The newly set IASCA world record IDBL filtered @167dB and moving

Upon concluding his phone call with Mr. Harold Jaffee- IASCA president, Dave Rupp of (Audio Advisors in Alaska) contacted us with the news; news of a new SPL record blah blah blah... At first, we were not impressed since we hear about "a new record" every other day. We know very little about the rules of sound offs, but believe me we know everything about amps and speakers. We were under the impression that the world record was somewhere in the mid 170's, we were even told once about some measurements in the 180's... Now that you are confused then listen to this:

In the past IASCA, USAC, DBdrag and other organizations had an open policy when it came to SPL measurements. This year all of these organizations introduced the restricted bandwidth classification. These newly adapted rules are very similar among these sanctioning bodies. What they have in common is the restriction of the subwoofer bandwidth to be lower than 100 Hz.

Competition Facts:
It was the maiden voyage of the 1992 Chevrolet crew cab dually owned and operated by Dave Rupp, from the Audio Advisors of Fairbanks Alaska. Dave and crew, "Team Outlaw Audio" had just finished the Dually and took it out for a test run. What better opportunity to test than an IDBL sanctioned event. When the dust settled the guys had lots to be happy with. A new record... 167 dB at the dash! This was confirmed by IASCA officials as the current standing IDBL world record. (The previous record was recorded at 164 dB.) This is a filtered measurement under 100Hz.

The thrust of the system is sixteen Earthquake 15 inch Magma's, driven by eight 200DHC's. The power supply is balanced with 16 heavy duty batteries and six 1 farad caps. Look for photos and more information here coming soon. Team Outlaw Audio currently holds all Alaska state SPL records, IDBL, USAD, Outlaw SPL, etc. the team says "We're after the World Record!"
