I wonder how many alternators they had to install. If I turn the

gain
up on mine I lose tons of horse power.

I'm working on a two-cycle hearing aid for ya. :)


LOL I could use a pair, I have moderate mid range loss in both ears. Now
if I crank it up or go to a concert I wear ear plugs.

Yea, best be careful with your hearing now or you'll be sorry later. I
use it on most any power equipment I operate.


Good idea. I started wearing eye protection after having several pieces of
metal dug out of my eye.

It is actually only a 3,000 watt system


You are correct. That would make more sense since he only has 6 subs. The
amount he spent is also wrong as he stated he only has 2 grand in it.

Is that enough to make you ears bleed or just deef?

Could most likely change your heart rhythm too.

Good Question. I wouldn't mind seeing the details of what they used
for the power supply.

Well if the above is the case I wonder why it's called a 30KW system? If
it's 9KW RMS per channel that only works out to around 25KW peak power
total for both channels together. I checked the URL out but all I get is a
checked banner on the left side of the screen. You have a better link?

If I read it right it's Lijewski that has the 3KW system, and he is just
appearing in the photo with the owner, Witek, of the higher powered system.

Lee if you read the link you posted they called the guy who the article is
written about a 3,000 watt system, the guy standing next( Tom Witek) to

him
is supposed to be the one who has a 30 kw system. His was the stats I
posted that said 9 kw he probably upgraded.


I'll take your word for it. The link that was posted:

http://www.termpro.com/asp/competitorstats.asp

the only thing that shows up for me is a banner pattern on the left side.
The rest of the page appears blank. Is that the right URL?
