even if they go bankrupt, that doesn't necessarily mean they go away. they may just be bought out by a different company and go under new executives. this may be good or bad.

This isnt a good sign for the hobby, or is it?

Honestly, car audio isnt very big anymore. Not anywhere what it used to be in the mid- late 90's. But now days there are more choices in Mfgs, more choices in their lines, just to many options.

These Mfg's just need to stick to 2-3 lines and do it right.

Thats where Audiobahn fails.

Well it seems to me that if Audiobahn hits bottom then that leaves plenty of room for Funky Pup....

Long Live the Pup

i gotta agree with you here, i love audio but, i make most of my money doing window tint and remote starts. i am actually a dealer now for aftermarket cruise control kits specifically to try and get some business from the local scion dealer, they have been sending their cars out of state for cruise control kits to be installed because they dont even offer it from the factory.....nowadays it seems you cant just do audio, i also do car accessories, hell the biggest sale ive had so far this week was for a set of racing seats, the rest of the week i have 2 remote starts, 1 remote start alarm system, 2 tint jobs, and i audio job but , the guy getting the audio work done already has the amp and subs, he just needs them put into his new car.

Damn flea markets!!

A guy I sold an sqx to said he had an amp, then called me and said he just got a sweet deal on a "dual" amp at the flea market and wanted me to install it....

I wonder if I would get laughed at if I tried to sell some quality equipment at the flea market? :o
