whats the most bass a car can handle?

Question

i have a 1993 Ford Probe i got two 10in. speakers in the trunk(speaker brand; Punch about 500w ea.)
and thinking about putting two more 10's (sony Xplode)
u think my car can handle it?

Answer 1

the body of the car or the electrical side of the car?? id put another battery in it if youre gonna have a bunch of wattage pumpin through your ride. also get some dynomat so your car doesnt rattle.

Answer 2

Your car will handle it. I have 4 mtx7500 10inch speakers in my trunk powered by a 1800watt amp. my front speakers are powered by a 800watt amp. It handles it just fine. I do encourage you to intall an extra battery (before a power capacitor) or you will have problems with your headlights fading in and out (strobe effect) Because your car is 13 years old, it is going to rattle alot. You should invest in dynomat for the entire trunk, peices of your doors, and maybe even the dashboard (in that order). You should find a way to better secure your dome light as it will rattle alot also.

On another note. The odds of you out handling your car when it comes to loud bass is slim. A problem that some people experience with high end stereo systems is heart faliure do to abnormal rythem. If the bass is loud enough, the vibrations can become so intense that your heart rythem will change to the beat of the music. It has and does kill people. I think the better question would be, "whats the most bass a human body can handle" It would take alot for this type of thing to happen. Of course, If you add two speakers and not another amp, then you shouldnt have any problems. It wont be that much louder anyways. All you will be doing is reducing the stress on each sub. Remember more speakers = more amps

Answer 3

sure your ride will handle it but dont mix speaker models and instead of getting a extra cap which is just something else for your alternator to charge that discharges verry quickly, either get a extra battery or a high output alternator(id do the alt. first) Oh and get 2 more punches dont bother with the sonys, if its not a walkman or a wega tv i wouldnt mess with sony unless it was free

Answer 4

you'll need to dynomat if u haven't already. running more subs isn't going to do any good if u don't have a good power source. The first thing u need is a power capacitor. a capacitor stores and supplies power for your system,so your not draining your battery or over working your alternator. u can pick one up for a bout $100. your sound quality with improve dramatically. I always run a capacitor and an Optima yellow top battery in my cars. Its alot cheaper than replacing burnt out alternators and they look good too.

Answer 5

at about 130dbs expect some problems with the body of the car and windows and electrical problems unless you upgrade the alternator and get extra batt. i have four 15'' solobarics in a impala n my trunk has warped a little bit also my airbag deployment light came on when i first turned up the system and it hasnt turned off since and the back window of my car is getting unglued. so expect some serious problems.

Answer 6

I can fit about 25 lbs of bass in my trunk. I can fit more trout than bass, depending on their size. Pickerel packs nicely, as they are long and slender.

I never heard of sony fish. Are they fun to catch?

Answer 7

yea it take a lot more then that 2 hurt a car

Answer 8

Question is can your neighbors handle it?
