It's loud, but not as loud as a 300
lb sub should be.

Are you sure you heard it driven with enough power? I just reread the
specifications on this thing and it says 6,000 watts RMS, 12,000 watts
peak. The amount of current required to achieve this kind of wattage (ON A
CONTINUOUS BASIS!) would be massive. A couple of 1500 watt class D amps
just wouldn't cut it. Sure, SPL vehicles routinely spit-out this much
power, but it is always for very brief bursts. I have to imagine that if
you COULD find an amp or amps to provide this much power (and then a way
to supply these amps with a CONTINUOUS supply of the 1000's of amperes
needed), it probably would be pretty damn impressive!

But, of course, what I just said really defines the problem with a
subwoofer like this. It is certainly a technological marvel, but it seems
nearly impossible to fully utilize it in an autosound environment.

Considering that the best bass sound ever produced on this planet were done
with engineering which is the exact opposite of what's being discussed here,
why would anyone even want to pursue this?
