    Default Scott Ownes hits 181.9 at USACi finals

    Wow!

    181.9!

    Thats just unreal!

    I bet this dude breaks 190 before too long.

    The loudest Ive ever heard was 170 and you could feel the ground shaking thru your feet! I couldnt imagine 182.

    And with Pioneer subs too!!

    Got a link? That's insane, it's got to be shaking loose the rivets and welds in whatever vehicle it's installed in. At what point do you reinfornce the windows?

    Id say youd need to be sticking in plexiglass about 170 db. Ive seen cars hit 165 with stock windshields in but they flex like a mutha.

    No link yet. This just happened this weekend at USACi World Finals in Kansas City and I caught it over the grapevine. Ill post a link as soon as I can find one.

    Here is a little blurb on him on Pioneer's website.

    you start cracking glass at 165ish.

    Thats crazy. Ive been in a vehicle doing 160dB, 180 would actually kill you...
