Somehow I doubt that! The dB scale is a logarithmic scale. That means that a sound pressure level difference of 3dB is TWICE as loud! 10dB would be a huge difference!

akbjr is infamous around these partsakbjr is infamous around these parts
here is one I made prior to the sharkwerks install. I can confirm that some of the throatiness is missing.

Thanks! That definitely helps me compare the different tones. I hear a littler higher pitch with the SW Bypass, with a much raspier note to it. It just sounds a littler 'angrier'. I like it...

Thanks and folks with the PSE really do seem to dig it when combined with our center section!

I'm planning on coming by Monday afternoon after some meetings in San Ramon to check out the place and hopefully get to hear one in person...something tells me my pocketbook will also be taking a little hit before I head out as well

I was in the East Bay today and took a few minutes to stop by SharkWerks...was a real pleasure getting a chance to meet Alex and team, and getting a quick tour of the garage (and seeing the well-known Kermit in it's green glory). I can't wait to get my Bypass in and get it installed.

Thanks to Alex for the tour, I'll make sure to wear my SW tee and let that sweet sound come out for all to enjoy.

Aw thanks man and just glad you like it. I think between you and few of the other PSE-guys you've found a good use for the pipes:P

That's so good to hear man. The PSE+Shark-pipe crowd is a unique club indeed:P
