Agreeing again? I think this is a disturbing trend!

Andy Jones, IASCA Street X SQL is code for "I half ass everything." Basically you are saying you are not loud enough to do SPL, and have no idea what it takes to do Sound Quality. So you meet in the middle with a quiet system that sounds like ass. Good job at being mediocre.

I think the best way to proceed is to run another comp asap. The turnout for the next comp will prove the SQ scene in Perth is not dead and is full of people who want to have fun.

99% of feedback i have had has been great. Some people are not happy, get over it !

I will say that the next comp will be the test. Please email me if you wish to enter the next comp.


Lets make a judgement then.

Regards


Bruce Johnson

WOW!!! Can't believe all the S*** on here!!

My car was built for two reasons...
1) My love of good music
2) To do very well in competitions

Now I don't know about other competitors, quiet sometime before the comp (probably month) I had my car at a workshop and asked my installer to make it FULLY comply with CAASQ standards so there is no reason for unnecessary points to be taken away which could cost me dearly. The sound was pretty good going into the shop, had some minor issues, however having a few professional people look over my car prior to me moving over to Sydney I decided to work on what they had suggested I should do to it to tidy it up plus whatever I & installer felt necessary and yeah as a result I think it reflected in the score.

I had a long conversation with Numb the night of / after the comp. What he said was probably what he had wrote up on here (which was later removed) and I understood where he came from. He & I are very competitive against each other, though I've backed away from spending any more stupid amount of money in search of audio perfection as its perfect for ME already. If people are thinking it was a biased event, then all Alberts competitors would have been a 1,2 & 3. This has probably been one of the most fairest and highly competitive SQ competitions to date in Perth.

Anyway, thats enough from me. I'm in Melbourne enjoying Michael Buble and hope to see more CAASQ in Perth. If you decided to start fresh next year, even better as hopefully I'll be back in town for good :-)

I had heard some news for PAS. in this year, PAS has been cancelled because of insurance issue, which mean there is no car audio competition will run in october. i think it would be great that we can have one more trial car audio competition. in this competition, we can still compete in CAASQ standard and we don't have to send our score sheet to CAASQ. would it be better? it would be a chance to show WA people passion on car audio. i think Bruce would be able to organise this trail competition again in a short period of time :rolleyes: right? also, Marc can come over WA to see our car audio competition and give comments for organiser and judge to help them perfromas same as other state standard. Even Marc can become a judge as demo play. :P show WA judge what they need to improve. don't just heard something from other and make decision without your eyes. i am not offence anyone here. i just want to try my best to make WA car audio standard getting better.

Cheers

Thanks for your input PHD. Rest assured I am trying very hard to make another event happen in Western Australia in October (towards the end).

Unfortunately, for myself and CAASQ Head Judge (Bruce - Cyberpunky) to come over is proving quite expensive, so we are trying to find a way to make it happen.

as my personal points of view, it would be necessary that you guys come over to show us how to imporve in CAASQ as you guys not thinking WA is playing isolation. compare with the cost of travel in difference states between QLD, VIC and NSW. is that really give you problem? CAASQ has 3 sponsors as i know, why don't you try to ask them become this CAASQ WA event sponsor? in every months, there is a CAASQ competition run in eastern state. this is the first national car audio competition run in WA, i think you guys need to pay more time and attention to grow this baby. i don't think your sponsor scan't afford for this little money when they earn big money in WA. for sponosr point of view, they can know what market trend is and what product will suit WA and CAASQ can increase reputition in WA. i think a lot of WA cars has potential to compete with eastern state cars. in WA, a lot of expert hasn't shown up yet. come over and you will see the truth.

Cheers

It's not as easy as that unfortunately, and yes I did already ask our major sponsor. We'll work it out without doubt.
