What Id need to know about comps

[bigrank916 72]

So Ive been thinking about it and seems like it would be fun. I know nothing about running in comps and would like a little info on how. I know there is a ton of different classes to be in but I dont have a clue about them. Do they go by how much power you run, how many and how big your subs are, or if you have a wall or somethin? I always see these posts about going to shows and you guys make it sound fun.

Id appreciate it if I could get a little rundown on what might be best for me with the stuff in my sig. Any info would be awesome. Thanks guys.

It all depends on what organization you plan on running.

Most of that depends entirely on what organization is running the show. They might go by power, they might go by cone area, some even go by fuse size. Then there are different levels of modification allowed to the vehicle for different classes. So you'd just have to find a show and look at the rules of the organization running it.

X2 on what they said.

Also e sure to check the rules for what kind of music and what format the musics on. Some organizations place the mic at different spots so check that out cuz it makes a difference how you set up your subs/enclosure ect. There are several posts/threads on here with some tips for getting loud on a mic. There's some from shizzzon and me to name a few. After you pick the organization you'll be able to get alot more specific answers ot tips on pulling a good score.

Usually for competition higher tuning affects the mic more then say a 30 herts tuning, but you'd have to test alot to find out what freq. suites your needs of course. Song selection can make a big difference too, pick the total wrong song and your score can drop bad. This just barely scratches the surface, when I wake up more I'll be able to be more helpful.

Oh and they sound fun cuz they are a blast! Not to mention very addictive. There a few key things to keep it fun, first don't get to hung up on winning do it for the love of it, and pick a good organization. I know I love NESPL, I've been to independant comps and some have been very fun, but NESPL events are by far the best time. It def. adds to the fun for me.to have a great league to built for specifically and has a large group of really cool people.
