They say that 120db is the treshhold for pain.

This is incorrect!

I can tell you 1st hand listening to something for a minute at 113-117 will end in a headache. I've had it for over an hour now..


I did some rewiring and different placement of my rt3000s and thus the problem.


Damn them Polk people!!:)

rt3000s = the best 400 I ever spent!

How did you score your 3000p's for so cheap?

I agree.. 111db and above will give you a headache. i've only listened to a movie that loud a few times before.

Everyone experiences pain at different sound pressure levels. My old car had two 10's capable of 140+dBs, and me and buddies would drive around with no problems. I did notice pain when I sat in a car, that was metering around 154 dB.

I was lucky enough to score rt3000s, rt800is and a psw450 for 700 at CC. All open box of course. What a christmas present to myself!:)

i can easily average 110 in my living room but damn it will make you wince every time a bullet flys by.
in my jeep i can easily hit 130 clean with only one 10 sealed...

As my name might imply I like to fish a lot.

I have 4 6 1/2s and 2 10"s subs in my 18 foot flats boat. Ill have to get a reading on it though. I'm sure it wont be too impressive considering its open air and all.

it all fits snuggly in this lil beaut!

So, what type of music do the fish like?

Im a skinny water fisherman so theres no tunes on when Im fishing, its only on when getting from point a to b. Oh and blasting of course during the shotgun starts at tournies.:)

Nothing like going 70 mph on the water listening to tunes!:)
