Lows louder with window down


Recommended Posts

People outside the car can also hear it better when you roll the windows down. It's always more fun to cruise by a Wal Mart entrance with windows down and bass full blast. People just can't resist turning to look at what's shaking the ground :D

I'm going to venture to say you're young or immature or both because as audiophiles we DON'T want to intentionally give people a negative impression of us we do what we do for the love of audio not to purposely aggravate or bother people... So please refrain from being an assclown from now on it makes our community look bad ....Thanks

x2 this. intentionally bothering people is just retarded and gives REAL bass heads a bad name. also doubt a couple 12's are shaking concrete. they probably cant help to look because they're wondering what in the fuck is making that noise, like trunk rattle.

I don't personally do that... I think I just phrased it wrong... yeah it was kinda past my bedtime when I posted that "DERP". Besides, my little stock electrical is not gonna turn any heads from bass, but more from trunk rattling as you mentioned. I will keep that in mind, however... after I've upgraded my electrical and amp, I will not cruise by crowded areas with my windows down blasting some ghetto music LOL. There are too many sensitive cops in my area for me to do that safely anyways.

It's also louder on the lows with both windows down, but the high notes are louder with the windows up. :shrug:

Mine is exactly the same.....anything over 39hz is louder with the windows up.....here is a direct comparison of the 32hz on the meter windows up vs windows down....all scores are on the dash
