Ok, wll i think today is the day to replan my audio...... i was looking at some Infinity's at Circuit Citywhen i was their on sunday........ ill have to go their with my friend, so i can get a discount on some stuff. And just got my last pay check. Well, looks like Sony's out of the question
well, i guess it depends on the area. i myself am MECP certified and am an installer at Best Buy full time. i used to do it on my own and never had a problem, now i do it and earn money for it, so i can't go wrong. u will have some installers who care less about a customers car, but not me. to date i have only had customers come back for more work, not for cheap work.1995stockcivic said:
the 4 yr service BB offers is good for subs and speakers cuz most of the time they are replaced on the spot. for alpine and pioneer headunits, they will be sent out for service cuz the manufacturer doesnt replace easily unless the product is a lemon.
unfortunately, buying retail price sucks. if u can get a deal, go ahead. i like the alpine type s because for the price they are not bad. lucky for me the employee discount ROCKS!
my views on sony speakers and subs are.. decent speakers... but get somethign to push them HONESTLY!>. because they arent that bad as long as you have somethign to push them.. and im meaning somethign a lot better then sony.. kenwood.. get a mtx amp or something... but for theprice its okay but there is a lot better stuff out there
I dont get the hostility people have towards Best Buy?boricuacvc said:well, i guess it depends on the area. i myself am MECP certified and am an installer at Best Buy full time. i used to do it on my own and never had a problem, now i do it and earn money for it, so i can't go wrong. u will have some installers who care less about a customers car, but not me. to date i have only had customers come back for more work, not for cheap work.

I am the Install senior at my store.
I know we seem to have our share of customers that will never be satisfied no matter what. But for the most part, we do some of the most solid work in town. Probably getting 50% of the mobile video in the city.
the People that dont seem to like us cuz in my bay are the people that try to get something for free. It just doesnt fly.
This is an interesting thread.
You know what? You might actually be happy with Sony. I mean you are upgrading from Dual.
The Best Buy here in Arlington is a joke. They never have anything in stock and there displays are half assed.
Maybe they are poorly managed or understaffed. Who knows?
My experience with Sony was not good
Actually, it's an Aiwa. A division of Sony.
It would periodically refuse to eject the CD in it and sound quality was okay at best. But the controls were logical and easy to use.

my sister bought them for her old saturn and never put them in.best buy to most ppl is just about electronics in general cuz they dont have the best out there, so ppl just put it down.snoopy316 said:
u'd be suprised how many ppl i get in the store b/c of word of mouth. i had a cop come in with his personal vehicle, an 03 denali on 24's, tv, and all the good s**t. i finished off his car by doing a system. a few weeks down the road, we get a few more city employees in sayin how their "friend" told them to come there. so once ppl know what we do, they will be happy. its just the first impression kills us cuz they dont know the skillz! 8)
just did a setup. 2 10" p2 powered by a rockford 3002 amp. sounds pretty decent and b/c of discount, he paid only $275 for everything.
sony sucks...
anything audio for a car(that is sony) sucks.
and that is speaking from personal experience..
just get a home entertainment system and put it in ur car if you are gonna go with sony..
