I for one believe that a fast sub is not reproducing deep bass. The very thing that makes deep bass deep is the long wavelength. I am not saying a small sub can't make deep bass. It just takes much more power and further cone movement than a large sub. The further cone movement negates the quickness of the small sub because a small sub must move in and out so much further than a large woofer, it is just as slow.
Sub output: Is it the woofer size or the rated RMS
In any subwoofer output, how important is the Watt output versus the woofer size? I have been reading reviews on some subs such as Earthquake, Sunfire and JL audio. The Earthquakes (15" woofers; ~650W) have reportedly more "slam" than the Sunfire (1000W-1500W, 12" woofer), or the 650W-750W SVS, or even the fathoms.
And each of these are box subs.
Or is it really about the proprietary technology unique to every sub?
In other words, what really influences a sub's output for all the wonderful things we want in a great sub?
