[QUOTE="SICK GV, post: 7367819, member: 610487"] Power means nothing. Some amps say they produce a certain rating but a lot of the time its false. And NO you do not gain 3 db from doubling the power or surface area. Your numbers are based on build more then the gear although good gear helps. If you want 160s from a Jeep you need to wall it. My Jeep Cherokee did 156s with 2 15s and a 5k amp all in the cargo area and I added more batts and 4X power and gained only 1.5db. Sometimes your car just stops getting loud with your setup and you need to change it. There are guys in stock classes with 2 subs 1 amp and 1 battery that are louder then modified guys using walls with 8 15s 10k power and a battery bank. Its all about the car and the build. SPL dont make sense, its just the way it is man [/QUOTE]
