Does 120db seem right?

[QUOTE="2wheeler, post: 2733403, member: 559633"] Just got a new sound meter for work (verifying sound levels of fire alarm systems) and of course I went right to my truck and turned it up! Basic system, 1 pair of comps in the front doors on a 100x2 amp and 1 ported IDQ10 on a 400 watt amp. Meter peaked at ~120db, C scale. This is nothing important BTW, just interesting. The biggest thing to me is how loud competion systems must be at 140+. The difference from 100 to 120 is huge, so the next 20db to the 140s must be painful.... Do my #s seem plausible? [/QUOTE]
