From the sounds of what Winno said the Intermediate class better watch out cause the novices are coming :girl_devil:

Close competition across the classes too!


Great night with 28 competitors!

Even though the rain was a bummer, i've heard heaps of positive comments from a few competitors about last night. Good to see a huge turnout. Looks like intermediate and expert competitors are gonna have some good competition this year...

May have to pull my finger out and get down to one...

Whens the next comp Drew??? :P

damn, steve wasn't joking in saying how close novice was.. Wasn't expecting to finish where I did at all, thought i'd be on the other end of list..

Was a good event, good people there make it a great event. It seemed everyone in novice were really interested to see what each other had, as soon as something opened everyone walked past.

I can now see how addictive this is, already planning on more purchases.

thanks for the guys and girls from n'field capalaba for hosting event.

Looks like it was a great night, also looks like yous had an excellent turnout, and the scores look so close. would of been great to attend.
Really bummed that I missed it, I was looking for my dog from 3:30 until about 5:00 as she got out and turned up playing down the park with some kids, oh well there is always the next one..... gives me time to tune my system a bit as well as I haven't had time to do that yet.

Cheers, Grant

I had a blast. So much to do before the next one. Speakers to run in, Amps to buy, tuning to do, fire extinguisher to mount......

Thanks to everyone who set this up. Extra thanks to Steve for feedback during judging.

Thanks to all the competitors, it was a pleasure to judge such nice systems. Just a hint to all competitors, most of the time it pay to adjust and present your system with the front seats positioned as far back as possible to help with your stereo imaging etc. Keep up the good work, have fun.

PS. With some small modifications and tweaking, some of the systems presented could go from great to brilliant.

Its fantastic to see that everyone had a great time, regardless of the weather... Even better to see all the new competitors and some old ones, mixing it up for a close finish in every class.
Well done for the massive turnout from all the novice competitors.
Thank you SRB Promotions for the photos (especially of my car...), display signage and lighting.
