Looking for Quality Houston Tx Audio Shop

elm_tx

This is probably a loaded question, but I'll try it just the same...

I recently bought a '10 NISMO, I pretty much knew walking into it that I would be replacing at a minimum the head unit and probably the speakers.

Can anyone recommend a quality shop, reasonable prices (I don't mean cheap but I don't want Galleria pricing either), that does a Nice install. I'm looking for good clean sound, some decent volume but not into Thumping.

Thanks in advance!!!

Thanks BigAudioFanat however I would prefer a local business open on the weekends. I'm not a kid playing with Daddy's credit card. I'm looking for folks with knowledge, skill and quality.

You need to rethink your comments about big. His quality is probably ten times better than any shop and " folks with knowledge" your kidding right? Big has plenty of knowledge and has take more z's aart than probably any of your "quality shops" probably better priced to. So chill out or

ok... so I will accept you have a valid point. Did not intend to offend anyone. But still, I work for a living, taking my car out of town for a sound system is not an option.

I don't want a thumper, I don't want something so fine that folks are trying to steal my car. I would simply like a decent sound system but most importantly, I want it installed professionally. I'd rather not deal with a place where the sales people are all about the commission (Tweeter, now defunct I believe) and screw what I need. I experienced their B.S. when I built out a home 7.1 system a few years back. Wound up buying the entire system from a private shop. For my Z, it needs to look like it belongs in the car and sounds as good as the stock system in my 300Z or my Chevy 2500 Diesel.

That is what I'm really after.

On second thought, I'll simply I've met one person on this board that impressed me, after that, not so much. Thanks for playing.

Give the guy a break. Not everyone wants someone coming from states away to install some stuff, there are people who want someone local for warranty issues.

Sorry I did not see this thread sooner elm, let me make a call and found out who Baker has been using for their audio installs and who did the work on my car.

They are using a Car Toys in Willowbrook, they are doing a full Alpine setup mostly.
Alpine HU, amp, focal and it will all be hidden in the rear as they want to be able to still put golf clubs in the hatch area. Hoping to have pictures tonight of the install or this afternoon.

Now this would be the fella that impressed me. If I could just find 50% of the information he's given me I would be in hog heaven. Thanks Dreamer, didn't want to bother you or Baker with another question so thought I would try the board, and hopefully see what a variety of folks thought. I'll check out Car Toys this weekend.

A local shop is a must, I just don't have the time to get out of town for something like this.

Thanks for the heads up!!!
