This is not good, because this is a danger to emergency workers, and yes the fire department is being disturbed, since the sirens are not able to heard when there are emergencies!.
It was the best of times in the 90’s…The elders of the generation had Elvis that they loved and had conversations the same way…Cruising in the Mini Truck slammed with deep dish rims and the Snugtop lid open…Wouldn’t trade those memories for anything…..
@@themaddrummer8341You can put the fire department in danger, and then it’s serious, because emergency sirens are a necessity, I don’t want an accident to occur where somebody crashes into an emergency vehicle!.
Dang this brings back memories. I used to work at A&G customs and that was Al's Vette with the gold plated amps. There was also a shot of the old Kicker van with 9 18's and 9 Linear power 5002's that we had for a while. We'd cruise up and down Hollywood Blvd on Friday nights advertising for the shop, I got to drive the Kicker van which was so fun. I miss the old days.
I fell in love with bass in I first heard it in 1992. I was 14 visiting my dad, awakened in amazement to the sounds of the boom coming from the neighbor’s car early in the morning playing Baby Got Back wondering “what the f*** is that sound?!” and was hooked ever since. And still a bass head today at 45.
I remember it clearly too! But freshman year in high school. Guessing 1987. Walking from the bus I swore the ground was shaking from a low rider pickup. I told myself, I want that!
@@shawnthomas7404 You care enough to respond so yea, you care, if you didn't you would have kept that yelper closed and moved along with your own business, son.
@@shawnthomas7404Going to have to agree with you. Only one person cares about his 10KW and that him. Starved for attention. 10KW of sub par entry level peak power.
Thank gosh Boom Cars are finally getting the representation they deserve. There's been so few old skool videos about it around on here and its good to see it. Even if you're into what's going on now, its important to know where your culture comes from.
Bought my first amp in 83 for my 82 Z28, a Sanyo 100w. And to this Day... I'M STILL BUMP'N‼️I really miss my 84 Cutlass that had 4 Cerwin Vega 12's being pushed by a Pyramid Gold and later by Autotek 1200's in 97. Those were the Days.
@@hazeltonsounddotcom yeah I don't think a system will really cause damage to your hearing unless you're giving a constant full db bass tone as you drive around everyday.
I had Four Kenwood 18s, Four 12 inch Cerwin Vegas, Four MTX 10s and Four M&M 8s. Running off a bank of 4 Rockford Fosgate Punch 150's. Not a lot of power, but it did the trick. Lot of fun times back in the day. We weren't trying to hurt anybody, we were just cruising and profiling! LOL I had a buddy with a 1,000 Watt swap meet special that really did have a lot of power and blew quite a few speakers. I loved cruising the Vegas strip every weekend. You saw all kinds of cars and trucks that were rolling artwork! We were in clubs and did a lot of charity events and it was a great time! I liked the punchy bass a lot better than the doomey bass, so I could dial in whichever set I wanted at the time. I also wanted good sound clarity too at a decent volume because at some point you want to hear the rest of the music notes. ;)
That's BS about hearing loss because out of all the bass I listened to 25 years ago, I can still hear perfectly fine.It's the high frequency that kills your ears. Im 57 years old now.
Is all coming back all over again 🤔 time to bass out. I'm big Rocker Fosgate stereo system need more than 2000watts plus is good for me I miss 1990- 1999 high school and my kid's was born. Great times
I had 2000 watts on 4 kicker 10s behind the seat of my standard cab Chevy pickup in 98. That thing slapped. 42 years old now and I have 4000 watts to 1 10 and it beats hard. I love pulling up next to the younger kids and still showing them what's up in my lifted truck. 😂 I also install and help any kid in the neighborhood that asks. Gotta keep it alive and hope they pay it forward too!
That's my generation x .got a g37 coupe and yes it has a system . I learn how to install modified and look great. Just a hobbiest at a professional level.
I've been a car audio fanatic since I started driving in 1992 and I can tell you why. Because it's fun. Everyone needs a hobby and it's one of mine due to my love of music and the high-quality reproduction of it. Next, all the dorks in this video don't know anything about girls or how to meet 'em. Anyone trying to be "cool" has some things to learn. BTW, I don't blast my stereo at red lights or act like a d-bag because I believe in mutual respect for my fellow human.
lot of interesting things in this video...old people complaining, who got the cars, who's dancing to the music from the cars, who looks like they have the money, who doesn't.
In 1990 a Punch 45 $250 for around 200 watts. Today you can buy 2500 watts for the same price. In a way that shows how that great hobby has lost some of its character & creativity. I miss those days. Car audio , sadly has been replaced with ear buds and iPhones by this current generation of young adults.
I’m 51 and still enjoy this great hobby. The late 80’s, early 90’s was the peak of car stereo.

