    Umm, I'm willing to bet R Rated has 10k+ in his system, but he is also using very high end gear.

    For comparison though. I had:
    2 RE XXX 15's 860 shipped
    1 US Amps DE-3000 ~1500 retail at the time
    Eclispe AV8533 head unit 2300
    Front speakers A/D/S ~600 if I remember correcly
    Kenwood KAC-??? amps for the front >200

    Total: ~5300


    Far less than 10k and it was MUCH louder, and MUCH cleaner than yours will be.

    You can also cut out the 2300 head unit because you can get an equal signal to the amps with a $300 head unit.

    so thats down to ~3k worth

    For the price of those MOFO 10, you could have gotten an couple of DD 3510's that would have been louder and cleaner for nearly the same price.

    You are a moron. I hit 142db back in the day with one Lanzar DC 12 in a transmission line box and a Kicker amp in my CRX, and I bet that I didn't have as much in it as you have in your Power Craptastic equipment. And your last post barely even looked like English, but did you actually say that JL Audio is crap?! Bahahahaha! You are dumber than a box of sh!t.

    Cleveland TN....are you F U C K I N G Serious. I live about 30 minutes from there, and I know of only a couple car up there that are even worth a second look. Most of the DumbA$$es there think that their crap is the best.

    I do know that there is not one good stereo shop in Cleveland, TN, and ever since Tweeter/HiFi Buys closed the doors, all the Cleveland kids, have to resort to the cheesey shop or Wal-Mart, Best Buy or Circuit City (Non of which have a clue how to properly install (maybe a couple installers) and non do custom work.

    DUDE !!! Cleveland TN is not what I would use to set the standards.
    You are Sofa King Retarded.

    Have a nice day !!!

    WOW...... I go to wholesale places and PA is so cheap, even at retail prices. And wtf is a bass driver? You mean line driver?
    Let me fill you in on something... This is IA. If you don't know what you are talking about then your best bet is to not say anything. You will dig yourself a hole you can't get out of.
    Second of all, stay in school. You obviously need to learn grammer all over again.
    142db's? Are you kidding me? I worked in 3 different shops and 135-high 140's is average for any piece together system. I could hit harder with a water logged box with better equipment than PA. For the money you spent you should take banginjimmys advice and step it up. First, return the garbage you purchased.

    Public school has failed this kid. That's also why he is using Power Acoustic equipment.

    OK the 300zx convertible has the main area of the car where the driver and passenger sit. Behind both seats is a steel wall. Then behind that steel wall is an 18 gallon gas tank along with another steel wall and then a trunk. The "cabin" or whatever you want to call it is fully sealed off from the trunk. Bass travels through the car but the volume and whatnot it can be heard is just low. A buddy of mine had the same system I had except it was in an open truck rather than concealed toy. On the outside it had the image of a loud ass system, and the sound of a loud sound system. But inside ya it was loud, just not as loud as it could have been in another car.

    When I had the lifted white Z71 I had the same type R setup it it and it was 2x as loud. Same box and everything.

    So ya no doubt it was "loud" But with how many watts I had running to it, it should have been louder. Someone with maybe 400 watts as opposed to my 850 watts would have been a good "match".
