[QUOTE="swat2380, post: 5912701, member: 566595"] I am a firm believer that the internet could have been a factor into cheap overseas "ampstamping". The price points for all car audio are in the shitter due to the internet. My father owned a shop in the early 90's, no internet mega warehouse competition just the guys up the road. We sold Lanzar, linear, Orion just to name a few. I currently own my own shop, I get all kinds of crappy chrome plated stuff brought in for installation all the time bought from......the internet. I sell great brands, I can stock a set of components that resale for $699 and a day after I show them to a guy, he will call and say he found them at a .com for $399. Handcrafting, designing is expensive. Changing the design of an amplifier is expensive due to tooling of assembly lines, parts change etc. Just buy an amp from Korea and make a profit?? Why not??
