Systems are built with sound quality and clarity with stealth in mind
Just finished a 2012 ford ranger comps and coaxials 3 8" subs in a custom ported enclosure behind the seat which functions normal with a slight lock adjustment both amps fit under one seat and vehicle was full dampened no cheap wiring used minus deck and dash kit cost is over 18k 3 days work

Quite true....but it can be said that quoting an average price greater than 18K for an install excluding the headunit without providing specifics isn't very helpful either.

I disagree, the damping served my intended purpose of sealing up the door and adding a little mass to the metal.
Wrong dash finisher used hence the gap....
That's the stock kit, no aftermarket kit was bought.
Again quality come with a price...
It does, but more expensive does not mean better.

Cheap is the word here. Its not only only an Adjective to describe the cost of a system, its a Noun that identifies a Culture.
Neither SR nor Myself never have, or ever will do cheap.
That you guys style yourselves after SIS and other high end shops is great.
There are dozens of people that dont value their time, nor experience, and these "Raj" installers are the first ones to complain about high prices and markup, and are the first one to fight down an install job and offer to "beat" the price.
This is what i have a problem with. On one hand you're saying the customer has the choice to take their business elsewhere, but elsewhere is "raj" You guys have skill and experience, and as such place a value on your time, that's fine, but it reeks of arrogance to say everyone else who charges less is a "raj installer"

The ridge about halfway up seemed to be "resonating/ringing??" when lightly tapped, and since material was scarce (1.5 sheets) i tried the strips and it worked very well. Sounds solid from just those strips being applied.
Rattles in the rear are now completely gone.
