There was a shop called Gold Star in a plaza near Nebo & Rhymal, across from a Timmy's and a Rona's. It's now listed as Sound Waves if you google it. If they can't build a box, and I think this is the place the OP is talking about, if they used electrical tape on a carpeted floor as an amp mount than what are they in mobile audio for? You sure they didn't tape the amp up for free? I'm starting to think that when I went there in 07 they didn't have wood or supplies for the day because the Hi-Fi installer (D) who did the BP Escalade was working there that day, and I know he makes boxes and his fiberglassing is impressive. What do you think happened? They weren't even busy, they were trying to sell me things I didn't need.

We are on Stonechurch not Rymal, please don't confuse us with other shops.
The only shop that is on Nebo and Rymal is Mountain Gain . They have been there since the 90's never heard of Goldstar.

Sorry, it is Mountain Gain. That's weird though because in 07 the guys at Hi-Fi called them Gold Star.
