strange mindset

Ok...on this other site, that ranks my car's install, I had a kid actually accuse me of cheating since you couldn't see my subwoofer. I asked the guy how he came to that conclusion and he mentioned that I didn't have one showing and that I had three amps for one sub....

well that MUST be the problem.

I have been curious about the mindset of some people. All they see is three amps, so then I MUST have at least 3 subs. Do people not know that amps can be used for other speakers as well? Now I have the webmaster asking me to show proof that I have only one sub. Kinda pisses me off you know.

ok..I am off my soap box...just the ignorance of some people kills me sometimes.

yea that is no doubt. My son's best friend just fried his db drive 12's and wanted me to get a good deal for him. So I called my shop, had him come up and we demo'd the subs, had a box already, just popped it into his expedition and walllaaaah....he has "bump" again.

well he bought them, since they said db on the dustcap. (crossfire db 12's) and he is happy. But in listening to his system on the way home, I could barely make out what the song was about. He said that the stock speakers run fine off the deck and that he didn't need new speakers..all he wanted was the "bump". BTW...on that audiobahn note, these Crossfires have chrome baskets, and we inverted them. He was so happy cause now he can compete against his buddy with them "audiobombs". I just laughed.

i was really surprised today a guy came in and wanted a system but no sub or atleast not yet he want a really nice comp set and hes thinking about the Arc Se series amp to run the comps. hes thinking about spending 1600 on the front stage and deck. i gave him a hell of a deal to cause he actually cares about SQ or atleast he said he did.

I have had people do that too Devin.

My shop sold a 15,000 system to a guy in one of the wealthier area's of OKC. He is a dentist and didn't want a system that bumped but did want something that really sounded nice. All he listens to is classical and modern jazz so he wanted something with some nice sound. The shop demo'd my car and he fell in love with the focal and audison combo. Now being that he spent about 15 grand, his components are better than mine.

two sets of Focal Utopia Be's No7 up front and No6 in the rear. Total price: 6 grand for two sets of components.

4 Focal Utopia 5.25" subs in the dashpad (not deep sound, but definately lower than midbass. Total: 600 (one heck of a deal)

Audison VRX4.300 (comps) and Audison Thesis (subs) Total:6500

Install 2,000 (including wires, batteries, fiberglassing dash, JL Cleansweep.

all going in a 2006 CLS55 Mercedes

What site is accusing you?

if its that car stereo site tell them to stick it.

It doesnt matter there if you got 100 subs. its not about how many you got, its about what equipment you have and the install.

one of the judges or maybe even just a member is accusing me of cheating. So the admin got wind of it and has asked to see my sub in it's enclosure. This comes at the end of the judging sector so I may miss out on a trophy cause of this 'tard.

needless to say I have to take out the package tray and my rear seat back to see the box with the sub. So that will come in a few days. I will then post it so as to prove that I am indeed not cheating.

Here is an exerpt from the email I was sent.

"Competitors must enter the install gallery in the appropriate classification any gallery in the wrong classification will not be eligible to win trophies or prizes. Any gallery in the wrong classification if not corrected will be removed."

meaning that this 'tard stated that since he can't see the sub, then I must be cheating. So the admin forwarded me the OCAC rules and told me to provide proof of my one sub install. f'n retards
