An Installation Price of 750?
 
Hey guys, i just got a qoute from this store name Al and Eds Auto Sound in Ontario, CA. The owner took a look of my audio equiments and told me that they'll do the installation for me along with making a custom box for me for a total of 750 dollars. Now my question is, is it worth it?
The owner claimed that they do a great job in installing everything and always made sure the wiring are done in a very clean way.

So, yeah, here are the stuff that i needed to install:
1. Kenwood DXN 7140 Head Unit
2. Alpine SPR-17S 6-1/2" Speakers along with the Tweeters
3. 12" Polkaudio Sub
4. Alphine PDX 500 AMP
5. Custom Box for the Sub

What do u guys think? Should i go ahead with it? or should i find another place to do it?

P.S. Al & Eds Auto Sound, Ontario, CA : Reviews and maps - Yahoo! Local
Yahoo showed a decent user review about this place, so yeah.

Thx in advance ^^

So 750 is just for the stuff installed? If you answer yes to this look for another installer. They are literally raping you with that. The maximum I charged someone for all that and a rear view camera was like 600 if that.

Price included the sub box too from what he said.
If it includes all your power wire and interconnects and the sub box, I would think it isn't too bad a price. But I bet you could talk them down at least a $100

I would say that you can get a pre made box that would be just as good if not better than there, from z enclosures.
Custom Sub Enclosure | Affordable Sub Box
Here is one installed VVV

Power wire also is dirt cheap in bulk.

I agree 100%.......Getting mine Thursday:happydance:

Have them forget about making the box like BAF says and then offer 500 for install, take it or leave it. They will take it

**quality twisted RCA's are not too cheap
