[QUOTE="MikeyB, post: 4465132, member: 562290"] Well I headed out to themommyvan's house earlier tonight to meter the BTL. Now from the start of my build I was shooting for a loud daily driver setup on music, that just got nasty low. Well, after seeing the numbers it put up I have to say it was definately in the area I expected mid-140's. The thing that blew my mind is where this setup peaks at. I know there are some of you that will judge the numbers how you want to but for a somewhat musical setup I think its right where it should be. For any of you that dont know the equipment: 220 amp alt, yellow top in trunk, KX 2500, dual 1 ohm BTL.

[IMG]http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c241/MikeyB88/TL009.jpg[/IMG] And with the door open, peaking at ~30hz, looks a little lower in the pic but Im pretty sure we ran a 31hz tone in this one.
