Jesse 05ss Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Mine does 113db, and I hand built it buy hand in 103 degree weather took 24 hours of hard work. 113db's really ant that much a buddy and me built a system for my echo I use to have it took 2 days to install we had 4 JL 10W6V2 in the trunk 2 caps 5 amps 3 for the subs one for mids and highs and one for tweeters it hit 142.7db's I have seen one 12 hit 149.9 but that was a JL W7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
732 Submariner Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) Nice system! If those are SL7 10's in a ported box you are probably getting more than 113 dbs. You should enter it into a comp and have it tested with a better SPL meter. I doubt a little gay under the seat box is as loud as yours. I doubt the guy with the under seat box has room for 2 amps, a capacitor and a distribution block. He probably has stock speakers in the doors with no amp. as for 113dbs not being loud I'm pretty sure that 120dbs over time causes permanent hearing damage. I bet it sounds awsome driving down the road. Have you accidentally ran over any POS echos lately? It sucks when you want to show your hard work and some people have nothing better to do than just sh!t on it. Atleast some people in this forum appreciate good work when they see it.

cbrsilv15 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 In my 92 tbird, I had a Power Acoustik Area 51 amp, and 2 audiobahn 12's flame series in a sealed box. Hit 143.3 on the second song.... Pretty good for not trying to db compete... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha the person who looks like an ASS is the one who is arguing and trying to say that a little under seat box is better, go to a stereo competition now if you are unsure what that is it is when "a group of people get together and get judged on the quality and performance of a stereo system to see who has the best" and I guarantee a under seat box will not win. A subwoofer will not perform at it's best without the proper airspace. A kicker solo-baric s10l7 requiresper sub. * sealed box volume: 0.66-1.0 cubic feet * ported box volume: 1.25-2.25 cu. ft.

IN MY PROFESSIONAL opinion, sealed boxes are better for trucks because ported boxes push WAY too much air in the cab and distort very badly. YES if ur gonna put as much dynamat as i did and change the windows to plexi and make the cab walls stronger a ported custom box is the way to go but if ur gonna argue saying under seat boxes arent good then ur WAAAAAAAAY wrong. go to customsounds.com and look at our installs. my boat is the mastercraft x with all the alpine (paid for by apline for show). 99% of our custom builds are sealed.

SuperStock Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 When I decide to put this post up, I just wanted to show everybody what an 18 year old kid could build and yes I payed for all of it. There are SOME people who just need to grow up. I know I don not have the best system and I never said I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
