ive got my sound system installed...finally...and the sound is awesome!! but...the only thing is tat my nakamichi head unit seems to sound distorted whenever it plays CD....but if it was radio...it works perfectly fine....but when i play CDs the sound seems to be distorting badddd!!!!

so yeah...the ppl at lifestyle (place where i got it installed) told me tat the lens of the head unit need alignment...and need to be send in for fixing...so im just wondering if anyone here know anywhere i can get this head unit fix...most preferbably... north shore...or east side...so yeah...

or maybe u can fix it then gimme a buzz... :D

thx guys!!

P.S i was told to go to Kims Car Radio to get them fixed...but not too sure if they are good...so would like u guys to make me a recommendation... :D

yeah what toe said. also, what dont u like about lifestyle store?

at first, i actually didnt want to go there, because i know, I KNOW, that their installer people are dodgy, lazy, stupid, rah rah rah. i wouldnt trust installing anything there.

but, and this is a BIG BUT, the shop people are completely different. i found them extremely helpful, and did not waste my time, gave me the best price, and did all they could to help me, especially aftersales help too!
