Hey guys im abit of a car audio buff,just wondering if any of you guys have had ur stereos metered for SPL?

Nope, not yet, I probably could but I've gotta get myself some nice splits and another amp to back them up first.

Yes i am very interested to find this out as well hooli! I wont be up there, my best run is a 141.8 using an L7 12",Audison LRX1.400 at 1 ohm, and a Very large slot port enclosure

**** thats a fair score Grant.. if u were in melb id grab that box n L7 off you..lol

is that 141 decibels, was it just a bass test or something??

My stereo made 128.6db at Autobarn Slacks Creek. This is with one Pioneer 12" and a Pioneer amp giving it 140RMS. Big upgrade soonish (read: as soon as I can afford it) and I'll post the update.

My car will be ready to run for the sound off set up around here in a month, ill keep you informed, ive won a few throphys for other installs ive done, so im hoping mine will be a winner PS im in the 1500+ pro class

Sweeet, let us all know Matt if you win another trophy Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Dont worry i will tell you guys for sure!!

mine made 99dB.. $250 fine... so i had to put some more resinators in :P.. oh.. your talking about stereos... GO MATT!!

hehehe See what this time of the morning is doing to you Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

WEll i havent set the stereo up in mine yet but it is a transplant out of my old car which was set up as an spl car havent quite worked out how to install it yet but we have come up with a few ideas. In the old car i ran a 158.6db at a sound off up here in canberra and at a few other soundoffs i havent been able to get a reading because there crappy metres only went to 150db. This was using 4 Clarion 15" Subs and 4 Clarion 4x1000w rms Amps Running all off a Clarion head unit which was crap and about $2500 worth of Battery and Phoneix Gold wiring. So it will be interesting to see if we can get something close out of the VL.

Sounds sweeet Smooth VL, did you have any pics of your audio system in the old car? Cheers Mick Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That is not overly impressive. Considering u have A modified interior including removal of the back seats 4x15" subs, and its a hatchback. my 8db less was racked up from a single amp,single 12" not 4x15", no interior mods at all, all of the back seats in place etc. AND IT WAS A SEDAN.

what specs was it grant 2? also was that in a vl??

Well i got 119db From Kenwood 7x10's and alpine 6 inch three ways running off the headunit..with a JVC 12 inch which i got for free on an 400W amp Ok for spending little money 400 bucks max
