What a bunch of toolbag douches. That **** looks good and its functional. Is it ******* perfect? Of course not. He can retain use of his tops and I bet it hits hard enough to make you go deaf. What else could any average person desire?

Most people just hear someone with a system and go out and buy stuff without even knowing what they're buying. That or they have a shop install everything which is how most high school kids are. And about the single 15" on 1krms flexing the windshield, which Fi sub did you go with and what're the box dimensions?

To OP, I do think that setup is very clean looking and wouldn't change a thing, I just questioned your original numbers but you admitted it was a typo, it happens.

Clean setup! How do you build an amp rack like that and hide the wires?

Need more info to see how legit that really is though. Didn't say where the meter was located and what type was used so to me that's kind of skeptical.

Yes, I know of them I just wasn't sure if it was just some guy with a sticker on it or not. The guys reaction at the end made him sound like it wasn't a big accomplishment, though it is. But I didn't check into the team link and see it was legit until you posted the link. But that's not something the average person can pull off, it takes a lot of knowledge and skill to do a build like that.

That is quite ordinary depending on what groups of people you hang out with...

Just like 10sec cars are ordinary on this site but out of the ordinary for most...

It's all in perspective

No way are 10 sec cars ordinary, from no perspective. Thats like looking out your window and seeing rain and saying bad weather today is ordinary. Nope, it sure is NOT.

So... if you live in say a rain forest and every day it's rainy you couldn't say it was ordinary?

I don't think you understand what your trying to say...

Guys stereo installs have alot of factors. Its about vehicle acoustics, setup and tuning hertz for ur paticular vehicle. I had a JL Audio 13w7 in my 99 camaro with a 1000/1 il amp and consistently hit 149.8 to 150.5 db. Its all how u set it up.
