First Car Comp/Show First 150 and 160db

Went to my first competition today and it was pretty sweet. I didn't know there was so much car audio activity in ND. There was probably 20+ vehicles with various sound systems. Mostly it was kicker, I also saw JBL, DD, and a few other brands. I was thinking about metering my single cab but I didn't feel like it was presentable, and if I did I was going to have to compete in some other class besides stock because my box was above the windowline by a inch or so.

Anyway, the First 150 I heard was in some extended cab truck with 6 kicker 15" subs walled (maybe they were 12's). They turned it up and I got a listen. It was pretty loud, and the guy who demoed it said it did a 150.

And Blaine Trones the guy with a 160...

He was metered that day and did a little over 160 at 47hz. It has 4 kicker Solo X's walled, 4 Kicker Warhorses, and 16 batteries in the back.

It was by far the loudest I have ever heard... from the outside. I got to stand next to the passenger door and listen as everyone was hopping in and out. I would have sat in it but after about halfway through the second song he had to quit because it was starting to smell. It was LOUD for sure but I imagine it wasnt playing 160db when he was demoing, which makes me wonder what it sounds like when people play mid 60's on music.

I am going to this again next year and then I will be competing. Its pretty cool how much fun you can have at these events when you dont know a single person there. Well thats it, thanks for reading.

You wonder what its like when people play mid 160s on music?

Well there are only a handful of guys that can do that in the world.
