got some cheapo decibel meter from walmart. its the scosche boom stick. i registered 121 db in the car (boston acoustics/1 12" kicker comp) and my friend got 124.5 db in the car (alpine type r in the front/ type s in the back and two 10" infinity kappa perfect subs) something seems off??

his two 10" infinity's (1000w sony amp 35hz) are sooooo much louder than my one 12" kicker (600w sony amp 40hz). both in ported boxes that Logan designed.

thoughts?

Stuck mine in the port (163+ on TL)...read ~130 on the 'boom-stick'...then read 'over'.

It hasnt read anything over 120 since :-)
