My first comp this last weekend on 1 ss 10 and a rub1000.1 , I ran a 134.7 both runs in AS1 meca, my question is how big of a difference is there or how difficult is it to get above 140? I am new to this so please any help would be great

I'm not familiar with meca, is that burp or music? Depending on which SS sub it is you could definitely get a bit louder, especially with a larger amp and meter that you can use to test and see where youre loudest at

It is a older t2-10 , I have ordered a new incriminator but if I 134.7 on one 10 I wonder if I could get 140 out of it, but how big of a diff is 5 more db ?

Depends on what you have now and if there is a large room for improvement. It's a lot easier to get louder at a lower dB level such as in the 130's than it is once you hit larger numbers such as 150

Thanks for your info, what is a good meter to buy with out spending a ton

If you want an accurate meter there really is no cheap solution they cost an upwards of 300+ even used. You're better off just finding someone local who has one

What kind of car? what size/tuning of the box? what song did you play? Do you have any electrical upgrades? Do you have any dampening?

Meca as1 is on a burp with car off. What kind of box is that woofer in?

I think its music with the car off.

Park and pound is music. Rest are burps.

Yeah He probably burps a 137-138 if he picked a decent song. He might even be a little louder factoring in the voltage drop he must have had at the end of the 30 seconds. Remember this is at the headrest. USACi style I'd bet he's over a 140.

All MECA AS classes are car off and on music, no tones. I just did AS3 at the Ohio State Finals.

I stand corrected. I was lookin at the rules on there site and from what I could find it just said p&p is music.

I always thought the headrest was easier until I ran S3 a few weeks back.
