[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8630892, member: 650438"] it wont sorry to say. Its an uphill battle to get loud dude. Your current goal is to learn how to get loud with what you have. Break 150 db with your current setup first before you start swapping gear out like underwear. By then you'll have proper knowledge on how to get loud then when you actually do swap out, you wont be disappointed. Dont be like my loser friend that got high dollar everything that only broke a 151 db and didnt know why. Really learn how to get the most output out of your current setup, keep in the lower classes and take home some first place prizes first. For you, build around the 0-1500 class because you'll just get slaughtered in the 1500-3000 or any class higher. Again, Just do enough without having the judge put you into a higher class. The name of the game is to be a middle weight boxer fighting featherweights. You have that advantage of a big van and lots of cone area, abuse it. Box Positioning, port adjustments and overall box experimentation will be the key to get 150db. Dont stick in the 1500-3000 class, not until you dominate the 0-1500 first. Thats my key advice for you. Slowly work your way up, doing a big jump without a good competing knowledge foundation is just a recipe for disaster and disappointment. However if you are just upgrading for yourself and dont care about the competition then go right ahead. Just dont expect to do well against actual competitors. [/QUOTE]
