[QUOTE="Full Tilt, post: 8500250, member: 640249"] You'd be surprised, actually. I do not own a system nor have I ever owned one that could hold a shirt in the air on it's own; so take my word for what it's worth. But from a factual standpoint, the frequencies you're going to be exposed to at these levels typically vary between 20 and 35 hertz. The human ear is much, much less sensitive to these frequencies as it is something like 500 or even 1000+ hz. A 160db vehicle at 30 hz may be loud; and to some, even painful. But it's not near as painful as 160 db at 2,000 hz would be. Again, this is due to the fact that our hearing is much less sensitive to these lower frequencies. It doesn't affect our ears the same way higher frequencies do. So, again, I don't own one of these systems, so I can't give a direct report. The main point of my post would generally be to say that it's not as bad as you may think. [/QUOTE]
