[QUOTE="Kickerkitty, post: 1882262, member: 565947"] Ok, I have a short one for you, nothing special but it was funny the way it went down... So I got a new job and for months I had been casually mentioning when I got something in. First my Pro60's, then my 880PRS, then some new PRS amps, got my car deadened etc... So after a couple months of this the girl at the front desk whom I know decently tells me about how her boyfriend spent $1000 on the system in her accord, and built it all himself. Saying stuff like, "you really have no idea, ask my friends, it's so loud they can't handle it..." Well, at this point I am interested because $1000 is roughly the cost of mine and I want to know what she has. She can't tell me anything except she thinks it's mostly pioneer. Well I like pioneer and I am imagining its the SPL line of stuff right? Well after weeks of her asking eventually one day leaving work she tells me I have to demo my system for her friend and boyfriend. We get out to the parking lot and first I make her play hers. i know what's up immediately, she has an older JVC deck, an OLD 12" pioneer IMPP in a small sealed cube in the center of the trunk, a no name couple hundred watt amp, and sony xplod 6x9's. SO she plays the tootsie roll song and vibrates the back seat a little bit. I smile when she asks "so do you REALLY think you're louder than that?" in all seriousness. I just told her to grab any CD she wanted and come over to my car. My setup isn't the bee's knee's, but I am running 1200 watts to two CVR 12's ported to 30hz. 300 watts per side to my Pro60's, off of an epicenter and an 880PRS, but it is a mid 140's system and hers can't be over 130, so there is a huge difference between the two cars right... Well she hands me Megadeth and I put it in, the two girls start saying things like "wow what a nice deck". I give the epicenter knob a small twist knowing they don't know the difference and going for maximum effect.
