This was before it got cold but figured id throw up some pics for brickloaf and a few other stl area stereo guys.

My buddy waiting for his results


Jeep Liberty running 4 dd (hit 147db if I remember right)











Kicker warhouse amp pictures (vehicle competed in the extreme unlimited class and posted up 158db I believe) its one of the audio shops from Washington missouri and I believe it had 12 kinetic batteries tucked in there. In this soundoff it got beat by the owners of Mach1 audio with a 3rd order setup that featured 2 12 inch DD subs each being burped at 3000 watts a piece in an 80s Volvo wagon (sorry no real pics of it) Will try to get some next time im down there. It uses 3 foot wide pvc piping for the 3rd order setup.

 

is midwest spl outlaw or legal?

 

you know to be honest as I didnt compete in this soundoff im unsure. I honestly havent competed since around 97

 

lol ya usaci and dbdrag are the big ones... midwest, meca ect are smaller

 

I'm not much of a Honda guy but that green one is nasty... Do u remember what he was running?

 

Most of the people there were running kickers. There were very few JLs 1 car with sonys (lol did 131db)

But I think the green crx was around 150db or so. They didnt keep the vehicle open long enough to get a much of a look at to what setup he was using though.

 

its insane the amount of db people can push out

 

heres a vid of that one guy with the 8"... he replaced the RE with a SSA 8

Ive heard about sundown but honestly never heard one or even seen one in person.

 

damn skeet 68hz is high as ****

must be all box design cause the amp didnt look to be that high wattage...maybe it was just me though.

 

amp is the sundown 1200w rms

his highs amps are tru... supposed to be clean but IMO they look tacky. It is all box/crx both the re and ssa did those high numbers at 68ish

 

I looked up the pricing of the sundown 1500 not too bad. Thatd be enough for 2 DD 8's and Sundowns site has the 8 as discontinued.

 

Is it true that sub up port back is the way to go for spl?

 

no every vehicle is different... i didn't show pics of the crx i posted but he has both boxes in different places bolted down with lines and measurements on his mdf floor.

Basically a true competitor wastes tons of time and money testing. i bet if he moved that 8" box 2 in to the right it would drop his score considerably. for all daily vehicles there's general ideas of what you should and shouldn't do and the differences aren't big enough to be noticeable on to a human ear. in SPL theres no real guideline on what is best... you just get a car start from scratch and test test test all the way

 

i'd be kinda curious to see how mine would compete in a SQL competition.

i know i'd not do so well on the SPL, as I'm not a bass blurb kinda guy and didn't aim my system for the creation of massive pressure. lol

as for that civic....looks like a lighter variation of honda's classic clover metallic green. was probably honda's 2nd best color of all time.
