Hugh G. Rection Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 153 db's is twice as loud has 150 db's. correction.... 153db is twice as much acoustical pressure as 150db, not twice as loud. Quote Owner of BigAss Ports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptcary Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I don't compete for SPL, but new front seats made the biggest audible difference for me. I have seen others here test with seats folded, seats out, visors up, visors down.

Boon Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 the car is a 2005 toyota corrola 4 dr with 2 12splw in a 5cu. box .2 displacement one a 5500d bamf and the 24 is when it get the tl im looking for a cheap tl dual sensor if any one got one but for being in the trunk i cant do much i have no room left like 2ftx 5in So you haven't even had it metered yet? I would bet you're not doing 146+ at the moment. There's a lot of things you can play with to gain spl without changing your equipment at all... Box position and direction (subs up, back, forward, to the side if you can fit it...) Loading off things (back seats up, back seats down, subs right up against hatch, subs 6" from hatch, etc etc) Front seat position Visor position Steering wheel position Glovebox open/closed Center console open/closed Air con vents open/shut Depending whether you're sticking to legal or just want the biggest number possible, meter location (kick is almost always heaps louder than dash), windows up/down, doors open/closed All these things can gain you a tenth or so and it all adds up. But you need hours of playing around with the termlab to find out what works best for your setup in your car. Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
