[QUOTE="vbk09, post: 6823708, member: 622336"] well im not sure what mic they used...i took it to a local car audio shop, where we sat in my car with windows up, and stuck the microphone on the windshield, facing the hatch...im not sure the brand either but looking at the machine, i could tell it was just a cheap $20 SPL meter. the box is tuned to 42 or 43hz gains set to "nom" on amp, low pass at 55hz-ish and bass boost at 12dB and about the double d-s...yea they are pretty dang amazing...my friends got two 2500 12's hooked up to a boston gt28 and yes they will pound the mess out of his car...but for $100 you can't go wrong with an unused g5..only paid 100 for amp and got box free for graduation,so id say i got away pretty cheap for what i have do yall see me hitting much harder by upping the amp to one actually worth having? the rms on the sub is 450, but ive heard of people pushing much more from brands that actually output true wattage [/QUOTE]
