DylanBunch Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I don't know, I wish you could just have like 8 high end components in the front doors to hear over 155's.In a perfect world.... i hear ya...Would take a lot of power for the 8 sets also. You see that PA's can get blow your ear hole out loud, on shit power...... thats how the AUDIOTISTICS van runs like 20 PA's on ONE amp......... Sensitive as a mother fucker......... But,... with that, you sacrifice.......... speaking of the audiotistics van I hear those Rockford fosgate pa speakers sound pretty dam good obviously not like high end components but good for pa Thats what im hopin They sound pretty damn good to me, hopefully better once I get my 80prs tuesday 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMI CUSTOMS Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Pro audio for 160s+ daily for me, components worked good for awhile now just can't keep up unless I ran a bunch of them, why not pro audio at that point, cheaper and will produce the response I need to keep up with high SPL.

TeamHT Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I don't really care what people think, I honestly like the sound of some pro audio. People can talk to me about why components are better, sound better, better midbass but personally...I like the way they sound. Some just sound very nice, easy on the price, and make it super easy to keep up with a loud sub stage. I haven't hit 60s yet but even at 56 legal sealed components weren't doing it for me. Of course I could spend $500+ or I could spend a small fraction of that and still sound good to me. Now this is simply my opinion. Everyone's hearing is different, and for some PAs probably do sound bad. Doesn't bother me because to me it sounds good. And the work to make PAs sound good isn't that excessive. Just a little bit of work can have great results. I see the truth of this coming down to goal. My goal is to have something sound great, get really loud, and not rape my wallet. PAs work for me Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should have frightening dynamics and sound amazing. Did someone say a 12" fullrange in the kickpanels? "What's that?; 15" midbass speakers? Surely you cant be serious. I am serious; and don't call me Shirley. The midrange should be here tomorrow. 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Lightning Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Given my type of install and power ... I'd be willing to be that my component front stage would be able to keep up with 150 db plus with no problems ... I just feel that I do not need that much bass for my system.

I'd be willing to be that my component front stage would be able to keep up with 150 db plus with no problems ... I just feel that I do not need that much bass for my system. IT definitely seems to boil down to personal preference. Some people want to hurt your ears with their PA drivers...while others will stick to the warm low end response you get from components. I personally will stick with components. But just my opinion. Firm believer in letting my cars do my talking! You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.
