perhaps you didnt read my profile.     I tested it via an amp meter and volt meter with it hooked in my car with well over 10,000 amps of burst discharge availible.

and 151 with 4 12 l7s      

myself 154.1 with 2 10 l7s      thank you come again

next time know who you are calling out!


You could try for my girlfriend, shes only at 153.1 on 2 12 L7's in a civic coupe, with eveything in the trunk



All setups less then 2500 WRMS, except my finals setup, but that just a measly 9,000 WRMS   Im sure not comparable to your Massive pile of junk!

Ouch. Did that hurt? PWN3D!!!!1!

Yeah, you'll learn that here in this forum there are a few people that we don't question. Jeff happens to be one of those people. If you are getting ONLY 151dB with 3000W and 4 12's, then you have an installation issue, I think. Jeff uses 500W less than that, and gets 3dB hotter than that with a pair of 10's. (And yes, he can prove those numbers...) If you do the math, and we'll assume that your enclosures are perfect, (we'll simply assume that you accidentally stumbled upon Jeff's "super secret" enclosure, and you are using the same alignment as he is...) then the 1000W that Jeff said he spec'd at the show, is a truly accurate number, if not, a bit optimistic.

Me, personally, I am not in any way, shape, or form, an SPL guy, so I can't sell you with any numbers, (don't ask me what my "numbers" are) but we DON'T try to call Jeff's bluff. posted_image

(Sorry, Jeff... had to get your back on this one...)

One thing you need to know about CEA compliance also: It is nothing more than a STANDARD SET OF SPECIFICATIONS. It makes all manufacturers place their gear in the same conditions for testing. It has nothing whatsoever to do with how capable any individual amplifier is, or what it is capable of doing, in a long term situation. It is simply a "yard-stick" for all manufacturers to place their amplifiers next to, so the consumer can see what THAT amp is capable of at THOSE conditions, versus a different amplifer under the SAME situations. I still don't believe it indicates a better amplifier, and I still don't believe they are the end-all-be-all of performance indications.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Other Jeff was in Mexico I think Dave.........(I would never fill someone's voicemail with say ringtones and bananaphone) but this Jeff is also bang on with his results and information  as well. There are indeed some people on this forum that have the necessary background to put their money where there mouth is. Massive for me is a non-player, if it works for you, that's great.

see that was my girl that posted that befor to you jef she didnt know anybetter as you can see shes new at this but i fixed all the missprints ,she messed up on. she did 154db at 4 ohms at 1800rms. ,on the post  the one befor this one i wrote  jef jef jef thats the way u speak to a female lol but she gets afended when you talk bad about her amp lol what do u think would have been a better purchase than the 3000.1 because alot of people claim its very good and does more than what it claims and i think 154 is pretty good on the numbers on 2 12's at basically half of what the amp has to offer. she didnt build it so she wouldent know what it has i build it so let me know jef??

Those stats as posted when made on a term lab sensor in a approved organization result in a sig line like you see from Jeff above. If you have the substance to prove your claim, that's great and welcome to the site. If you cannot, unfortunately you are a claim like we have all seen before. The worst thing that you can do is spread misinformation.

The best part is once the new USACi site is up and running I will have my own personal side site that has all my info pics and stats liste don it. And I can have a nice neat like in my signature
