Oh I get it now. No, no one really ever sat in the back, due to my amps being in the backseat, lol!

I was running a PA 2250D daily driving. though I tihnk the amp was actually putting out 2000 watts not 2250. gets annoying sometimes and my face would go numb LOL but I was fine.

what he's saying is that a REAL 1000 watt system is LOUD!

Also saying that you're only going to get tht kinda power @ full volume with 0dB tones - which music is not!

EXACTLY. just because you set your gain at volume 28 to put out 1000 watts with a 0db sine wave doesnt mean youre amp will be giving your sub 1000 watts at volume 28 with music. hell, dont be surprised if your sub is only getting 500 watts at volume 28 with your gain set at that when playing music. but im not saying crank your gain up past your "set-gain" point.

At 156 dbs in my cutty, I couldnt drive. Felt like someone was hitting me on the back of my head with a baseball bat. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
