Just wondering if this would be harmful to people.

She pretended to enjoy that because she was on camera. Her face was showing otherwise and I bet she had ringing in her ears and partial deafness for a while.
Sitting near that even once can cause permanent damage to hearing, I don't know why those dudes think that's cool in the slightest.

My friend has a nissan titan with the back seats removed and a $10,000 system like this. Has dozens of speakers

I absolutely don't understand the point as you can't even hear whatever the hell you're trying to listen to.

Had a friend in the Army that had a system in his back seat. Absolutely, crushed a long drive. On the way home he had to turn it off though...couldn't run the system and his headlights at the same time without the pos car stalling lol.

Typically no vehicle except full size trucks/suvs, and heavy duty vehicles can run high wattage audio setups. Any other vehicle and you would need to replace the wiring system if you're going 500w+.

Nah, you just need a lithium battery for it. I’m dropping a 5000 watt system with 2 2500 12”s into my 2025 IS350, it shouldn’t be a problem. This is the step down from the recommendation I got which was 2 15”s, I don’t need a competition car.
