[QUOTE="Sean Zurbrick, post: 145678, member: 208"] Re: Thoughts on Yamaha dxs18 sub I've done several years with a few different band pass subs in the past. Usually the trade-off is high output with a smaller box at the expense of the "one not wonder" sound. Given that the Yamaha's are large and heavy, I don't really see an any advantages over something like the PRX718XLF, which is what I'm using currently along with a pair of RCF 745A tops. I can attest the PRX boxes get low, although the SPL spec is a bit optimistic, especially if you're tuning them to go low. Yamaha has always been big on the -10dB spec, which I find relatively worthless. I also don't see a -3 spec anywhere nor a graph showing the output. That leads me to guess the -3 spec is somewhere around 40 or even 45 Hz, which is fine, but also why they don't tell you the spec. [/QUOTE]
