I just thought this might be fun to see what everybody else is hitting. right now with just my one 12" I'm hitting 125db, I'm very disapointed in that. but I figured I'd tell everybody since I'm asking the question :-)

im hitting about 143db but thats on spl and every single ounce of highs and mids turned off!!

i have a custom box (3jlw0s) powered by a zapco 350 amp, alpine face plate, alpine dash speakers and pioneer 3way 6x9s

i was very upset with this score..i wanna be able to hit 150 by the summers end..(audio store wants me to buy 2 12'jlw7s and mount them where the rear seats go, somewhat sponsored of course) not really sure if i wanna do that though..

If this topic is still around in three weeks,I will let everyone know what my Expedition hits. I am entering it in the Annual Texas Heat Wave Custom Car and Truck show next month. I am building a fiberglass enclosure for 8 Earthquake DBX 12" subs and 2 1500 watt amps. I know it is not a 3rd gen,but I will post pics under a new thread as soon as I get them developed.

come on now? 156.02, where was the mic put, don't mean to start trouble, just that thats what I do for a living, and i've never seen or heard of such a absurd number for 3 10's in a camaro. Is this a certified number? Is it in a wall, you should post a pic. I just can't believe this one.
