6. How long have you been competeing?

My study is on everyone all over the world. I'm proving that younger people are not the only ones who enjoy bass.

HI Exotic

keep in mind that people here must be at least 18 to get driving licence and price of car audio goods are more expensive than in USA.

From what I konw abot people here majoriti of competitors are about 21-26 years, but there is still many 18+ year olds and to be over 30 is also not something speciall, (I am not oldest on comps here).

And ind if you would compare salaryes and prices, people do spend a lot of theyr income on car audio here. It is just that they don't have same conditions as in USA, so cars looks that they don't have as much stuff as in USA.

Hope this will help.

Peter

But: Bass sounds best at 50hz and below (c;

And in a car that is able to play more than bass,
over 160´s and is able to ride over the highways...(IMO)

Üüüühh!!!
