When IDIOT KOB type installers get a job over me because they are quicker at installing car alarms and tint. But any audio install its a fire hazard that sounds like crap and looks even worse. Good choice shops... Good choice.

They can't just hire you strictly for audio, and leave the tint and car alarms to someone else?

Sure they could.. but then they'd have to hire more people to just do alarms & tint. If I owned a shop, Id rather have one versatile person than pay two people. I imagine it'd be cheaper.

I don't think that sort of person fits in the category, "friends".

Just sayin....

When you buy kicker equipment and realize after being on the SMD forums that for all the money you spent you could've got a system that sounds louder and better for half the price.

This was before i upgraded my electrical under the hood now it sounds 2 times louder and i still don't have enough power to turn the amp up on full. Also i take back me shitting on kicker equiptment because the amps are badass and no one can say they aren't. But the subs are way over priced.
