First topic message reminder :

I saw Kicker amps,subs,Mids,and highs for sale at Pep Boys recently, kinda odd for a car parts store chain to sell Kicker products scratch

I saw some Pioneer decks on display there also. Lightning audio products have been on there shelves for awhile too. Maybe they will start to sell more main stream car audio brands/products!!! I noticed that Pep Boys has more atfermarket stuff than other car parts stores i have been 2. Any1 have any input on this?

This is something we "Female dog" about on a daily basis. What happened to an industry with a love for car audio and not just the almighty dollar. Yeah we all like to make money but there has got to be a passion behind it all.

Alpine, Pioneer, Kenwood and Boston Acoustics have a few shops carrying their product, but it seems like most shops around me are focused more on Alarms, remote starts and navigation than car audio. The internet stores and chain stores have killed car audio for the real shops. Some of the local shops have had to agree to install gear kids buy online, just to make ends meet. Several shops that used to be pretty big have closed down.
