[QUOTE="des343, post: 8201904, member: 630654"] In my area the shops are absurd on prices. Also they **** complete dirt work. No one has any REAL customizing skills. But heres the thing man I'm not saying your as bad as the shops around here on pricing and I'm sure you do much better work i have to go hours for a legit shop or I'd consider legit..anyone in Michigan lmk otherwise! Anyways in today's economy do you honestly think people can afford to spend 1500 dollars (on a cheap side) for subs (probably going to be kickers or alpine r/s range), box, amp, install, and such I know shops with a legit dealer liscebds and authorized get GREAT discounts for it so much there should NEVER be (for example 180+ dollar tag on a single type r which is what I see in my area) at least AT LEAST match on line pricing. Idk man unless it's a complete custom job a basic instal fir an experienced installer should be cake...like people around here try to charge like 3-500 dollars JUST for a box for 4 12s...hell I once had 4 12 inch w7s I didn't even have 400 dollars invested in. Idk I have a lot of gripes about the audio world and hobby truthfully but I just love the bass! So I deal with it but at the same time it has stopped me or slowed me at doing a lot of stuff I've been wanting to. Like j said tho that my opinion I could be a little off maybe it's just a thing in my area... [/QUOTE]
