    auto sound and security are the only bet
    a bit of the expensive side though

    Why Rockford in particular?

    Pauls Audio are pretty good, have a good mix of both expensive and decently priced.. http://www.paulsaudio.co.nz/

    are you just wanting to buy equipment or get it installed.
    if just buying bits you can often get better prices off the magical internet

    how much better.. because im running the risk of something getting damaged in delivery.. and (no offcence) but NZ postal services are useless!! i know id be able to return it etc, but all that hassle! rather pay the extra $20-30 and pay the shop the extra charge!

    after some investigation. some shops down here are selling the same product for over $100 more than in Auckland!! crazy..

    SoundStream stuff is pretty good, and they can take a beating. One of my mates got mid 140 dB out of one of their subs, and had SS components in the front - they sounded pretty good.

    the reply from Quality Car Audio Limited...

    Hi Michael,

    Sorry that there no T600-2 in Nz because is not popular.
    However, we do have the 4 channel amp T600-4 for only $920
    or for 2 channel Punch P400-2 for only $450
    Postage is about $12 for each amplifier.
    Please let me know if you interested.
    Thank you.

    idiots! defiantly not using that company!

    my reply:

    you have misunderstood my original email.

    because of that reason alone I will not be using your company.

    Michael.
