I know this should be in ICE technically but check this out:

320lb, near enough 23 stone in weight.

better make sure it's secured properly, cos if you crash it's gonna make a hell of a mess !!!

Impressive, but come on, where's the point?

I see no need for anything other than 1 Vibe 12".

Whatever floats your boat I guess

2.5 inches of cone movement

Thats the kind of sh*t that should come with a health warning - you get too close to that and, seriously, it's going to cause bodily harm. Don't even think of touching it. 12kW of peak output is more electricity than most people ever simultaneously use ... we're talking sixteen horsepower. You'll have to set your engine at a 2000rpm idle just to run it.

i bet the club i work in has less woofer power than that, and you can fit 1000 people in when the going's good! (and do yourself hearing damage without earplugs.....)

mind you, what a way to go, you'll be buzzing your t*ts off...

(literally?)

I think it would probably destroy most cars smaller and less solidly built than the average rap stars SUV! Remember the Hitchiker's Guide, and Disaster Area? Best listened to at a distance of 10 metres or more...

still sounds like a lot, particularly when banging away 50 times a second or so and packing a lot of horses behind it - i imagine it'd be akin to cutting away the head over one cylinder of an engine and trying to touch the piston whilst it was running

a big engine, for the five-inch job! That's an awful lot of peak pressure ... and should make for some cracking looooow bass as well if its got enough weight on, as its natural oscillation period will be a lot longer.

I can hear my alternator when I'm outside the car if I have it cranked and I've only got 1 12" and 1 amp giving out 400rms

I had approximately 800w RMS running when I had my system in my car and to me that was incredibly loud so I can't imagine what that must be like.

Once I pick the Polo up and get the money together, I'll have 1200rms running through, and I'm sure I'll want more! :twisted:

Yeah should be good. Thing I found with the Polo was it rattled a bit if I had it cranked up full and I even had a load of sound deadening in the boot, rear quarters and doors. When I get my next car i've got quite a system planned...;)
