The other day i caught up with one of my old mates and he was showing me his stezza which consisted of a Pioneeer (dunno model) H/U a set of Kenwood 6X9's up the back dash and a 12" Rockford Fosgate Punch sub in a small ported box powered by a 4ch 800Watt Kenwood amp.

So we had a Mini sound off see whos could hit harder.

And to my surpize my Bass drowned his whole stezza out I only have a dodgy sound4 H/u rigged at the moment coz my Pioneer recently **** it self and the sound4 was in my cupboard)
and a 15" kicker F15C sub in a 3.8 Cuft Box ported to 28Hz running from a 2 X 150w Power Acoustik amp.

He reckons he was expecting huge Mother amp and when he seen my amp he was shocked LOL

How come is my setup louder

My stezzas in my GH sigma sedan

his is in a VH SL/E Commy

big box 15 against small box 12

you say your bass shat all over his??

you're tuned to 28hz... were you runing tones or music? if musi, and it was low bassy music of course you'd sound bassier... i htink anywya... that and what bassmekanic said....

there are alot of variables...

SPL wise he oculd still **** on you...

We both tried the same song

36mafia (*****es and ass) Hell bassy song

Then we ran a Tone track with 28Hz, 32Hz, and 44Hz Tones

Both times mine was louder

By the way he had 2channels bridged for the sub(400w) and 1channel for each 6x9 (200w each)

but his music went louder than mine just the bass i drowned him out on?

The bass outside the car is all the bass below 30hz mainly. As lower frequencies are far more difractional.

And what would be better at putting out notes below 30hz? a 15inch in a big ported box tuned low or a 12 in a small ported box?

Thats why

Yeah i spose
But i was thinking about all the power he had going to his and i only have a smal 300 wattsmax
