wennington99 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 one of the big problems in my area is sourcing stuff, most of the top shops are out of business and/or carry crappy gear, and I really hate doing the online thing i have no skills and no tools to build a box and all the local builders seem pretty amateur...a custom box shipped to me would be expensive the shop prices are in line with the market....If i had the time skills and tools i'd buy everything used and install myself but i have none of that now I have doubts......anybody local in Toronto can build a box and do an install? that would open alot of the options that have been suggested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wennington99 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 car audio is dead in this town, the once big canadian car audio forum is a graveyard and the shops have closed and are closing faster than ever which leaves us with best buy..or online dealers i wil say there is a ton of used gear around though alot of which is real high end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robby Holmes Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 absolutely go with your electrical system first!!! I've dropped around $8-$10K in the last 4 years for systems that don't last me all that long. I've wasted a lot of time and money all because i was being lazy and didn't fix/support my electrical for the type of setups i wanted to do.