imagine Elvis slapping on 6 12s
It all started in the 80z n not the 90z.
Peak civilization right here... we grew up so good. Prove me wrong. I miss the 80's and 90's...
I watched this when it first aired. Then, went out and promptly bought my first car audio system. Oh to be 18 again...
I've been bassing since 1993. Love it!
Same here. My current system hits 151db. My hearing is fine.
You have no respect for the rights of other people!.

I've been into car audio since high school, and I still enjoy beating the block down at age 40.
Ha !! Im 60 ! And still have it in both my rides😂

My cousin got me into bass back in the late 80s, so when I started driving, I started bassing 😁
Been into car audio since High School in 89 freshman yr, saw so many cars booming coming into school!~
This brings back so many memories been bassen since 1988. Used to be $1.00 per watt back then
Im 40 lol still beatin the block down lol😂

120db 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 We really thought that was loud back then!!! @5:59
Back in the day the old people didn’t get us with stereos nowadays the young people don’t get us. I’m 43 and still love bumping
I have been into car audio since 1986
I bet you're hearing is perfectly fine, I'm not being facetious.
@marke.8334 - I’m 51 now, walled 4th order & hearing was great until a surgery knocked out my left ear! Not the audio system.
@@hazeltonsounddotcom yeah I don't think a system will really cause damage to your hearing unless you're giving a constant full db bass tone as you drive around everyday.
The 90s and early 2K was imo the peak of Car Audio
i agree with you
Facts 💯
Facts!
I’ve had no less than four 12’s in my cars since 1993. Now I have over 20k watts and ripping panels apart. Subbing never gets old
33 years ago it was 1990. 33 years before 1990 was 1957. 😮
Whoever had that power 1000 it's worth some money
ahh bringing back my memories of ordering my Blaupunkt deck from Crutchfield & my Sneakers from Eastbay
I had Four Kenwood 18s, Four 12 inch Cerwin Vegas, Four MTX 10s and Four M&M 8s. Running off a bank of 4 Rockford Fosgate Punch 150's. Not a lot of power, but it did the trick.

Love that this was produced by Ethel Bass
This is the episode that got me hip back in the day
I’m convinced everyone interviewed under the age of 30 is one hell of a grandparent
The lady with the red afro is a legend
John stossels mustache has aged like fine wine.

They were all listening to my posses on Broadway
Sir-mix-alot😎
6:29 oh man, Danny McBride hasn't aged one but 😂😅
I remember when this aired on TV
It was the best of times and it was the best of times.
Damn, I wish my grandma was Ethel Bass
Jeez this is awesome, too think 600 watts was a lot back then too
See, the old lady said they blasted the "Rock Music," not rap. 😂
They park, they try to pick up girls
Anything that can't be played on their 78 rpm record player is rock music.
I had a s-10 lowrider with 8 mtx terminator 15’s in the bed with 2 kenwood 1020 powering the subs with 8 6 1/2 mids
That's my generation x .got a g37 coupe and yes it has a system . I learn how to install modified and look great. Just a hobbiest at a professional level.
I was 17 years old then.
Im 19 got into car audio at 17 lol
It’s changed a bit since this!!
Hope you enjoyed this bass history lesson.
5:02 the true 1st generation Karen
Always spent my cash on going fast,, never had money for audio
This 20/20 segment 0:42 was produced by Ethel Bass, how appropriate :P
Those crazy kids 😂
When people yell loud and get mad because its to loud i love turning it louder 😂
The lady at 5:03 is priceless.
@6:24 Turns out Stossel was wrong about the headphones. You're way more likely to damage your hearing from sustained headphone use...
Back when it was over 4 dollars a watt
I wish we could do it now I miss it
I programmed my parents VCR to catch this episode 😂
Me too!!!
@7:24 The sobering reality that he too is now old.
Dude is that fucking John Stossel? LMAO. Either way these we're the glory days. I need to get my hard body Nissan setup with a period correct setup
I used to have this in my car and now I’m one of the “old people”. 😂
I still got it @ 51
