What about in Daytona? Don't they hold the IASCA Finals there every year? I would think they have great stereo shops there.

They do. i went to SBN nationals couple years ago. as far as i know theres nothing there
i might be wrong.
Do you know any installers subterFUSE in the area?

RJCASTR,

Looking great on the fronts they have been a huge issue for me. Where did you go to have the baffles built and installed? Did you say $400? I have spent a lot of time with Eric at Speakerworks working on the car. We have been waiting on the H650 to fix all the EQ issues. SpeakersWorks have done 4 cars for me. Pat is a world class installer but $400 is a great deal.

Yes I am near KC. I live in Lawrence home of the Jayhawks. Florida is a bit of a drive I would say about 19hrs or so. It is 12 to Atlanta from here if that gives you a frame of reference.

Here is a guy in florida that is world class I forgot that he was down there. His name is Steve Head. audionutz

RJ I will PM you later about the pillars I have to run so I will check the link later and see what work may be involved.

Kelly, you are dealing with some of the best installers in the country, i hope you do know that, they have won like 14 Iaasca competitions. If anyone can make something happen its Speakerworks, I went there for quotes on my CDT audio install, as you can see, they are a huge CDT dealer, i first demoed the CDT line there and just fell head over heals for the stuff. They are a little on the expensive side but very good. I got my stuff done at Radioactive in Ontario. Ken Bell is another very well known installer that has done a lot of nice work, just take a look at some of his pictures. He used to work at Audio City (Way overpriced, won't even consider you unless you are building a huge $$$ system) If you want, you should go to Ken and ask him for a quote, He did mine very cheap but took a very long time, he would work on it on his down time, i guess thats the price i paid for having good work done at a reasonable price. Go in there and negotiate pricing, just don't tell him i told you how much he charged me. He might not charge you the same but might get very damn close to it. Even at 500 or so for all that work is still a great price. If you do the speakers and the whole system he will break it down for you nicely and give you an overall deal.

I didn't know that the H650 was out yet, i have heard awesome reviews on it, i heard it sounds different than the H701. Good luck with that, I have another shop working on my box and trunk for a very reasonable price PM me for details you will flip out at the work they are doing and at what price, i should be able to pick up my car friday all complete and installed.


It's very nice to know that E60 forum members are looking to expand our sound system I myself like KU would be very happy to help other BMW members with anything i can.

Thanks guys, this has become a great thread.
