Default Looking for good stereo installer in NE Florida?

anybody knows of a good stereo installer in NE Florida. I want to replace my Bose with new HU (don't know with which one yet), add an amp or two, replace front door speakers, add a sub 10" (I need custom enclosure, I want to keep as much as possible my truck space, maybe JL Stealthbox w/2x8s"?). Finally I have a RioCar mp3 player to install. The two single DIN (new HU and RioCar) will replace the double-DIN Bose, need a custom facia. I want somebody who knows German cars, and do a nice & clean job, I want a professional job.

Default Sensuous Sounds in Tampa used to do a lot of Porsches and Ferrari's.

I don't know if they are still doing car audio stuff.

Default Here are some things I've heard......

I have seen it posted several times that the bose speakers dont work with afrtermarket headunits. SOmething about the bose speakers using 2 ohms (because of the apmos built into the speakers) and aftermarket headunits send at 4 ohms or something like that. I used Sound Advice for my stuff in JAX and never had a problem with their work in my BMW's. Hope this helps.

Default Sound Advice in Jax...which one? know somebody?

as for the speakers... I'm not keeping the Bose.
I want to change the front doors for 5.25 MBQ (seems to be a popular choice)
I don't know yet about the back doors. Rear speakers will be removed probably to get a better fell of the sub in the trunk, again I'm not sure yet, that's why I need to know my options vs cost.

With Bose you will have to change all the speakers.

Default the radio is the same, and the speakers aren't worth paying even $10 for

If you could get them and the amp free, sure why not. But then you have to wire it, which isn't worth the hassle just for bose.

Default The Sound Advice on Southside Blvd. The installer there is some kind of genius I hear.

Otherwise, the Rollin' Sound on Beach near Southside. I have seen their work, too and while not as artistic it is functional.
