I have never been metered before but tomorrow I am diving in for the first time.

This is a Meca event in Canton, Illinois and they use a TL meter.

With this system where should I be on SPL?

that is all I am getting done not competing on anything else because system is not done. ( is it ever )

Well I dont know what it can do but I am not getting any cancellation... I want to get 2 more 12's amd put the 10's in my other car. Or 2 of Chodes 15 if they are still available in September

All I know is I have been to two friends houses and one was about 100 feet away from where I was parked and I was letting him listen to my stereo and I told him to get in and close the doors because I did not want to piss his neighbors off.. I had the windows up and his wife came out and told us that the windows were shaking and she could feel it in the floor of her house.

The other friend lives out i the country and I was about I am going to guess about 100 yards away from his house.. he asked me to pull in the drive and turn it up and he would come out if he heard me... he also told me he could feel it in his floors in his house.

The second friend use to compete in car audio back in the early 90's and he though that I was getting some where in the upper 30's maybe 140

but I dont know.. I will find out tomorrow though.

I got my camcorder charging and as long as I dont forget it I will get a video clip of it and post it Sunday night hopefully.
