51" subwoofer...

Did anyone happen to catch the mythbuster show with the big 51"er? It was actually a 51" cone, driven by a crankshaft placed on the driveshaft, causing it to pump up and down. They were trying to prove whether or not a system could damage a car. It made around 165db at 16HZ!!!! It self-destructed after popping the sunroof out... They also had some pretty cool coverage of the db drag at Daytona.. I saw a system rip a newspaper that was in the pass. seat to shreds...

Re: 51" subwoofer...

the top SPL systems can produce quite a bit of sound pressure

I'm not really into the huge systems like that, but it awesome watching the mirrors falling off 'n' the wiper blades jumping clean off the windshield!

Re: 51" subwoofer...

I think MTX and some laboratory built a huge sub that did some outrageous numbers. It was like 100,000 watts or something.
