I've tested the RE 15" MT sub. So far, it can play 20Hz note all the way to 3Khz. It's almost like a full range speaker.
The frequency range of 25Hz - 80Hz is very loud. However, 40Hz-45Hz seem to be the "peak" frequency. It shook the floor the most. Therefore, a vented box with ports tuned between 35Hz - 40Hz will give very high SPL.
Depending on who you ask, almost everyone will give you different answer. It is almost impossible to get a frequency response answer.
I know from my testing, it can hit 25Hz easily and go as high as 3Khz. Try and find a sub that can do that.

maybe no one ever used a diamond audio amp here...can't give an opinion if you never used it...read reviews and do some research...and post in your own thread.

Yes it can. If the songs contain 35Hz - 45Hz bass, it'll sound very loud, almost 2x more SPL than my 18" SQ sub. With 200w rms of power and open free air, it was shaking the floor.

If your amp is Zapco C2K 9.0, then one of 2 things will happen. You will either go deaf or crack your car windows. I've seen how loud 1 15" MT can get, with 2, it'll be too loud for anyone to bare.
However, if you have large enough trunk space and tuned the ports to the frequency I mentioned above, you will get one heck of loud bass! I don't know what other subs will come close.
I forgot to tell you about the sub, the MT, even in open air, does not move when you push the cone. It is like a solid rock, hardly moves at all.

Very characteristic of an SPL sub. Gives a big peak in a ported or small sealed box.
