This forum needs some livening up :D

How many of you are into big systems and have competed? I personally have only competed in one show and took 3rd in my class. At that time my car hit 142.5 dB. My class was in Stock 301-600.

Nope, I have never competed. I don't car about how many dbs mu system can put out, I know it is a good ammount. All I care about is it sounding crisp and clear, and that is with a highs, mids, and bass.

What kind of stuff are you using?

I have Morel separates, Concept subs n amps, and Kenwood head unit & changer.

I am not big into competition myself. I took my car in once since the show was held at a shop 2 miles from my house. Thought it would be fun just to see how my system did. After that experiene though makes me glad I never went full-fledged into competiton.

I know a thing or two about systems. I used to be heavily into them, before i got into performance. I had in my last system, 2 Kicker Competition 12's, 3 Rockford Fosgate amps about 400w each, 2 6x9 Pioneer Priemere's for mid, 2 Pioneer Priemere 5 1/4 installed in custome kick panel and 2 Rockford Fosgate tweeters mounted in top of dash. This was all controlled by a Boston Acoustic crossover and at the time a Jensen Headunit. This was all in a Blazer.

I have always had good luck with Kenwood headunits and have been partial to them. I am hoping to get one of the MP3 player headunits pretty soon. Alex has one in his Jetta and he loves it.

Running a Kenwood head unit with MB Quart 6" and 6"x9" in the front and rear, and Orion 12" sub, and a kenwood 300 watt amp. Simple yet great sounding.

never tested my car but im sure its pretty loud ive got:

alpine head unit 40x4
infinity 4x6 plates front
alpine 6.5s rear
boston acoustics tweeters rear
2 12" mtx blue thunder extreme
2 10" mtx blue thunder extreme
Crunch 1200x1 amp
mtx crossover

loud enough to set off car alarms at the mall and has made my rearview mirror and sun visors fall offnumerous times. :D

I use to run 2 of the MTX Blue Thunder Legends..they were silver with the blue logos....the best looking subs they put out IMO. I don't care for their new design....looks kinda cheep now.

except for their new high end sub. that 15" one thats red and black. man i want one of them sooo bad. :D
