BLUE TEXT IS "ME"

FcukThis;whoa! three 10" Solo barics vs. a bazooka ?
Only 15% louder?!

Hm, to me-- that's a hands down bazooka win.

Either way... the Bazooka sounds too good or I'm disappointed with the Solo-Barics

But some things to consider?
1.) What about kick/impact, Do you still get it with the bazooka?

At low to moderate volume Bazooka Tube does ass good as the Solos

2.) How about the rattles, do the solo barics produce any annoying jiggles in the trunk?--I had a pair of subs in my trunk several months back. I loved the way they sounded, but they rattled my car way too much.. Because of it, i hesitated to crank up the volume.

Yes! Solo-Barics shake the car more than the Bazooka

3.) Consider the low end capabilities, which hits lows better. And/or which will produce better sound for the type of music you listen to ?

Bazooka hits the lows better, Solo-Barics handle better the other end; at low-moderate volume the Bazooka satisfies me better, to SHOW-OFF I'll rather have the Solos, I don't know if you get my point?

4.) Power efficiency. Since we're only talking 15% loudness when comparing the two. The bazooka only takes 50watts compared to 200watts per say(I'm making up numbers) to power the solo barics. Less strain on your system.

My amp put out 300 watts:
Bazooka is rated at 300 watts
Solo-Barics are rated 350 watts each
The guru expert guys may explain this better.

5.) Weight, which you have pointed out. I used to drive to school everyday w/ a full load. (me + 4 friends). everytime i would get on the highway, it sounded like my car was going into overdrive.. Just horrible!! Handling...Oh boy, i dont even want to get started. It was hard to merge from lane to lane sometimes.
If the weight difference makes driving unenjoyable, clearly it's a no go!

Add the weight of your deadening, +70 pounds, +groceries, + your family/passengers. I can really see how things would add up.

Yes you got the point!

Me thinking...............
