Why do people think SPL scores make their cars "loud"?

"Loud to the ear" is completely subjective. Your version of "it be wangin' y'all" or "broke my back window", or "flexin' the doors" or whatever other buffoonery is thrown around on youtube videos means something different to everybody and doesn't mean much to people with any common sense who have spent any time around a meter. SPL is completely objective. 140db is 140db and can be measured scientifically and accurately anywhere at any time. If you hit 140db @ 50hz I can turn on my meter dial up to that level at that frequency and know exactly what yours is doing.

Not saying it's the end all/be all of audio, but it's the only thing that means a **** if I can't sit in your car.

 
Maybe the references were off but here's how I see it. Don't hate on someone else does just cause its not what you do or like. (Obviously not stated at you rabbit)
No worries man. I have been retired for years now. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/suave.gif.858fc102f7646e678ee8af7e1fbc41d1.gif

You keep saying that but I know you'll be back at it eventually.
Naw, I just build now. The woman said something about perhaps running next year though. Not sure it will be allowed because of my affiliations or not..but we will see.

If she does I will not build anything of hers at all, might give her pointers though... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

If you're m"married" then she'll be put in pro/mod classes cause of you. Maybe next year I'll build something for the wife to compete in

I understand the classes(I'm a judge and I'm directly related to various orgs). What I meant was i don't think with my direct relations that she will be allowed to compete. That is the reason I retired, it was becoming an issue in the lanes and to many complaints.

 
sq>spl/"loud" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
I like SQ, but even though i judge it, I feel that the competition side of it is lacking. Far to subjective and if you get outside of the entry classes you will spend far to much time/money on it.

 
Why do you dumb motherfuckers that post up scores and claim how "loud" you are when really loudness is an entirely different perception. You should be saying "i have a ****** small car so it holds more pressure brah". Loud to the ear>loud on meter //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
Meters measure loud. So loud is not something different. If you mean who can hit the highest score at the lowest frequency, you'd still get crushed. Not all spl people have high tuned fart boxes. Your post was full of fail.
