Okay I decided to make this test to see how deep in this habit some of us are

The test is to see how many phone numbers for car audio shops that you have stored in your cell phone

Scale:
0 - Normal/n00b
1-2 - Enthusiast
3-4 - Moderate Issues
5-6 - Serious Issues
7-10 - Freak
11+ - May god help you

I have 5... Audiovault, HiFi Sound Connection, Performance Car Audio, RJ's Auto Sound, Speaker City... I used to have 6 but apparently don't have that one anymore

i have one audioworks in florence ky

1.......but that is cuz i only trust 1 near me.

I have work's number memorized so I don't even bother wasting space in my phone book but I'm far years into it from being a noob

ditto. then again im like the only one around here who trusts nel&s

None. I do all my own work and I buy all my stuff off the internet.

i have like 5 cuz there are about 20 on the street near where i live.

I have 7 stored, but I have a couple other's memorized.

13 and 4 others memorized... Yeah, I have issues...

1 but far from being a noob.......^^^man that avitar's wrong diggin' the trooper though

1. but not for audio questions, they did a K20 swap a while back

and I am far from being a noob

I have none because everyone in my family could help contribute something to my car I have at least 3 cousins that can do my audio system two of them can do any engine work and my dad can do anything concerning auto-body so i'm set..I will have to be learning from them so I can begin to do stuff to my car on my own i'm still a newbie when it comes to cars.

Zero.

I install my own stuff. My setup is fine for now, so no audio shopping in the near future. If I do need something, I'll go shop around, or get it off the Internet. There are no good car audio shops close to me anyways.

Yeah, i do my own stuff too, no #s for me.

1, only because there the shop that installed my deck or even touched my ice

i have three but i havn't used them in awhile....

OK I have 5 numbers that I use.....

1. Alpine (still have buddies there, and I still get all my stuff from them)
2.Clarion (have a buddie there too)
3. Eclpise (I have contacts there do to my job)
4. Al & Ed's autosound (i have 2 buddies that own a shop each and I used to work at one of them)

But I only call to buy stuff cause I do all my own work.

n00b!

1, the only place that i have my stuff installed/bought at.

i do have all the employees numbers, we hang out all the time (going to buffalo wild wings in a bit with them).

one good shop is all i need

I install my own stuff too... in fact I rarely buy from shops

I have audiovault becuase i do work for them, hifi sound connection becuase i bought from them, rj's becuase i haev bought from them, performacne because they carry a lot of the stuff i buy, and speaker city because my buddy works there

I work for crutchfield electronics (www.crutchfield.com for all of you internet buyers) and get what little stereo I have from here. Installs are nothing after working here but if anyone needs any stereo equipment check us out.

Why, so ya'll can fuck them over on pricing for your "customer service" and lack of selection?

Right? Crutchfield is GAY. We carry a lot of the same stuff at our shop as crutchfield and why would I get it from there when I can get it at dealer cost? And for the normal consumer who can't get it at dealer cost, can still get it at a shop for a LOT cheaper. I could sit here and rip on crutchfield all night long but I'll end it with w/e floats your boat man.

I do my own work and purchasing through a hook up of mine, who gets his stuff from "places"

6 Serious Issues

I got 2 but mine are more for performance shops, they do do audio but, yeah i guess 2 then

haha, same here........but i only deal with Denny-o.......i don't bother with Harry. If i need sumtin, i call Denny-o on his cell and he hooks me up.

i am stupid for not readin the post.

Profuse... what the hell does that have to do with the topic question? Just curious if you even read the first page or any of teh replies for that matter...

one, the one i work at.
