car audio in 562, 310, 714?

For southern cali owners:

Does anyone have any good experience with any car audio stores in so cal? I want to get better bass out of the venerable BOSE system

This thing needs more bass, I'm just looking for a good, clean, clear bass sound. I'd be happy to get just a 10" single subwoofer as long as it provides what i want.

Any suggestions?

unless they are masters at what they do, must audio shops will just mess up your system. the bose system in your car is just alittle tricky.

he will give you good prices and will do a great job. They win sound tournaments all the time.

they did my system and i love it. spent a lot but sure beats almost any other car i've compared it to.

Never fear, Jedi is here!

Kalix: I should have the info on a place in Long Beach for you by the end of the day.

As for Creative... I unfortunately had a bad experience with them. They're the shop that was SUPPOSED to do my install and bailed at the last second. I've seen some of their work though... looks good.

I got my 12" and amp installed at:

Pacific Stereo Inc
- maps.google.com
5715 Lakewood Blvd, Lakewood - (562) 531-0551

My system wasn't messed up and it sounds so much better. I basically have a box with an amp attached to it.
