Something to bug the neighbours with.

Found the following on talkbass.

Thought it might interest a few people on here.

Edit: I suppose the flip side to that is of course the Amp/s needed to power the thing, now that must be a scary sight too.

[Left Shoe]

holy ****.

[Radiobass81]

Wow.

[Hardinge]

my god
i want one

wait wat would be the point of having a speaker that big

[bleeding_fingers]

Of course, it's got to be MTX.

[the101er]

Hmm, I could see that killing a few children if you put them near enough

EDIT: "I bet it'll be on Pimp My Ride in a couple of months" :lol:

[Left Shoe]

i showed it to my guitarist friend , he sent this back

They are going to be used in demolition!! just plug in and blow the house down.

You could test to see if your earplugs are capable of withstanding a rocket launch. lol.

[Hardinge]

it would be cool to have both

[Worrpigs]

i want! screw 15 or 18 inchers, gimme the 60!

[Hardinge]

u could really piss ure band mates off with that

[Klander Brigade]

Reminds me of Back to the Future

[muthafunkabass]

60 inches is for n00bs. Squier FTW!


:p

[sixner]

....why?

maybe it's to see if we put people on the moon, if they can hear us.. kind of like a loud speaker, ya know?

-Sixner

[Omega Red]

where is the input jack???!!?!??!?!?!

[thelowsoundofbass]

That thing would kill you in less that a minute at 180dbls. You body tissue starts to break down at 160 dbls. I bet that it could break bones.

lowsound

[Thonk]

That's ridiculous.

[Untitled]

Seriously? Whats the point?

I wonder though, if like on back to the future, if they stand infront of it and put it on full volume and play, if they get threw 100 foot.

[trumpeter]

I wonder what the air area needed for that would be...

[BassVirtuoso]

How awesome would it be to have a bass solo that spanned 10 miles.

[trumpeter]

It would be approximatley as awesome as one of my orgasms listening to Jean Baudin.

[British Kid]

is that what it goes up to? or the only db level that it has? i found the article a little confusing in the wording....

[BassVirtuoso]

I guarantee you someone at talkbass is going to buy it.

[janyeno]

"Betchya 5 bucks that thing will be on Pimp My Ride in a few months."

:lol:

[Thonk]

I'm pretty sure that's what it goes up to. Not just the set level.

[Hardinge]

is there somekind of health warning with this thing

[metal_bassist88]

is there somekind of health warning with this thing

yeah i didnt read it properly but it was something like 'stand well back'

[BassVirtuoso]

It's not like it will be sold, it's just the result of rich white guys with too much time on their hands.

[PaulR]

Know what else would bother the neighbours?

wow

u can really do some damage to people with loud nosies

[metal_bassist88]

did you see how early on the list damage to human hearing is?!!?!? thats crazy

[LewsTherin]

Damage will only really occur with prolonged exposure at 85db, its not instantaneous.

[metal_bassist88]

where 320db will :)

[Pluperfect_Arson]

That's just incredibly ridiculous.

[Carpe Noctis]

I bet Hotblack Desiato from DISASTER AREA would want a speaker that big...25 of them, because they have to keep up their reputation as the loudest band in the universe...

That's a huge effing speaker.

[Pastorius]

People never take into consideration the fact that decibels is a logarithmic scale.

That thing is LOUD.

[Hardinge]

how loud do u think a gig would be

[Pastorius]

how loud do u think a gig would be

120 maybe.

[tim_commerfordism]

LMFFAO.

Imagine slapping on that thing. with distortion, on the top of a large building. ace way to rule the earth.
i bet they have something like a behringer bass head powering it, though.

[da_s_man13]

Using an octave pedal through that would be orasgmic...

[hellonearth07]

It's not like it will be sold, it's just the result of rich white guys with too much time on their hands.

exactly why you become a rich white guy just like Michael Jackson did

[EADG]

You guys only have 4x12's? I have a 4x60.

Thats true heavy metal my friend. \m/($.$)\m/

You literally destroy the audience.

[da_s_man13]

You wouldnt have to trash the gear on the stage after a gig.....

[Criss Frantic]

There'd be no stage. I can't wait for a B grade movie to come out called "The Speaker That Destroyed Them All". Alec Baldwin can play the part of the speaker.

[Thumper]

if you by 2 you would propably make there house explode

[Criss Frantic]

Here is an exact chart.

I just read through that, and it got more and more disturbing the furthed down I got. Sound is kickass!

[katana_manatee]

One thing to remember folks is every 6db the volume is doubled.

[MasterofBass]

Reminds me of Back to the Future


Damn, beat me to it!!!


But that definitley would be sweet. Also I think that's a speaker capable of blowing off a woman's clothing like on the Italian Job

I'd also use that to blow enemy armies away, and also the audience. \m/


i'd also think you'd need a forklift to move that thing to gigs

[BenJammin]

That is so awesome in a completely unpractical way.

If they had worked it so that it went up to 190db, they could've caused an earthquake with it. :lol:

[hellonearth07]

i thought for sure it was 3 dB it doubled??? Maybe i'm wrong, but i'm pretty sure its 3

[Hardinge]

it seems physics as taken over this post

[ebe9]

It is every 3dB that it doubles

[thelowsoundofbass]

i thought for sure it was 3 dB it doubled??? Maybe i'm wrong, but i'm pretty sure its 3

3.2ish.

lowsound

[hellonearth07]

i thought it was. we just did this one lesson in math with logarithm's and worked it out. Alotta ppl were surprised when they found out it was bassically exponential growth and it doubles every 3ish dB. Just for ****s and giggles i think i'm gonna find where i have the exact nuumber written down
