I just installed a 12" + 450watt amp... How many of you have blown a window?

Ok, so I just installed this pioneer 12" sub, beautiful box and a 450watt amp... all wired up and it is so CRAZY!!!! :-)

But, how many of you have blown your hatch window, what were you pushing and for how long?

You'll need a lot more than that before you have to worry about popping a window.

Thanks :-)

Was just worried since the box takes up most of the hatches truck space and doesnt close if it is moved like half an inch back lol....

It is a perfect fit, ill have to take a pic sometime...

I was running twin 12" competition MTX audio's with 600w each 2ohm. The sound preassure was so intinse it broke my sunroof latch. But not a window.... I got the cops called on me alot working on my system in my dad's driveway at 3am. lol.

Bass test cd's are crazy.

i honestly would have stolen your set up and sold it for mcdonalds happy meal, if you did this to me.

I heard a while ago of a guy who had a fairly weak 12" that DID bust the rear window...it's pretty rare, and I'm not sure how it happened. I assume it was some sort of freak accident where the volume and frequency of the bass was just right to blow the glass. Kinda odd, but it could happen. I wouldnt worry about it though.

[Looneybomber]

It's possible to crack/break a window due to flexing of the roof and other parts of the car, but to "blow it out" just doesn't happen. Something else on the car will fail first, unless your window is poorly mounted, which itself poses a safety problem.

How does on 12" take up all of your trunk?

[Acecool]

The box is HUGE... so the THUMP is crazy...

It actually causes my radar detector to DANCE if it is turned up...

I have bass on -6 treble on +6 and fade on +2 and it is still rough...
