Don't forget there is another catagory of competition other than SPL.
Does anyone have any trophies from SQ or SPL??

I had various trophies for the company Integra over the past 4-5 years. Mostly from local * provincial competitions, nothing sanctioned of course. I don't like those comps personally. I only enter the SQ or SQ+ portions of the comps.

I personally don't find any satisfaction in trophies for myself, I would much rather have my customers winning them.

My trophies include going bald (and what's left is gray) and lots of scars on my hands. ------------- Support the12volt.com

Does the store with the most hot women coming in count for anything?

Umm... I don't know bout that whole balding, graying hair kinda thing, but I don't have any trophies yet, as I have gone to any comps yet.
And yes, Rob, hot women DO count.

Really?? I'm cranking out 'bout 146dB with 1 Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1D (2 ohms) with a PPI PCX 1200 (500 watts RMS)in a sealed 1.25 cubic ft box. And it's tuned for SQ!

Paul, I have used those subs before and If you are metering 146 I have to question the accuracy of the meter. I have 3 first place trophies for SPL and one Second Place for SQ. I ran 4 pioneer 12's and Pioneer Rev Components. I used a HCCA 425 for the subs and a Micro Dimension 702 for my highs. All that was routed through a Audiocontrol 3.1 I also have to point out that I used a 9cubic foot ported box

All i can say is the term lab is a very tight mic. dosent measure peaks at certin frequencies, it truly measures pressure. All I can say is right now using 2 10 inch eclipse 7100 series in a 1.5 cuft per sub box, vented to 38 hz with a freq in car at around 43 hz we are hitting 144.7db
