absolutely. with my own equipment I have seen an average of .5 gain with temps below freezing. lol, the fusion van, had a portable air conditioner piping cold air through duct work keeping interior at a cozy 50 degrees or so before making the run.

oh some guy in a 1/2 bagged cougar said his sh*t was the loudest in town and he was running in the 1800+ rms class at a show here in town. He hit like 145 on the meter. My buddy pulls up to the meter in a lifted Cherokee w/3 CVX 12s and a 1500.1 kicker and hits 149.2. I was laughing at the guy(mainly because he only had the front of his car bagged)what a douche

in the port is probably what hit 190. no ones anywhere near that now.

04-22-2008 03:56 PM

possom

while were talking about high numbers and ports^^^^, i wonder what scott and alan hit in the port or in some other sweet spot in there vehicles.

guy at my local audio shop said he saw one jl 10 w 3 doing 162dbz at show. in a small sealed box. i was just like wow.

in the port

*In theory only since I've never heard of this being done*
I'd guess that both temperature and atmosphere pressure would only be relevant for air density. ... and that SPL meters would measure the difference between peaks and lows and therefore not be much affected by ambient air pressure. What would be strongly affected would be tuning since the weight of the air at various densities would affect port calculations. ... and of course a change in tuning would either increase or decrease SPL depending on how well it matched the tone being played.

... allowing for possibilities like a cab full of either CO2 or Helium could result in making smaller boxes yield good results. No idea which way you'd need to go to do that.

*open for any input on that*

haha 180db. but that pressurizing above ~13 psi, that would hypothetically give maybe like a 3-5db gain?

04-22-2008 02:03 PM

ndstrctbl

my friend thought that the sensitivity rating equaled the Decibel output...so his 2 subs could hit 180. lol

i have heard shat stories like these way to many times..

hey i remember that vid. no clue on how to find it though.

04-15-2008 03:11 AM

sully72482

lol, i think it's been done. At least, there's a specific rule that forbids it, which usually means that someone tried it!

Hmm...

hmmm what if the cab was filled with helium or perhaps xenon?

or if the temperature was raised or lowered?

i think we might have a new scientifc branch of bass racin'

Psh, my brother said his friend hit 200 dbzzzz with two Cadence 12s in a ext. cab s-dime. At which point I came to the decision to tell him he knows nothing.

04-15-2008 01:28 AM

pfft. 190 is cake! pyle 90,000 watt amp & a xplode 99,999 12"= 220db @ 22hz all day!

04-15-2008 01:23 AM

eagle12s

30,000? the last van i saw had 94,000w and from what ive read on this and other forums there have been cars built with ~200,00w and not reached 190db

Is there even a meter accurate to the 190s?

03-25-2008 10:38 PM

-12+VoLt=ShOcKeR

Phhhhh guy from work said he did 240 dbzz with 2 ma audio 15's and ma audio 4000 watt amp, in the trunk of a 99 caddie..... so he got this guy beat by double...

03-25-2008 10:37 PM

BiggBoy

so guy said he did it its on you tube but i cant find it
