If you're going to run a 4 channel for your in car speakers look for a nice umbilical cord that contains all your speaker wires and usually a remote turn on in the bundle... then its as easy as running one wire from your amps to behind your head unit and then soldering into your factory wires... never a door jam again!!

Considering that you're a car stereo retail guy, I'm blown away with your attitude Dave. I know that you don't want to make any sales on CCA, but what about Rob @ Forbidden? Your opinion is really going to hurt people like him.
I think that we should support local companies. It's the reason that America is so fuct right now. Everything is outsourced to some cheaper place that has crap warranty.
My company buys things direct from the States. It's awesome, until there's a problem. Then we get harsh screwed! A 40 pound woofer shipped back from Point Roberts (America) is $25.00. Most of the time they won't warranty the product (coc sukers) $25.00 more. The worst part is the border...they screw us for duties again for warranty work, even though it's free!
So, ya. it's good, and bad. We know what we are buying though. To go there and just buy whatever without having information on what a good amp is, what real wire looks like and what to expect with impedance issues, it's got to be unnerving.

I have some thoughts on this matter but they are being dealt with in a different manner.

While I certainly agree that you haven't done anything against the rules in this thread, I am sure you knew it may ruffle some feathers amongst the other Canadian vendors.

The reality is Dave, this is the 2nd time around you've inquired about advertising rates for whatever it is you're doing or planning to do. The unfortunate part is that perhaps one day if you become a vendor (not likely), the same mentality will be applied to your shop or products.... heck, eBay has everything right? But again, you haven't paid and likely never will because its easier for you to spam the PM system peddling your gear than stepping up and becoming authorized.

But then again, you aren't a vendor, heck, you don't even support CCA. How much vested interest do you even have in this community. Coming from a guy who has been banned numerous times and is fortunate to even be allowed back, I would say you really don't give a ..thus, from my deductive reasoning's, i don't either. You have a PM, now you get to answer it and once complete, a special surprise awaits you

By the way, regardless if you want to be a vendor, or even a member here that CCA train has left the station. No one has time for or you.
