trying to sell your old set up so you can upgrade your new one and you get nothing but low ballers. i dropped the price of my kicker 1200.1's from 200 to 150 and i get people saying they can only come up with 260...then go take back some pop bottles and bring me the extra $40 bucks!

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

that shop needs keep those doors open so they have to charge for it

if people think 10k is a lot then they should get into other hobbies.. like masturbating, cause any hobby cost money to maintain

Lol no, I'm smarter than that bro haha. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..............go fuck yourself lol

Going into a shop to chill and see what other people have, and the having the owner shove some bullshit down my throat that I don't want after I tell them my future plans and they say the name brand I'm going with is "bullshit". Anyone else think Soundstream is bullshit and I should go with the $500 a pop American bass 15s instead and let the shop do all my work? No? Didn't think so.

The fact that I just finished my second system and I already have to upgrade my power wire because I fell into the "8awg wiring kit for systems up to 1000w" n00b trap. My amp continually goes into protect mode when any song drops the bass. :sorry:

Actually I'd probably choose AB over the new Soundstream stuff. Unless they started making old style XXX's again lol.

I'm not knocking AB. I've seen what their shit can do when it's set up right. I just don't like having someone shove shit in my face. It happens every single time I go to that shop. The normal people that work there are cool and up for anything and just give you some suggestions and whatnot. One of the owners does nothing but shove shit down your throat, no matter how many times you do a topic change. It's like dealing with that little kid that's all "Now daddy? Can I now? Please please please please please?!" No. You can't and never will charge me an outrageous amount of money to do something to my car I can do myself because I'm not lazy and I have the patience to deal with it.

And on another note, it pisses me off that my back is fucked up and I can't do anything. How does this revolve around car audio? I WANNA WORK ON MY CAR SO DAMN BAD BUT I CAN'T PHYSICALLY DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!

Haven't had one friend spend more than 10 minutes in my presence when I was working on my setup.

Makes me sad. And they are probably the same people that expect their own install to take 10 min. Any more and they'll give up.

Definitely ship times. Also as the OP stated, friends/people who dont know a lot and ask you for system advice for a loud/quality system then cry about the money, yeah I'm not necessarily happy about all the money I have spent but I dont complain about it because it's what you gotta do to get what you want!

Alt whine

^AGREED!!!!!!!!!!

Side note, I hate people that take shortcuts on there installs.

Take your damn time and do it right the FIRST DAMN TIME.

Instead they come to me asking wtf did they do wrong and how to fix it.

Can't even begin to count how many people I've seen that have power wire ran thru there door jamb.

Or even better particle board inserts for there front doors. And most of them cut them down AFTER the board is screwed into the door, sliced up metal ftl.

argg. ok im done for now!!!
