another comon sence question anyone could anser

Post by cornilion »

i have 2 12's in a ported box 500rms combined.(in a oldsmobile intrigue)

buddy has 2 10's 400rms same brand in ported box (dodge caravan)

im wondering wich one is louder.(iv never been in his van yet)

i herd some 10's before but i find they just dont have that thunder feel and low end... is it quite certain my system will blow his out of the wind wen it comes down to like deep sound and overall trumble or the car and all???

will his 2 10's be louder to the ear and mine just more like feel the ground shake.. r will mine be louder and his not?

The install has alot to do with it. Just check his out and see what you both think. 10's can play deep and low also. I have an Fi Audio 10 with 600rms on it and it plays the low end very well.

In theory, Your car should be louder.

1, cabin gain. Your car is smaller.
2, 100 wrms more. Though not to audiable.

Thanks.

We like to think so.

Most of us call it home. I do.
