actually, you'd be suprised at how much damage a HUUUGE sub can do to the actual sound. i'm not saying you got ripped off, but the soundwaves that a subwoofer creates have such a long wavelength, thay're sometimes outside of the car before they complete one cycle. if you have a base kick or something, everyone outside your car will hear it but you won't.

same principal goes for when a pilot is flying faster than the speed of sound, and creates a sonic boom, the pilot can't hear it. the sound waves are behind him.
