Neo, you were almost there, did you get the runners up position?
LOL!!! runner up... if you look in that sense there should be classification for the competition.
Like sedan class and SuV class. Coz due to cabin gain the same system inside a sedan will sound louder in an SUV or vice versa. Depends on the vehicle. :)

So I shouldnt even be in that category.

But my point is, with a score of 130db i didnt want anything.

Its like a taking a 500 hp car and hoping to hit 550 at the dyno. Instead doing like 300.
It was never about winning I wanted to hit 140+ and i failed.

:D
I saw your car there neo, but did not see you there :D

Too bad, you should have asked them about the test cd that they will use for the event. But honestly at your current setup i doubt it will give you 140db coz your box is still tuned low...but if you tuned it high around 40-45Hz you might have hit higher...

Did the sound-off organizers included their rides in the contest? How are their score?

Anyway, still congrats and more power! :D

You are right on the part of my box tuning being low, but this time i had tried to balance it in between deep bass and spl.. We will have another thread to that. I need to get something right and need your input. The 2loud competition might be around the corner. The box tuning is around 40hz. But if i wanted spl i shud i have tried 50 -70 hz range.. but then it will sound crap.. and cant be used a normal daily driven car.

Sound of car with the DD 9515g put out 142db with music. Dont know how much it mite hit with the burp or sweep.

I guess I am not part of this forum!
Not even a single picture of my car was taken by anyone or posted...

Thanks to all the wonderful members for that.... Especially SAM!
I feel the boost.
