Things that piss you off in the Car Audio world.


Recommended Posts

When your friend inverts his subs but doesn't (and won't) reverse the polarity even after you offer to because "this'll give him a different sound."

I wouldn't let you touch my subs either. You only need to reverse polarity if one sub is inverted, and the other isn't.

I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me.

u hate c-fizzy?

The lows. My box isn't perfect, but I'm hitting somewhere in the mid to high 20's. I have heard NO ONE else's system do that. And I either hear "I don't care about the lows." or "Mine has the lows, too." Okay, if you don't care about the lows, why do you have subs? My speakers can hit 50hz, so why waste the money? And no, those are not "the lows". That awful noise would be your subs bottoming out in your sealed box.Okay, that's my rant!

HAHA!

It's awesome to actually play properly down to 20hz.

One word, kicker (I would rather hear "sony xplodz"). I am so sick of people around my town bragging about their "kickers" they just bought. Then claiming that kicker makes the best subs even though I tell them about all the other great subwoofer manufacturers out there (IA, DC, DD, AQ, Sundown).

I then ask them for demos of their system and they all seem to play "on my level" by Wiz Kalifa and none of them can hit any other bass note in the song besides the high one, which I estimate to be around 50ish hertz.

Then I show them my system and I beat their eardrums down with music in the 33-36 hertz range at 146 deebeez and they almost shit themselves. Then they all ask how they can get as loud as I am, then they shit themselves again when I told them how much I paid for my IA Warden 15" when it costs more than their whole system.......

It just really bugs me how noobz develop this complex into thinking one rather mediocre brand is the best there is and nothing else is better (I see this a lot with JL and RF too). I told someone about digital designs one time and they told me "DD is shit" because their subs don't have any sound quality compared to their kickers :trippy: I just walked away haha

Well there's my rant :peepwall:

RF makes great products, especially amps.. I'd probably retract that statement if I were you.

I do retract that statement about their amplifiers, I should have been more specific with my statement lol. It's the people with p1's and p2's that think their subwoofers are the best out there. lol.

OH I REMEMBERED ONE.

People who don't take their head units out of demo mode. Especially at night. It's all I can see. I can't even concentrate on what they're talking about because I'm so distracted by the fireworks in the dash. <_<
