where are you guys putting the mic anyway? Some of these scores seem a little BS. I hit 155's with my celica on the dash...but if you move the mic around to different spots.

Chucho, 159 with 2 10's and not that much power, I call bull****.
GT2GT4 , do you have anything to back that up...I haven't seen any impressive scores out of the W7's for the most part.

So where did you guys have the mics?

dude have u heard of boxes, do u know what vented boxes are?? they create a ton of volume. and the frequences that the subs are hitting at change the pressure. Higher frequences have higher pressure.

On the side, the guy from TOS, which is the local car audio place, put the mic at the front of the car by the front window. and thats w/ all the windows up except for my window that had the wire going through it. the Kicker kx600.1 is running 600 watts RMS each at 2OHMS and they put u in class by 4ohms stereo. just letting you know.

2001 Highest Class 1 score in SPLME History
2001 2 time SPLME state champ Class 1/Class 2
2001 3rd Place Massachusetts IDBL State Championship, STK 161-260

O yeah, and im well aware what vented boxs are, I run a 8 cubic foot box with 150 sq inches of port.

Higher frequencies don't have higher pressure, it is however easier to produce a higher frequency. I hit most of my scores at 67hz for that reason.

I hit a 150.1 in the very front of the car, and I had the seats up in the back, so I'm not sure how much sound is coming from the hatch, anyways Do not ever go to a Car Audio Connection competition, they like to use their company cars in the competition. I was beat by their protege project by 150.2 Db, and same throughout all classes, company cars won...

I still bon't know why they didn't mike the subs, cuz that's what they do in most comps, in this one they did it in the lowest part of the front of the car

I wish I had someone else with some beat around here to compare mine too, but it hits as loud as I ever need it to:

2 12" L7 Kicker Solobaric subs in a custom box
2 MTX 1501D mono-block amps @ 1500 watts each

Anyone have any idea how much that'll reach?

I dont know but 2 12" Kicker comps in Dual Chamber Box, 1 12" Kicker Comp in a Single Chamber, and 2 12" MTX thunder 4500's. The kickers running 280RMS, and The MTX at 200rms. I made raddles. I would say 140-155 Range, with the windows Up the Sound preesure would hurt your ears. I threw together the whole system for under 300$ just proving you dont gotta break your pocket.

Not so Much Ghetto, but keep'n it cheap and REAL, not everyone can throw together a high dollar system, For 16 and Having the loudest system out of anyone for the cheapest is cool.

are you sure about the 500 farad cap? I think that would take up the whole bed of a dakota. maybe 5 farad?

It sounded great, Mixing subs is always a Good Idea because there is no one sub on the market that can hit every note. The Kickers could slam the lows, while the Mtx would hit most of the highs. I was running Prefabbed Box's, Crappy Amps and Still had the loudest system out of anyone.

With my setup i would guess i could get pretty high dB ratings....like maybe 140-ish, but i built my system more for getting great sound quality and no distortion at all.
