Cr@sh Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 i have never been to a competition and would like to know do people compete with one 15', and are they competitive? There are tons of different leagues and classes, yes there are people competing with a single 15" sub. check here: http://dbdrag.com/dbdrag/rules/2009/rules.asp?Org_ID=1 Quote My old install at cardomain, never finished!

Blackedout Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Run what you brung. Its not about being the best, its going out for the hobby itself. If you enjoy your system, compete. You learn a lot just by competing. Nobody will knock your system unless you're cocky about it. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if you get Ideas on how to make your existing setup louder, just by installing it differently. Good luck man.... Its all in fun.

I think I have more fun buying cheapo equipment and just messing with audio stuff than I would after I installed a 4 grand or so system. Quote SUCCESS is a decision, NOT a dream.

Marlo Stanfield Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Depends on the class you compete in, but yes people do compete with a single 15... I doubt you'll win any world titles with a 15" daily setup, but going to comps is a fun time. Unless you seriously plan to compete, just show up, register, go through the lanes, and have a good time.
