Dude Talking Crap About Hitting 146dbs On The Tl

[dleccord]

i think any 2 12s are capable of hitting at least the low 40s, let alone CVR. not saying they are the loudest but they are decently loud. so 2 12s at mid 40 is not surprising. he probably did his homework and maybe exagerated a few tenths but a 46 is good.

now only if he can post some pics up of his setup.

Ask him which TL it was on, old or new.

how many term labs are there??

If I'm not mistaken the 1st TL was a mic not a sensor.

On the other side of this a 46 isn't that bad to reach if done properly. It's when people strat doing from about 45-46 on up that it becomes a lot harder to do.

The other thing to look at is what it was in. a 46 and up is a bitch in a truck of my size however take the same setup into a small car and it slams

Agree here too.

1: ported...any more info on the box/setup?

2: "only 450rms" is a lot to a cvr which is rated 400rms/800max-they WILL get moving off that.

3: What's the vehicle?

My point exactly!

Compressing air is what'll win on the mic.

How much air he got? CRX? or a Van?

Also-How close are the subs to the mic placement? Back seats? Trunk? etc etc.

More info needed to tell if it's kosher or BS. LOTS of stuff is possible.

MY judgement is still out on the Tommy TL-150db /1-10" type R "record"..but I tend to be a skeptic as there is sooooo much confusiion about scores these days.

I have a "regular" that comes into my shop and BS's the day away.

His buddy (a total DOUCHE BTW) drives an S-10 pickup (99 i think) w/ a cut through, SEALED bed, custom paint that would be ok if he didn't try to outline the graphics in gay blue paint over his clear coat w/ something that looks like it's not even car paint...

1: He bought the ride in ok shape and has been destroying it and dirtying it's rep ever since.

2: It's a cut thru like epicenterdesigns did- box mostley in the bed and subs in the cab so the subs are right behind the seats w/ tonns of air to play with n the bed.Prolly 4-6 cubes net-so it's not huge but could be.

3: The C*ckbite claims it does a 151db on a TL.

4: Every time he "demos" it for me "the gains are not set" right and "it's too much for the box, it would blow if i turned it up more"

BULL SH*T!

I sat in it.

Then I jumped in my car and put a 148 on my epic 160 (which we know is about -5db from a TL)

AND my setup was KILLING his. Granted, his sounded just like you'd expect 2-12's in a single cab s-10 right behind the seats to sound, BUT really peaky, not musical at all AND MAYBE a 140 TL is he's lucky.

MOST FOLKS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A TL is but act like they do, so as not to have their feelings/rep crushed.I see it everyday.

~2cents.
