hammiethebasshead Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 so i was on youtube watching some of Johnathan Price's vids and came across this one. I think he makes a good point in that it really shouldn't make a difference whether you install your own gear or have an installer/shop put it in for you. I personally install all my own equipment, build my own boxes, ect. but there are definitely those that do love bass and love nice systems that don't have the knowledge or don't have the time to do it themselves and if I came across something that I didn't know how to do or didn't have time for I would pay someone to do it for me and be thankful in knowing that it was done right and that I helped someone earn some money as I do installs myself for people on my days off of work when someone needs it. once you get a speaker moving so hard that its possible to make tinsels slap, you are already kissing "SQ" goodbye. Don't get me wrong, as I smoke Marlboro Reds, but if I saw one more kid with that smug-ass look (Look at me I'm smoking indoors) on their face, I was going to shove that thing so far up someone's ass that they'd look like a hillbilly trying to understand quantitative prediction theorem. You know why people are ass holes online but not in person? Because getting punched in the mouth hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardboardcat15 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Lol it had to be a JP reference. No one cares about built vs bought, only about the attitude of the person who built/bought. Only when they have a shitty attitude and act like self absorbed jerkoff's is the "built vs Bought" subject brought up. My Channel on YouTube.

Skullz Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 There are some people in life that are just all thumbs when it comes to any kind of mechanical aptitude work. There are also people in life that you may not want to take advice from. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmanjr82 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 The difference is if the shop does a hack job and you pay for it, vs you doing it yourself and knowing it was done how you wanted the first time. Some places dont allow you in the back/garage to see whats going on so really you dont have much to go off on the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Why even make a thread about this? Go join him on his forum then. I don't think you understand the attitude he has had over the past years. My opinion of you just went downhill, hope this doesn't turn into forum suicide for you, lmao.

bighossf150 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Anyone can pay someone to get them loud. I designed and build my whole system by myself and I'm.fucking proud of it, picked out the gear, designed and built the wall all by myself, ran all the wires, fiberglassed the doors and it did 158.9db. Who deserves more respect the guy that dropped a fat stack of cash at a shop or the guy who spent months building, rebuilding and tweaking every last part.of their system to get the most out of it? Gtfo here with that shit.

detroitdb Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Deff the guy who self taught/self installed, However some people just cant do it. Now if the guy who pays all the cash and then brings his bad ass vehicle to a competition to compete he should be repping his installer. If he doesn't hes a really big super douche!!! I think that's what everyones point is. https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipP7rjav9cD9UFdAYBJmz4M4LoNlF26ng1xhAf4Uhttps://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipP7rjav9cD9UFdAYBJmz4M4LoNlF26ng1xhAf4U 2013 DODGE CHALLENGER R/T SUNDOWN ZV4-18 CRESCENDO 3.5K PIONEER AVIC 5300 NEX ALPINE TYPE R 6.5S & 6X9'S ROCKFORD FOSGATE 1.5" TWEETS 5 C&D TECH BATTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
