[QUOTE="pro-rabbit, post: 7590561, member: 551878"] There is so much meh in this post. I'm sorry, but when I have more time on monday if I remember I will come back and address this a bit. However, bottom line is the industry went the direction of power. So the trend of everyone wanting far to much is what is going on. Since that is what people want, why would we try and change their mind? If some one wants to run 10krms why does that make them wrong? A 500rms system won't be that loud at any point in its life. You can make large rms systems sound great if you choose to. I do agree that with the current trend of power the emphasis of the install has declined greatly. It is no longer about putting in work to get the correct enclosure and such, and more about well it is not loud enough...lets add more power to get there. Which is fine to me. It is keeping this hobby alive and going, so no reason to subject everyone that wants just that to negativity of what once was. Also, many of us do not remember how bad electrical system suffered before. Even with 1k rms which was very common in the 90's, our electrical options were limited and that created tons of issues. Which is how actually managed to get where we are today. People realized we can have custom batteries, alts, and wire. Then came in more power. Then subs followed suite to handle the power. [/QUOTE]
