Has anyone had a single icon metered?

Recommended Posts

I know the icon is not a spl sub, but I was wondering if anyone has had a ssa icon 12 (or other size) in a ported box metered? Just kind of curious as to what kind of decibels my icon can put out.

here's the closest you'll find I do believe. Done by thumper on the forum's.

and of course, this is all install dependent.

I like this Video better.....

doors and windows sealed engine off and meter in the exact same spot

with an enclosure tuned at 31hz

the next numbers will be higher...I am now running about 2x the power and adding another 10"

very average for a single 15"..we have a single 15" DD here that hits 148db in a Dodge Neon

and I have a single 12" Alpine Type R that does 143.6db at 34hz but it's not at all

impressive compared to a pair of 10" hitting 139-140 in the 20hz range

if set up right a single 15" could get louder than 139db at 20hz

my single 12" ICON, unbroken in, did a best of 132@40hz in a 2ft^3@34hz net enclosure, single 4" port. dowfired under the rear seat of my silverado with ~1kwrms going to it.

definitely a subwoofer, very capable of getting loud and will sound great doing it!

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:
