West Lower Mainland Shop Serious About Tweaking?

Can you please recommend a shop in the Lower Mainland that is serious about tweaking systems. I would prefer that they have an RTA and Oscilloscope. So far the two shops I have had work done at either didn't seems to know too much about tuning or didn't have the time to seriously tweak my system. When I do my next upgrade I will be going to a 3-way active set up so I'd really like a professional tuning session.

personally I'd wanna tune it myself. A shop doesn't sit in your car all day listening to your type of music, You really gotta tune to the way you wanna hear it. Sure I would always ask for pointers, But tweaking is usually done best by one's self IMO.

You could also check out roberts shop (team shadow) in port kells, They have a meter there, and also could give you a couple pointers. they have at least 1 SQ car up and running right now...

Thanks. I do enjoy tweaking myself but I'd really like to have a look at the results with an RTA and I can't afford one.

Tim would be a good choice, Audiolines or Car Tunes or AudioMotion also have the people and equipment to do serious tuning
