Well if we are playing fantasy world, why stop at 6 15s? since obviously we are using a small enriched plutonium reactor to power 161 dbs for 30 hours, I might as well just use 20.

They didnt tune it, they didnt do anyhting besdies build a sub out of aluminum wedges and an innertube. I bet with some serious research behind it, it could do better.

Which is why no myth is ever busted. They rarely if ever accurately duplicate the 'myths' implied situation and conditions. They just kinda sorta get close.

As for the subs, some straight 120v sine waves would be a nice, violent, and painfull way to dissasemble a vehicle.

Man that was weak, that didn't prove anything excpet you can build a 51" diesel sub. I've seen 6 MTX Blue thunder 12's crack the back glass of an explorer before, and my 2 15's in the back my car put about all the pressure my back hatch windows could probably take without pushing them off the seals. I don't know about shattering the glass all around in a vehicle, but I'd like to be there to see it if it ever does happen.
