Park and pound is a compition, meter is placed 6 feet away from the vehicle and the competitor must play for a set amount of time. The score is an average score or peak score, canna remember.


Almost the same as gallery but replace the judges with a meter.

3 yrs ago was the last time i competed in spl , dat was an iasca sanctioned mk show .
i did 148.1 on the meter with 1 dd 9515 , 3 batteries , 1x140 amp xs power alt and a cactus 5k ........ and there are ppl locally dat who do over 150db with 1x15 sub ..... 147.4 is not bad but for your electrical system and d amount of power u running i would have expected your score to be higher ..... probably yuh box was d problem or it cud be d frequency u burped at wasn,t correct .......... .......

bump..............

[- Rovin's car audio -]

no mention of what burp freq

was kinda expecting closer to d 150 mark with how that van sounds in d arena but still thats not a bad score at all

a panel van's interior is bigger than a normal vehicle , it may have possible air leaks around d sliding doors & front doors & then with how they measure with d meter being placed at d headrest are factors to consider too

overall : decent score ....

[computercentral]

well i did not push the system to full potential played the system on volume 16 as not to harm the system. Just was curious as to the spl of said vehicle . 40 to 50 hertz in the arena it is played at volume 20 to 22 hehe

[- Rovin's car audio -]

deck only goes up to 30 or 40 ? & it was a 40-50 sweep u did ?

if ur new at it : spend some time on a meter to find that peak freq sweet spot & some practice\experience burping ur system

if u play 22 on music then 22 or little more for about 3 seconds needed for a burp shud not harm anything ...

[nervewrecker]

yup, you can drop a tad bit more power on the sub for a short period without causing harm.
Also practice burping when the coils cold not hot from after play / demo in the arena. Hot coil = impedance rise & less power delivered to the sub as a result.

[Audiotec20]

This system is really nice and sounded really good.Did the spl check for this vehicle and was impressed although I didnt believe it was pushed to it full potential since the owner said it was the first time he actually tested the vehicle. BTW his score gave him first place in his class so congrats to him.. Hope to see you at the nex event..

bro your system is perfect : sometimes u may not hit high in the meter however main tonalquality & i guess that is the difference right there
jus my two cents'

[TEAM ADT]

Hello,

Hey guys, just some food for thought,

What's the difference with spl in music vs sine wave?

What's the most important factor for spl? (IASCA spl training participants?)

What difference does the vehicle(both prepared and unprepared?) make for your final score?

Answer these questions, and you got your reason why the van is musically loud, but not hit a high score on spl.

Thanks.

[hi rollaz]

A nice spl meter demonstration:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=

[kurpal_v2]

^^ That vid made no sense whatso ever except that the meter is a pressure sensor..

[hi rollaz]

Right..the video is meant to show that loudness and spl are not the same, you can build a box to be audibly loud , but it doesn't produce enough pressure to register high on the meter.

[noyztoyz]

glad to see MECA did something that showed that judges ears who trying to differentiate 135 dbs from 135.5 dbs can be replaced by a meter,

the day this is implemented in the arena in popular shows here would be a change towards the better







u ever see a judge stand up 2 feet in front demolition van and then 2 feet in front predator and try to say who bass louder?? retarded.

anyway sorry to go off topic,
this single 15 is gonna make a higher score next time he burps

[computercentral]

this spl stuff will do it again for fun

But will try to be in single sub for now

the van is built to play music with doors open so will stick to that

[who s next]

heard this van in rienzi sunday
i must say even more impressive good job fellas keep it up"

[computercentral]

thanks man but we failed during the competition .........

[meccalli]

This my friends, is why if you want tl numbers aim for compression, and not i can hear this 5miles away. Proper spl cars- you won't experience anywhere near the (sound pressure level' on the outside compared to the dash.

system for sale 784 9446
