sound quality, if it is loud enough to spider web a windshield there is no quality only pressure

Re: Your Car Audio System

And you dont need much sound pressure to "spider crack" a windshield. Anyone who knows car audio knows its almost impossible to crack glass that hasnet already had a crack in it.

Im not going to say you didnt hit 147db cause i did it with 2 10 yo subs and 75 rms to each, in a sealed box. Its not sound pressure you need to crack glass its frequency.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.
