Hotdog Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 First off I dont consider my audio setup a big one, especially compared to the systems on here. even as small as my system is it hits really hard.. recently I switched from a T10001bd to a Sundown SAE1200-d. Then I added 2 agm batteries. I have been getting headache's lately and I can only attribute them to playing the music loud. Do any of you experience this? I would have to guesstimate that I am in the 148 range right now. My last comp I did was with the T10001bd on 4 subs and I was hitting 145.7 on the dash with driver door open. 1. Have you ever got a headache from listening to the beat too loud? 2. If yes what is your SPL currently? I don't know how some of you do it.. damn cant imagine sitting in a vehicle in the mid 150's.

Bigg Boy Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 I am just about in the mid 150's I personally don't get head aches, but I do feel sick after doing a bunch of burps while testing.

Crump Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 When I sat in your car, your highs were screaming and hurting my ears and I had a slight headache after, maybe adjust that a little bit? or did it just start after you got the new amp for your 2 12's + 2 15's?

audiofanaticz Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Im in the 150db range and dont get headaches. If I sit back in my seats all the way, I notice my back get numb and all tingly, my ears start to hurt a bit from the pressure, but no headaches Maybe you got some really bright/harsh tweets that are causing the headaches for you? By any chance do you wear glasses, or feel your vision is not what it once was? maybe get your eyes checked. I know I get headaches periodically from not wearing my glasses all the time. I hardly beleive you gained 2+ db's going from a rf 10001bd to a sae 1200. We all know those little RFs are underated alot and probolly does close to the same power as your new sae1200. Your batteries may help with your reserve capacity a good bit, but not no 2+db's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your batteries may help with your reserve capacity a good bit, but not no 2+db's. well I went from a t10001bd on 4 subs to a Sundown 1200d on 2 subs and a p5002 on the other 2 subs. and the difference from the T1001bd to the sundown 1200d was pretty significant to me. I don't wear glasses but I am getting older and they say when you hit your 40's that your eyesight goes, but for now everything seems fine. And Crump this will happen even if the song I am listening to has no highs in it.

kl0wn Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Bass can cause headaches from what I have experienced/seen. If your ears/body are not use to it, it can give you a headache. After I lost my license and sold everything I didn't listen to any type of bass for a few months, then I got the new vehicle/system and on my way home from class I had it blaring on the interstate whole way home (roughly 35 minutes) and I had a little bit of a headache when I got home. So yeah I have experienced this before. 06 Mini Cooper S Sundown, SoundQubed Cadence, XS Power 151s Sealed 155s Outlaw Windshield @ 37hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
