i agree also....theres a place and time for everything.......i have people all the time pull up to my store with their stereo wide open

,i guess they are trying to prove something.nothing is more aggravating than bass booming when you're not in the mood to hear it.
when someone does that, I walk them to my trophy case and point to my worlds final trophy and say' "you know, in 2001 i had the 3rd loudest stereo system I'm my class in the world.twelve 15's,and over 10,000 watts.you dont have to come driving up with you're two 12's

wide open,I'm not impressed".....that either pisses them off and they don't come back,or they are impressed and show some respect when pulling up to my store....either way its win/win....
