turnin26s Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 I have a 2005 f150 supercrew with one 12w7 in a custom ported box upfired to jl specs. The sub is powered by a 1000/1 slash v2 amp. I have a 250 alt and all electrical is 0 gauge. my question is what range should i prolly hit on the meter? Ive never did a comp with this setup and just wondering what it might hit around before the comp gets here sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korey_hofer Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 depends you could do 120 if you don't know what your doing, or some one who is an expert can get 150 out of it. db's mean nothing really Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme. I talk shit on other forums like a little bitch and hope i don't get caught out on the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubs_fan0718 Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) No one can really tell you what ur going to hit, it could be anywhere from 137-140 thats a big vehicle for just 1 sub. maybe a lil higher but u'll just have to test and find out.

Maxim Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 190 dB. New world record. On music. All day. Quote wtf is lolcats? I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers. I was hoping for 150 . I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking to keep your sub in good condition, leave "Bass" on the headunit at 0 and turn down bass boost on the amp to 0. Also, set your gains with an oscilloscope (or at least a digital multimeter) If it's not loud enough for you when set properly, then you've caught the disease and will have to upgrade equipment.
