so i was bored today and was looking around a came across this sub a soundstrem xxx 18 inch ill post the link but it says 10000 watts rms is that true i mean seriously. take a look. http://www.woofersetc.com/p7740/XXX18--Soundstream-18"-XXX-Subwoofer.htm

they've been around for a good 2yrs that i know of at least.

They can handle a good 4-6kw for daily

i might of came across it awhile back but i usually dont look at soundstream i dont want them i just wanted to know if the 10000 watts rms was true

im 100% sure that it can do 10k competing.

I haven't seen the 18's but I just installed 2 15's in my car yesterday. I have alot of tweaking to do but my initial thoughts are my ears hurt. I only have 2200w to each for daily but they aren't moving to much but seems loud without turning the volume up. I had a very hard time moving the cone at all with my bare hand. The pain in my back today says they are beastly. After I get them broken in and do some tests I'll make up a review of how they perform so far so good tho.

you'll be lucky to ever get them moving a lot.

They expect a large amount of power so unless your box is extremely large or u are running 10kw+, the suspension is gonna stay stiff for a long time.

Would you say I should give up on "breaking them in"? The best I will be giving them is 3000wrms (and some change maybe) on burps. Oh and they are in a 6 cubes net for now, in a few months I'll be putting them in 9 cubes net.

you should start with the largest box possible then start shrinking it until u dont gain any more. Same way with your port too in terms of length.

There's your proof or power right there. a single 18 and 15,000 watts.

It took on an additional 5,000rms, can you say ridiculous. I was always interested in Soundstream Subs especially the Tarantula series but always picked Kicker CVX's over them(not saying I made the best decision since I never heard any of Soundstreams subs), just wondering how good are Soundstream subs.

my new setup is going to be 2 soundstream xxx-18's and 2 xxx-6500d's. i've seen these things handle an atomic 7000.1 daily no problem.

xxx subs are great
