109 you sure? my componets are louder than that lol. I mean 109db's isn't much. were you the only one competing? I'm not asking to be a dick i'm just amazed at 109db you won something. for reference with 12" blaupunkts off about 900w i did a 144.8 on the dash and didn't win a trophy lol.

Lol no its alright there were only 4 people entered...but i beat a blazer with 2 12inch p2s...ya and 109 isnt to bad now is it...for a single cab truck i didnt think it was to bad...

...It sucks bro. I have seen bone stock systems hit mid 120's. Are you positive on that number?

well like i just said the guy said it was really like 135 normal decibels but only 109 competition dbs which i didnt understand but i know my bass isnt horrible lol...and considering the blazer that i competed against with the 2 12inch p2s it wasnt quite either...

whats the comp where they take your average.... maybe thats what he had at 109 and he said the guy told him he hit 135, that was probably his high.

 

[Mr. Opportunist 10+ year member]

ok 135 is your score then ignore whatever the hell he meant by "109 is competition db's"

 

[SilveradoKicker 10+ year member]

i believe you when you say this but how come my system wouldnt hit higher if thats horrible and same with the guy with 2 12inch p2s...

135 sounds more like it, that is an average score.

 

[bumpin_blazer 5,000+ posts]

if you hit 135 that's not bad which is probably what you hit. was the 109 maybe an outside db metering? i'm wondering if that's what he did or what.

 

[SilveradoKicker 10+ year member]

i watched the meter it said 109 on my dash....but i know like my system according to how you guys are talking is louder then that...considering that 2 12inch p2s in a blazer hit 107 according to the guy who owned it...
