I have to ask..... I notice you have input on a lot of high power amps and setups...
Do you really have PERSONAL experience with this equipment or just what your buddies using other equipment say? And please provide proof......

The reason I ask is because I see A LOT of input on this thread from A LOT of people... who personally have NOT A CLUE what they are talking about, rather there just talking about what THEY heard.

I think your full of it and you try to talk like the big boys
Why does it matter. If you have seen other setups and what they can do and what they are doing and you can verify that what does it matter?

 
Tis True^^^ And i still dont believe the sundown is as bulletproof.

But to what is important, to the OP, i would say go with whatever you can get cheaper. Or wiat until the new 40.1 comes out and get that.

LOL..... thats what I thought and needed to know....

And yes... that does make a difference, and yes it does matter.....

I guess in your world watching nascar means you can drive really fast and make left handed turns really well!

i have seen other people using 2 3ks like me.... but not all of them streetbeat a 155+... build has alot to do with things.

such as my teamate ran 6 3ks and had a huge power house to back up the system where as at one time i had very little electrical and was basically running off a battery bank that was a joke.

My amps got warm quick... his never did... if someone was looking at my system they would immedaitly say 3ks run very hot and arent efficient... troof of it was.. is i knew i was choking the fuk outa the amps at the time and he had enough backup to power texas for a week.

Haha, i guess im kinda doing the same thing as the 20.1 isnt the same as a 40.1. But im talking from my own experience with my IA product.

In no way is that the same. Anyone can wire up an amp, anyone can get HO alts, anyone can get tons of batteries. Not everyone can drive a NASCAR, that is a talent, hooking up a piece of electronics is not a talent.

Also laughing at the misspelling of decibel in your username, lol.

Build has a lot to do with what SPL you get yes, but anyone can hook up an amp.

 
Lol. You are fail. K it does take alot of talent to build a loud system. If the world is like you say here, everyone would be hitting 183dbs.
I know, to actually get the SPL requires talent, actually hooking up an amp at a low ohm load, not so much. But yes, building the box, placing it, prepping the car for it, all that takes talent.

LOL...... NOTE TO SELF and others...... Never Ever ask Bose301s for any tips.

There is talent.... There is experience....

What you have is called sideline experience... you watch the big boys, so you think that makes you one.

And dont worry about my spelling, we all know you threw that in their to detour the embarrassment of being called out on shit you have not a clue about.

Whatever, I am an EE, I think I have a pretty good grip on these sorts of things even if I haven't done it in my own vehicle.

Oh... so your an EE..

Okay, so you have all the experience you need in hooking up amps and wiring them down and doing setups..... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I am also an EE certified high and low voltage //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif and I still am learning things and still have not an idea what I am doing at times.

But back on topic....... I found the answer I was looking for.
