save up some more money so you can buy something that won't self destruct within a week.

The Storm series are the best lightning audio subs.
and no, they are not crap. a friend of mine was able to do about 145db at 30hz on the headrest. i'll have to confirm the numbers, but they are not your ordinary lighting audio bolt series

yup. those kind of LA subs. of course they were 2 15" in a wall.

One sub doesnt qualify a company as good. Im doubting 145@30Hz. That is well below the resonant frequincy of most vehicles. and since you said it is only 2 15's in a wall. i doubt if RE's MT's could do that. 2 DD 9917's may be able to. if thoes woofers are as good as DD9917's SPL wise sign me up for 2. im looking to turn an old beater into an SPL vehicle just for fun to throw extra cash into. since my mom wont let me build a track car....my dad though it a great idea...we should do it anyway.
back on subject, they look good. but nothing like what could produce 145dB at 30Hz even in a extremely overpowered burp and taken with the sensitive old mics.

This was done at a Meca show so it's legit. It's not the typical best buy out in the parking lot show. lol.
Bigbassman will vouche for him. if anyone knows biggbassman, you'll know he's a extremist. no BSing around him :D
