I think I can drop 1 tweet to play with you.

It is geared for my set-up exactly & also the Old School factor as mentioned by Wayne.
BTW, Thanks Wayne!

For anyone who is interested in more of my suggestion for a security part of Psychlone competition:
I searched through my U-Haul box of different old car audio mags & came across this:
Preparing for IASCA Security Competitions: Auto Sound & Security, Oct 1993 issue.
It is a 4 page article, but I will mention the major points (ask me if further info is needed):
Systems in competing vehicles are graded on their physical or personal protection capability, electronic protection, defeatability and quality of installation. In addition, bonus points are awarded to systems for unique convenience functions and creativity of the installation.
* I am aware that some may be uncomfortable to reveal their security, but it can be optional for extra points. I was thinking if anything, being this is all about loudness, the overall loudness of the alarm system (interior & exterior).

No offense, but what does an alarm have to do with an audio competition?
Do alarm stuff, might as well have a neon competition, hydraulics, body mods, and a dyno shootout to the scoring.

Because audio & security go hand-in-hand.
What good is a custom audio system if just anyone can take it without any security. Reward in extra points in a audio comp for going the extra mile to protect with security has been for IASCA & USAC back in the days.

It is a discussion & I am just discussing a point for extra points.
I am all for 'getting back on topic' now that I have made my statement.

If anyone should know, it should be you.
BTW, I changed it from "LOUD SQL set up!" to "LOUD Psychlone!!"

Be careful. Your truck just might 'GoPoof'.

It might, but the RTA curve would look like poop considering it wouldn't play above 14k.
Getting bass at 136 dB is one thing...the easy thing. Getting 136 dB of midrange and treble is a whole new ball game. And one that it seems like is going to be a difficult one for a lot of people to learn how to play really well.

That's a good good good suggestion. All speakers must be located and mounted inside the cabin of the vehicle.

That stops the mounting of horns underneath the vehicle and "boom boxes" being placed in the windows.
