the car audio experts at best buy

Recommended Posts

So my wife started working at best buy a few weeks ago and i go in today and start talking with the guy in the car audio section and apparently "the loudest sub in the world is a kicker solo x because it has the highest sensitivity of any sub, 92db." and the worlds loudest vehicle is in houston tx pushing an astounding 320 db with 3 kicker solo x's. going on to say that reaching 200db is fairly easy and that his vehicle with 2 kicker L7s is at almost 100db. i couldnt tell whether i was crying or laughing on the inside. The image some people think of that you watch some youtube videos, go to an electronics store and get subs, an amp, and a box you like put them in your car and then you somehow know all there is to know about car audio just blows my mind. :trippy:

My stock volvo with a 1.9l inline 4 turbocharged engine makes around 800hp if I use the "good" gas, otherwise it makes 600hp.

The above statement would be scary if I was a mechanic, funny how things work.

The world is full of bullshit, bullshitters, and ignorant people.

Lol like the guy that tried to tell Mr that a polk 600 watt amp will send 600 watts to both my subs, cuz its a myth that amps split up the power. Also, apparently "good" subs will last almost a year if you treat them good. Normal subs are only made to last a couple of months.

He was the manager.....ffs.

Just say "The theoretical limit for sound in our atmosphere is 194db. The only thing that could be louder is a shockwave."

i told him that lol and i cant remember exactly what he said to explain his reasoning but his conclusion was that its not that hard to surpass the noise level of a sonic boom with subs. my wife also told me hes a physics major..i literally almost shat a brick..

Aye thats not bad, my 2.0 Mazda 3 puts out 800hp stock and when I put in my cool air intake, it bumped it to a good 900hp. Let's street race. :yaya:
