You'll always love it then. Just, when you get older your need for it will change gears. That's what drove me to the clubs as a younger chap. The freaking intensity of the music coupled with the hot chicks all bumping and grinding with anyone as drunk as themselves on the dance floor.
I just love the feeling of air being sucked in and out of my lungs. I had a girl friend once who would do this too. It was weird but hot, though she was just freaky as sh/t anyway..
for daily use i love a sealed enclosure low passed at 50hz (pair of 6.5" comps play everything above that point) & SSF on the amp turned off - my 12" IDmax gives me what i want & im sure it can 140 on the meter .....
No Yanks, I'm the same way. I love bass, but I never get to turn things up with the baby and wife in tow. Also I don't like tickets or pissing people off in traffic. Any time I drive with the windows down and subs up I get angry looks and that's not what I'm about - I don't want to further the azzhole 'look I've got bass' image.
Rovin, I turn my subs down to -26db, with the lpf 60hz and it sounds pretty good. Not amazing, but nice and much better than factory for sure. This new h/u and eq settings have warmed things up a lot- much better mid bass. I listen to mainly metal and it doesn't sound right bass-heavy. I'll turn the bass up to 0 and enjoy 150+ when I'm listening to rap though.
well thats very thoughtful & mature of u since most ppl with that amt of power think they always have to turn it up just because they have it & dont give a damn about if others dont care to hear their bump
alot of ppl fail to realize that others may not want to hear ur sh1t or simply want some peace & quiet ...
i really think i like building more that bass its self... after u play 155dbs daily it kinda gets old. but a good sq set up never gets old! it is just sad when u have to listen to a stock car...
boss, my friends are always striping and re tinting their window tint because they always get fix-it tickets for it. if anything, your just drawing more attention to your self. cops in my area care more about tint than speeding say 5-10 over..
I (knock on wood) haven't received a ticket for tint the 5 years or so I've had dark tint. I have 5% on top of 20% all the way around except the windshield. It's really dark even during the day, but my kid loves not having the sun in her eyes, and I like the security that people can't see in my car to steal. In summer it's SOO much cooler too. Like I doubt it get's 10 degrees hotter in my car than outside with my window shades on the windshield. When my wife needs to have her a/c at a level of 4 out of 5 I have mine at 1.
Plus it makes me look all gangsta. I've had someone go to get in my car thinking it was theirs, pull the handle, open the door, and go to get in before they realize I'm sitting in the drivers seat lol.
I try to be respectful as well when playing music. I play mine at volume 20 normally, 22 sometimes. Gain is set at volume 26. If I'm at a stop light and next to people I'll normally turn it down. I however enjoy riding through the hood though bumping out to some hard bass
im not trying to be rasis, but im just guna say it....its always funny when some black dudes pull up in a box cutti on 26's bumping and i go to leave and turn it up for all its got........hahaha man do they give me some looks, lol
and troy and boss, do you guys do the 6" strip on the winshield also? ive rode with a friend and we actually got pulled over and they measured it to see if it was more than the 6" limit...i couldnt believe it.
