Silly Sundown

So I was driving today with two of my buddies to get some stuff to work on an install and we pulled up to a light. It was the classic high school kid next to use bumping his Sony Xplods, So we all began talking about how people in our city have no clue about what is out there, names like Sundown IA FI and Mach 5 were just some listed. Literally two minutes later there is a Trailblazer that is driving slowly from the otherdirection. I saw on on his windshield he has a sundown banner but it wasnt in the right font so I assume it meant something else. Well as the car goes past I noticed all his windows are blacked out and I see his back windshield and sure enough it says Sundown Audio in the same font that Jacob uses. I have no clue who it was and I know most everyone in my town with systems. I know it may seem like a lame story to most but I was really impressed to see something like that and thought it was pretty ironic it was literally two minutes after we all agreed no one around us knew shit about systems other than what they get at BB or CC

It's true.

Hell my one buddy who is an installer and a pretty good one uses mostly name brands and does well, but I was telling him yesterday about my getting a new SI Mag. He goes, "What the hell is that?" I tell him it is an online retailer, but they are some very nice sounding subs and what not. He the tells me, " That CVX you have will shit all over it!" I am like have you heard of the Mags? He goes No! I am like well then is apparent you don't know that it will "Shit all over it!"

Made me laugh as he don't know any of the online companies. He thinks I am crazy for using them. I always try to use well I spent about half of what you did and have basically the same amount of audio equipment. He always gets me though as he says, "dude, I get dealer cost!" So he did get me there, lol!

on my route back from work there is a pos mazda pickup with a topper on it parked in the street. on the back glass of the topper there is a "brahma" sticker... it always makes me wonder...

i've managed to convert a few people though. one buddy in particular went from a bazooka tube to a 12" tc1k to two maw 15s and now he's looking for something else. another is going from two entry level memphis subs to two 12" icons.

I like when people ask me if Cactus Sounds is any good at shows. I used to tell 'em to watch the meters. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif Yeah, that's usually the case. My SI Mag left some impressions for sure.
