WHO HAS A LOUD STEREO?

Joke fail.

 

to each their own.

 

I'll give you an E for effort. Some rep too.

 

Lol. ^

 

in his defense, thats un walled, with 1 8 and 1 amp hitting a 151 which im sure would scare me too.

isnt the rule of thumb something like every 3 dbs is twice as loud? i just remember reading something like that...

 

You need double the cone area or double the power to get a 3db increase. And I believe 10db is perceived to be twice as loud.

 

Correct. 3db is generally accepted as "noticeably" louder, AKA, we humans can hear a noticeable difference in volume. 10db is considered "twice as loud" in our perception.

In reality, volume in DB is not linear hence the (") above.

Uhh mines not as grand as above but I got a 13tw5new powered by an alpine 600v1 with hybrid audio all around powered by a 500v4 Rockford amp with an alpine head I call my one seat the massage chair for the ladies

 

Im running sony xplod speakers. You jelly bitches?

 

I have Rockford Fosgate 0/1 Awg wiring, Rockford Fosgate 1 farad capacitor, 2 10" Kicker L5's, Kicker 1000.1 watt amp, and Kicker 16 gauge speaker wiring

 

Here's mine. Very loud, very clean.

 

^That's a lot of cutting. You're a brave man.

 

I had a CRX with 2 x 10's in High School. It was Loud as hell, but no where near the 161 above. It was around 140 db if i remember correctly.

I just finished putting 1 of the 10's from my CRX in the taco. It might be 10+ years old, but it still works great and sounds amazing in the taco.

 

In my 08 access cab, I had 2 treo te 10's with a rockford power 1500w amp, focal k2 6.5 separates in the doors pushed by a rockford 600.4 amp. I hit 139.8 db at stc, 2 yrs ago, now I have a 2011 dbl cab and all ima do Is put one modest 10 in it.

 

Swag

 

I've heard this system and its rediculous!

 

i have a question that i'm hoping for some serious input with...and i'm hopin people with at least minimal knowledge w/ car audio will help me out.

Issue: I'm debating subs for my reg. cab and this is what is has come down to...
Rockford Fosgate P3 shallow 12" in a custom ported box...
OR... the JL Audio 13" TW-5 in a sealed box with .80 cubic feet.


now obviously the TW-5 will be better compared to the RF in the standard sealed box... but what if the RF p3shallow was in maximum spec'ed ported box vs. the TW-5
reason being is the price will be almost the same either way...

any impute would be greatly appreciated!

 

Holy Crap! This thang shake the shit right out of ya or what?

 

TW5's SQ is better. Dunno how your gonna work out a ported box w/ the P3. it should fit, but you might have some space issues if your taller. The mounting depth for the JL is about an inch shallower than the P3 fyi. p3 w/ a ported box would, however, be louder.

 

I don't even think it will be a close comparison. I think the JL will kick it in the face.
