PDX Audio Shop Recommendations?
 
Familiar thread format here.

Anyway, I'm looking at switching up the god-awful system on my BRZ and I'm wondering if anyone's got a place they trust for the labor part of things and maybe some expert advice. There's gotta be some great ones in town.

King pin in Wilsonville is good and Streamline Audio in Vancouver Wa.

I have no idea if this place is any good, but there is a place called Audio Source over in Vancouver - http://www.audiosource.us/ // https://www.facebook.com/pages/Audio...819740?sk=wall

I initially found their website while searching for window tint, but they seem to deal largely with electronics.

Again, I have no idea if they're creditable or what sort of work they do, but I figured I'd throw that out there. I wouldn't mind having a back-up cam installed eventually, so I held onto the link.

Let us know if you end up finding a place that does good work!

Kingpin looks real solid and they've got a pretty massive gallery and list of endorsements. I need to head down to that part of town this weekend anyway so I'll pop in.

Stay away from Stereo King, Best Buy and Car Toys.

The Sound Choice seems to be a good shop.

Hey y'all, just as an update, I've been referred to MusicarNW by the guys at Simplicity in Sound, who do all the absolutely mental builds we've seen from down in CA.

I'll be checking them out.

For Beaverton, OR area, I would recommend Ken from Sounds Unique. The link is to my car photos on his website's portfolio. This is the second project I have had him work on for me and he is absolutely driven to perfection. I can't recommend him enough.

I had tinting and a complete sound damping (floor, firewall, roof, drive shaft, trunk and rear deck, and unibody uprights). Replaced all wiring, added sub, replaced all speakers, and head unit. The attention to detail was so good that he refit everything into the wiring harnesses to make it all look as close to stock as possible - really a level of detail you only see when someone does the work themselves.

NW Audio Shops
 
So starting to think I need more noise in my car...any suggestions for audio shops to get a custom box made to fit in my spare tire spot?

budget isn't set yet but will probably be doing this before the end of summer...

I was able to keep my audio bug suppressed with performance parts but it's starting to want more bass

I know people hate them but CarToys made my custom fiberglass speaker enclosure.

Expect to drop 700 on a custom fiber glass enclosure.

Id recommend looking at the pre fabbed JL audio solutions. Very small with amazing sound.
