[QUOTE=StreetDreamz;712669]I'll let my rep. Rusty North know that you intend to advertise pricing on Kicker products below MAP. Guess it doesn't matter anyhow, because Kicker only sponsors people who already have lots of money. Lol.

your rep know? so what is it that you do then? and what are you saying that im not wealthy?

One is enough. My subs are rated at 175w RMS per coil, so multiply by 8, and that comes out to 1400w RMS

A DX1500.1 puts out 1800w RMS @ 1ohm, and I will be wiring the subs to get 1ohm, so one DX1500.1 will be enough

I sell/install car audio for a living. Kicker happens to be one of the many brands I sell in mass quantities and as such I understand the full legal obligations when under sale/use contracts by Kicker. Demo equipment must be kept for a minimum of one year and only then can it be sold at retail pricing. If any "unused" equipment is given away and/or sold for profit without their consent you will be subject to HUGE fines.

And by having money I mean you appear on tv, have 10 cars, and live in million dollar homes. It's a Cobalt dude, get over it. Get a job and buy your own equipment.

I got news for you kid. I have here in front of me the dealer confidential CEA2007 book. Nowhere on there does it say anything about Elevation Audio, EA, E.A. or anything of the like. Guess what. It's not in the 06 book either. Someone is taking you for a ride. Damn good one too. I could have told you that earlier also because no company in the world offers close to a true 1000RMS watts even under $300 at cost to a dealer. Lol. Granted many can claim to have that much power...none do. But good luck. In ten years you will hopefully look back and go...what the **** was I smoking?

Actually it's an 800 dollar amp, and they arent using it, and its the last one they have left, and they offered it to me for 250

www.ElevationAudio.com

I guess theyre just a bunch of posers and their equipment must suck as well. Because noone's better than kicker, right?

I can't even count the number of brands greater than Kicker. Lol. If it's an $800 amp they wouldn't be selling it for $250 unless they are going out of business. Trust me...I know about MAP and how retail works. Lol. Pretty half assed web site too. 3/4 of the **** doesn't even work on it. That's a company I'd sure buy from.

You wouldn't be conversing on a $10,000 car forum and driving a Cobalt trying to scrounge up a sponsorship to finish up your system if you had a decent paying job and/or were "nearly" a millionaire. Lol.

Being in the game for so long.....I'm just trying to set these kids straight man. They are the future of the car audio business that is looking more and more dreary the more I see this half-assness.

This isn't the first shop I've worked at. Lol. And it's the third I've managed. I didn't get to be an MECP Advanced installer when I was just 20 for no reason. Trust me when I say...I know my ****. Guess it's why I'm so cocky about audio.

My expertise as an installer only came from my excellence as a salesperson. Learning what NOT to do.

I might get an optima, but the alternator is staying.

I need a new amp first
