Why aren't more people hitting 160?

[jrdnhsnbrg 10+ year member]

It's actually way more than that.
If you calculate the number of Joules in a battery vs. a cap... it's retarded lopsided. Even if we don't take into account the very high ESR (and resulting voltage drop) of the capacitor.

A big G31 batt can be upwards of 40,000 Joules.

A 100F cap is maybe 1,000J. Maybe. (taking into account the operating voltage). It's estimated that the big supercapacitor banks that some of us use are ~ 4,000-6,000 Joules each.

A Joule is a watt/second. Meaning one Joule can support one watt for one second.

I honestly can't tell if the OP is trolling or not though. I don't know why I feel like all of these keystrokes are wasted.

Thanks for helping me prove my point even better I guess? Lol //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

I remember when I used two prefab boxes with way overrated woofers.

One of these guys at the local shop told me it could easily hit a 160 plus.

The look on that guy's face is a look of "You guys better realize the amount of sarcasm in my voice right now..." Gotta love Sonic Electronix.

Have you ever tried a cap with a battery? Let alone a 100 farad cap with a kinetik and yellow top? Imagine the gobs of power stored up for a nice showdown.

Yup they are useless in every way. Literally the only way a cap is a good component is to reduce noise in the system (hisses, whines, etc.). Even then a proper install will take care of that for you. A battery is better in every single way and cheaper.

You have alot to learn grasshopper.

FYI this is the thunderdome. This is obviously a troll.

This thread was originally in general discussion if I remember right and got moved... Coulda misread it in that big recent thing at the home page of the forum.

He didn't prove your point he made a statement saying you were off in your statement that 500-1000 farad would be closer when in fact is way way off hence the print he put in bold

TFade is a god among car audio enthusiasts, he has had his ballz replaced with tweeter pods for better imaging while chicks blow him

Seriously dude do you have anything positive to say EVER? Yes, he corrected me, and it turn helped me prove my point. Good lord, you need to learn to respect people, whether they are college students like me who casually dabble in car audio or guys who have been doing it their whole career.

I'm with you on this he did help you prove your point just more correctly. Chef seems to think he's big cheese on campus. Not saying I don't like the guy or anything though. Glad he's getting rid of that cvr horse shit.

I came back to audio after being gone for close to 15 years, back then kicker was worth something, I was wrong and have since stopped and read for awhile getting advice from these guys and learned so yes my **** suked and I am changing that, its harder when mommy and daddy don't pay for my stuff

@murph dude I sincerely apologize about the other day I was ****** and was wrong man

blew my funky pups, need to find more to hit 160s

I really hate people on here sometimes.
The loudest setup similar to that one in the history of the universe is 160.8db. And that's outlaw on a purpose built burp setup.

I really hope your joking. Is google not available at your fingertips?
