Maybe our SPL expectations are different.
You're right, maybe our SPL expectations are different. But that's not what I'm talking about here. I'm talking about my EP800 not being able to play as loud as my JBL PB12 did. And my analogy stems from people who are used to high SPL subs buying an Axiom sub that can't match those SPL levels and feeling something must be lacking. Only I'm starting to get the impression the older Axiom subs can reach those insane SPL levels, which makes me wonder why my EP800, as well as a lot of other members on this board with newer Axiom subs, can't reach the same SPL levels as the older one's could?
Are there any graphs I wonder that show the max SPL of say an older version EP500 or EP600 compared to one of the EP500's or EP800's that have the new amp installed in it? That would be interesting to find out imo, if they are the same or not.
