if your in sydney should of checked out Platinum somewhere on Victoria road out west my friend got his system done there and honestly say its great. also that black s2000 on the auto salon magazine Xs2k got it done there as well. should of checked them out =)
if u want nice set up = high price
just normal set up = normal price
or just under seat amp --> cheaper.
and the point now is u have 2 amps, if u got only 1 amp 6 ch, much more easier for u to DIY, less risk to get storing noise.
just shop around mate
Also look at Doran pro audio, they deal with Soundstream [if that is what you want]
Personally, the only places I will go are Doran, FHRX and Precision, for quality installs.
amps under the seats doesent make a job much cheaper, when u pay more its generally for quality workmanship and knowing that everything has been done properly the first time. u just need to make sure that if you are paying a little bit extra for peace of mind that it actually is a good installer and not an average one trying to charge premium prices :)
fair enough :) well saidQuote:

you just need to add a sound deadneing job in the front doors and that will knock off a full day of labour to say the least.
deck, splits, 1-2 amps, wiring, custom spacers were required.
not just a dodgy we will just 2 screw instead of 4 and bodgey it on the stock speaker spacer.
you can only supply all the equipment but not everything required for an install.
some people will charge cheap and do a good job especially if they are working for themselves. say $500 give or take depending on car etc.
otherwise a top notch mob such as precision or fhrx will charge at least 1-2g on labour depending on car and the hours required for the caliber of install.
From memory FHRX and Precision didnt have any installs in auto salon. There are some really really nice install out there but they dont go to shows like auto salon.
And +1 for FHRX my car was done there in stages over the last 2 years
When you know your good, why prove it.... :pQuote:

under front seats will be cheaper as there is no customization, and the length of the power cable together with the RCA cables required will be shorter as well, thus the cost for the cables will be cheaper as well. If boot installation with some kind of customization to mount the amplifier, then there will be extra cost.Quote:
