How many watts

[Pimped Out 4 LYF]

How many watts should a sub have to set off alarms as you pass by.. vibrate ur neighbors window, and be heard from a block away? Just want to know about how many watts it takes to do that, i dont want huge numbers i doubt it takes 1000 rms, or maybe it does i dont know. Just one powerful 12 or 10, how many watts? Thanks

it will definately take alot, i have 600 rms going to 2 12s and it doesn't set off alarms. my sound pretty much stays in my car. it seems to be well insulated.

I had a thousand watts for two fifteens in my old car and it rattled peoples windows. So I would say around a thousand should do it.

It all depends on the system you are running and how it is setup. You can make alot out of a little if it is setup right

Been done with 100 watts RMS... Thats like asking how much horsepower it will take to do a quarter mile in 12 seconds without specifying the vehicle/setup.

My friend had 600 watts running to two audiobahn 12's and if we parked next to people in a parking lot, turned it up real loud, and opened the trunk it would set off alarms

the real question is ...... WHY

[Pimped Out 4 LYF]

to piss off neighbors we dont like :P

2 words... noise pollution.

[Pimped Out 4 LYF]

its not pollution if you only play it loud to piss your neighbors off then turn it down after you passed by them lol

would 2 polk momo 12's do the trick or maybe 2 eclipse aluminums 12", i doubt 12" alpine type R's can do this with only 300rms each, hmm maybe Diamond Cw3's or M6's :P

I say a couple of brahma 15's with like a 1200.1
