nice scores man.

as far as i guess "comparison" factor.. nothing more than nice #'s... there were too many differences in the 2 set ups. but as far as # wise, those are some very nice #'s man.

congrats.

EDIT.. spelled wrong =[

sealed on the dash legal?

or

in the kick?

[andym85]

you can take the following for what you will also...

one 15" type r was about 1db louder then a L7 in what was a pretty much a direct swap in basically an extended cab ranger

one 15" hdc3 was about .5-1db louder then a type r in a dircet swap in a blazer..

but those type r's seriously impress me when you consider how cheap you can get them for...

USACI Street Beat rules for ya David

1. No constructed enclosure or speaker placement that may manipulate the SPL sensor may be placed forward of the “B” pillar and will be considered reason to reclassify the vehicle to the Port Wars or Super Port Wars divisions or disqualification. This decision will be at the discretion of the head judge.

2. Scores will be determined by an average SPL taken over 30 seconds. Only music may be played. (No test tones or sine waves).

3. Sensor placement will be any place in front of the “B” pillar facing forward with globe affixed … or mounted to windshield without globe at 12” to the left of passenger’s side A pillar and 4” above the dash. (Competitor’s choice)

4. Only commercially available music may be used for judging (no burned cd’s). Music must contain a discernable bass beat or rhythm. (Must be music). Music with intentionally extended bass tones will not be allowed. This will be evaluated by the head judge

5. 1200 rpm maximum (no revving engine during test).

6. Windows up or down, doors and/or sun roofs open or closed. Doors can be fanned but not slammed during the run.

7. In the event of a system malfunction prior to a score being recorded, the competitor will be given 5 minutes to make repairs and attempt to register a score.

8. Factory or factory replacement front seats must be installed in the vehicle in factory locations. Must have the front bench or both front seats.

9. No woofers larger than 8” inches may be forward of the “B” pillars. (Limit 4)

10. All woofers larger than 8" must be behind the back of the front drivers and passengers seats.

11. SB5 is the only class open to any vehicles that use a system voltage higher than 14.7 maximum or utilize multiple alternators. Any competitor meeting any or all of the above qualifications may compete in SB5 by choice.

12. Reruns are allowed.

13. Any current USACI member who competes in at least one Street Beat event will be invited to compete in Street Beat at the USACI world finals.

14. In the event an issue arises that is not covered above, the final ruling will rest with the on site event director.

i dont think david was looking for usac rules he was just wondering if it was a sealed/legal dash reading. for the prpose of comparison. it is most of the time louder with usac than with db drag. becouse of mic placement and being able to open the windows/doors

[David]

yea, I didnt read the video thread so I didnt know it was SteetBeat.

either way nice numbers, I wasnt trying to talk down or anything sorry if I came accross that way.

is Usaci in nor Cal? I want to meter christians car like that.

Exactlyyyyyy.....1000 bucks compared to about 400ish for Rs...and lower peak and less power

Ill get that 54 in a few days when my TL gets back and i can test a good bit more

Not downin either company or what not, its just a friendly comparison, freaky that the Rs are that close to that beefy of a sub

Now granted the Rs will smell when beat on hard and i couldnt get the HDCs to smell with 1 amp, or 2 amps for that matter really
