I'm not understanding exactly what you are trying to do or say here. I don't think this is the forum for you if you are like that, maybe you should go somewhere else.
Why, because I don't agree with you?
No thanks, I'll stick around.
Originally posted by wesleysh I've hooked my subs up by touching the wires to the my $50 boomboxes speaker inputs, so what's your point?
My question here would be what is yours? You were the one that said underpowering your speakers is the worst thing you can do...
Originally posted by wesleysh We are not discussing the realm of possibility here. These are people who want good sound from their car audio and not damage anything. Running your Brahma's down at 300 watts is your business.
And I can do it for a year straight, and never damage my brahma. This idea of 'underpowering' a sub and damaging it is nothing more than a myth. You can get good sound, without flooring it. That isn't possibility, that is a reality.
Originally posted by wesleysh Nobody said anything about throwing 1200 watts into all your subs. Their are so many possibilities with either one of those amps. You can run a sub down at 75w very easily with one of the JBL's, so again what's your point?
You were the one that stated too little power is dangerous, and suggested amps that push the 1kW plus range, I'm still trying to figure out yours...
Originally posted by wesleysh If you want to run 100w into an L7, that's your business. But I'll stick to my 500w+ thank you.
You go right ahead, as I will not run an L7... they require too large of a box to sound good IMO...
Originally posted by wesleysh But are you saying that you can not improve the sound of your Brahma's if you ran more power into them?
Yup... bingo //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
Only thing I'll get is the same sound...
louder. Not better, just louder. Untrained ears tend to percieve louder as sounding better, I've done it, you've done it, everyone has done it... it's a common impulse from the brain.
Originally posted by wesleysh Which is why relatively my L7's would and have been proven to sound like doodoo with a small amp. If they were Pyramid subs I would have said, "cool, that sounds pretty nice." But Kickers and Pyramid's aren't the same price now are they?
Why? Because the kicker name is on it? Does that mean you have to add more power to get decent sound? Why?
That sounds like marketing to me...
