They can help you with your loud set-up. They sell Focal speakers you may want to use inside your cabin. They have a front component set for $399 you may like, actually user KinOKin is selling a week old set he got from them a week ago. They have good deals on Fosgate Power Series amps, which are better than Punch Series BB is selling. The owner George is easy to talk to. Call him. Tell him Alex sent you, and you will get royal treatment. He'll set you up with something loud and clean, and install work and accessories are a million times better than BB or FS. Not to mention FS and BB have little knowledge.

There are many vendors here from Toronto or nearby. There are many other car audio shops in Toronto aside from FS or BB. The work they do at FS and BB is mediocre at best, plus the vendors in smaller car audio shops will give you a better deal anyways. I personally only use

No biggie, I figured you'd jump in. I am not bashing FS BB installers, because I have not tried them all, but in my experience, the ones I dealt wiith were subpar, sales staff always sucked, as they had basic knowledge, and tried to BS me about stuff, cause they seemed to think I am a consumer with average knowledge. I am just trying to save him the possible bad experience, as I feel chances of it happening at BB or FS are much higher than the place I recommended for both service and price. Obviously, you work in one of those stores, and you know your stuff, but you're probably one in a million.

In general, the BB store guy (not tech) does not give a rats *** whether he ever sees you again. For him, its the here and now that matters. Upsell, push the money making extended warranty, bamboozle the poor non tech savvy customer (there are many, many of them), lay a snowjob on the little old lady type thing.
Conversly, a small loacal shop may charge more (you can get burned there too) but it is in thier vested interest to BRING YOU BACK. Repeat business is the lifeblood of small stores, as well as word of mouth.
You have a good experience, you tell 5 people, you have a bad experience, you tell 15.
Small local places have to deal with a lot of crap also, dudes coming in to get information then not putting out a dime, customers playing the price match game of store vs store, etc.
Now, my sympathy is limited, after all, nobody is forcing them to open a small Mom & Pop right? But fair is fair.
Alway 3 sides to any story right?
