People in toledo rarely break 150. ive never seen it at the shows around here ive been to. 145 seems to be about the max. so competition wouldnt be TOO much of a problem, granted i learn what im doing. and i seem to have a better idea than most do around here. (i see only one or two burps at local comps, most people just crank gains and volume when time goes)Also, after college, i was really considering opening a stereo shop, as im not too impressed with the local ones here and i think a good audio business would do well here. and a van hitting good scores locally would be somewhat of a good advertisement for a business (especially for kids hoping to get loud who attend shows)so to buy the astro or not.. hmm.. any comments?also, i was curious as to what the awards usually are for winning your class in comps.. i wouldnt need it to be much but id like to do a little better than just breaking even each time (like 20 to enter usually)not expecting to win states or anything just looking to have some fun.(yes i know its gonna be expensive, and probably more expensive than i think.. but little by little i could probably get respectable scores)worth it?</blockquote>
