Would My System Have Any Balls To Be A Gp?

[vw nutter]

hey folks, just curious to find out what you guys think of my setup which

im going to be installing into my 74 kombi van, will be running

- 2x MTX 81000d's roughly 3kw rms

- 2x Soundstream SPL15's in a 7cube slot ported/vent type box tuned to 40hz

- 3x optima d34's

- 1x CVR 200amp alt

any thoughts you might have on my system? would it classify as a GP? any ideas on rough DB numbers?

looking to achieve some really low low tunez/notes will is get this at all?

any opinions welcome

cheers

i bet it dumps

but no.

[jonathancullen89]

40hz is a little high, alot of people have fart cans. it takes alot of balls (power, woofers, low end bass) to be considered a ground pounder.

1000+ square inches of cone area is one "requirement"

[vw nutter]

oh ok yeah, what do you mean by "i bet it dumps'??, any ideas of how it would go though? im yet to install it., i was thinking of enventually lowering the Hz to roughly 35Hz and maybe adding another 2x 15's, any thoughts on what i have would be great. or some suggestions to get some better results.

cheers

he means, " I bet it POUNDS", but I wouldnt consider it a groundpounder.

IMO groundpounder is any vehicle that plays music @ 150db or more.

by the way I like the woofers you choose I had excellent results with them.

[vw nutter]

yeah thought so, well i sure hope it will like i said im just about to install the gear into my van

so should find out soon how it goes, but yeah i didnt think i would quite make it, any ideas on how to make it

into a GP? music at 150db yikes that would be sweet

yeah my gear is fairly old school but is good quality gear i think quality wise,

but why do you think it cant quite be a GP? please let me know im kinda a newby at this.

cheers

That right there says why he feels it wouldn't be a ground pounder.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it'll sound good/get loud, but the chances of it musically doing 150db is pretty slim. Ground pounders are generally tuned pretty low and can do 150 in the 30-35hz range. I say double the power and subs could be a gp.

not to hate against your question, i've seen it a few times here, but why are people so concerned with being a 'groundpounder'? hell if it's loud, it's loud
