[QUOTE="My63bug, post: 8601266, member: 672914"] So I know a lot of guys have their highest number on the meter.. and when they're talking car audio they say I'm doing "148"( for instance).. where should the meter placement be at if you're trying to give people your honest number. The car sealed unsealed? I've only been to one comp. just to get a meter number. They put the meter on windshield with the car sealed. I did 134 lol ( clamp 400w).. Since then I I've upgraded everything and now I have my own meter. I get 144.7 sealed n the same spot on the windshield. I roll the driver side window down my number goes to 145.9. In the kick window up 146.8. Window down in the kick 147.9.. all clamped at about 800watts.but voltage dropping to 11.5. 1ohm... I'm hoping I'm going to get more power from this 2200w amp when i add the 2nd alt and a 25ah limitless lithium boosting and stabilizing my voltage. So my question is what would you call my meter number. Iv been saying 144.7. Should I be metering at the headrest? [/QUOTE]
