Why do so many people think speakers PUSH watts

The funniest thing anyone has every told me happend about a week ago. My friend said his brother was "really" into car audio and knew a lot about it. Well my friend was bragging to his brother about how good my system is and told him to come listen for a demo. Of course the brother acted all non-chalunt* about it and said "Yeah your system has a lot of sound pressure, but isint that loud! After, that he tells me he was hitting 190dbs and that he only had 2 12"s off 2000 watts. I was quite dissapointed as I was excited to have a conversation with someone that was "really" into car audio and knew a lot about it.

 
The funniest thing I've heard....

This guy in a Mazda Miata kept coming up to the shop getting prices on installs, we'd tell him something and he'd come back 2 days later wanting a different price.

Was just one of those time wasters that talk about doing a 2 grand install but never do anything...

Well he did his own install and I admitted it was decently clean until he said this...

ahem

"Yeah I really like the way I have a digital volt meter on my CAPACI-TATER"

I held in my laugh because I didn't want to hurt the guys feelings, I walked inside and LOST IT, I can't even see the guy without laughing now

 
I'm best friends with Steve Cook

I'm always up there

he has too many people that will work too cheap to pay me what I want //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I also own a heating and air business, car audio is a hobby...not enough money in it to do day to day but I help out at his shop when they need it

 
lol my friend listened to my system and the 1st thing he says is "now just get a capacitor and that shit will sound SO much cleaner!" i laughed a little and explained to him caps... "nah man, my friend has a cap and it sounded WAY better after. he knows a lot about car audio. trust me man!" then i explained to him power and my 250amp alt... "... oh... ya, ok... i think you know more"

 
Ok, TSGP. If it doesnt have a name, then where do you work. Was wondering because i need a job where i can hang out all day at a stereo shop. Also, noticed you sure do drop Steve Cook's name alot, why? What you runnin, like to hear it. Steve Cooks BFF should have a hell of a system!
