15's DON'T have bad SQ. I dare you to tell that to people that run IDMax, Adire Brahma/Tempest/Tumult, Elemental K/O/A flat cones, Phase Linear Aliante SI and LTD, Ascendant Audio Avalanche, PPI Pro, JBL GTi, Orion H2, JL 15w3, Resonant Engineering SX/XXX. Size has almost nothing to do with SQ. It's all in the install.
And as for me, the best I've seen is a 138 on a calibrated AC mic at 45 hertz. Single Digital Designs 9515d, single Lanzar Opti1000D ran @ 1 ohm, ported box tuned to 32 hertz. No electrical mods done. That's not bad for such a low tuned box.

According to my extensive research the flame q 12's spit the same rms values as the memphis 15 and at a measured 600 watts from each amp I'd say the setup has the same beef. BTW the audiobahn 15 has an option for 1300 rms or 2000 rms for slighty cheaper than the memphis. and the sony amps are stable for 1100 rms at 1 ohm. It could be loaded like that but even with a 1.5 farad cap the lights dim.

They don't have bad sound quality if you have they are good quality with lightweight cones and lots of power, or rather the appropriate design power.

Too much bass for me was when I rode in my friend's cousins Grand Prix GTP with 2 square Solo Baric subs and an 800w??? Rockford Amp. Felt like the entire car was falling apart :shocked:

a guy i knew at a local stereo shop here had a 93 volvo 240 wagon, with two TruBass 10"s on a 1200 watt Diamond Audio in slotted boxes. I think it is the loudest stereo I have heard so far.

There is a guy who lives in my home town who had a 90some Blazer with 6 or 8 12's I think and 4 amps. My friend was in there with him and he didn't even have it turned up all the way and it made it hard for him to breathe. So much pressure that is pushes down on your chest...nuts!
Another person I know had 2 Kenwood Twisters I think and blew the sunroof out of his Sunfire.
