also it looks like i will be back in the 150db range soon . gonna pick up some old memphis HP's for super super cheap .
also while at the show i got to see the pioneer SPL machine . it pulled a 176.6Db , though its highest to date is a 179.8db . making it officially the loudest vehicle in the world .
it has 13 subs and 52 amps, alot of 4" thick lexan , and enough concrete to build a small house .

never really kept track of it . i figure 40 bux per show all last year . i went to 8 shows . but it all evens out . gas , equipment , and entry fees take their toll .
its really all about pride in my system and just having fun competing really . you learn alot of stuff that helps out in regular installs . get to meet great people . get to be around some of the most awesome installs . best of all you become a driving force in car audio . autosound competitiors are the reason why the equipment gets better every year. we demand the best equipment we can get , and as part of advertising the manufacturers give us what we want . we make a name for them .
hey, im dfunk but i bought a mtx 7500 ifor my truck today, dayum buddy, hellow bass!!!

glass is real easy to work with . it dont take all that long to set it up and stuff . the only part that takes forever is sanding especially if you plan to have it painted .
dont mix in too much hardner!!! shriinks the material too much, also use fleece, better than fiberglass
