Re: back window breaking of a 15' sub
More than likely, It WILL NOT break the window. Unless you have a hairline crack, that it can go off of.
If you go to SPL competitions and ask around, if they have ever heard of breaking windows with bass, they will laugh & tell you it is impossible.
The only things I could Imagine seeing going wrong, is:
1. Your latch breaks (holding the hatch shut)
2. The windows seal around your hatch window gets worn and may come apart, But I doubt that too.*Matt

You are not going to break a window. Go to an SPL comp and look at how much the glass flexes in those cars. It's amazing it doesn't break sometimes.

Re: back window breaking of a 15' sub
it'd be my luck, i'd be the 1 in 10,000,000 people...my sub would hit, and a catastrophic black hole warp loop would break open the atmosphere, and all of earth would be sucked into a matterless obiss...
but no, you wont break it...Comment

There wasn't someone nearby playing with a shot gun, was there?
The Mythbusters did a show similar to this. It theory, it is possibly to blow out windows, but you would need sound pressure in excess of 165bD to do so. You are going to need way more than a single 15 to displace that much air.Last edited by Bonemaro; 04-22-2008, 01:24 PM.

A friend of mine has a 20k dollar system in his dakota extended cab truck, and hits mid 160's and hasnt broken any windows.
I agree with bone, It is possible, but very unlikely.*Matt

Re: back window breaking of a 15' sub
Either the seal around the glass or the glass itself had a defect. There's no F-in way. Now, I've seen some CRAZY high numbers from a single 15" (upper 160's), but lets face it. If you were capable of that, you wouldn't be here asking a question like this. lolOriginally posted by Larrymhemenez View PostComment

Insurance would cover that wouldn't it? say the kid next door hit it with a baseball.
besides, you can tell your friends how kick a your sub is, blew your windows out.Comment

No, insurance wont cover that unless you have coverage for glass, and you have a $0 deductable for it... otherwise your paying $250 or $500 deduct, glass wont be that much.Originally posted by zpwn06 View Post*Matt

Re: back window breaking of a 15' sub
It may be different state to state..... and may be only for windshields.... but here in Florida, its covered pretty much no matter what and no deductible is needed. Dead serious. Glass is in a separate category. Truck tosses a rock on the highway and chips your windshield? It's free. With any insurance.Comment
