I'd be interested to know; from the professional installers that see this, how often they've seen/fix/clean up these types of home theater set ups in a customers car?

Mainly though, its the scotch tape, no fusing, burnt wires and carpet from no fusing and kickass water damaged set-ups that make the baby Jesus smile...and make me happy to rip it all out and start over again!

But at least it makes for a good laugh around the shop I bet!
Does remind me of high school, when guys were running tower speakers as their sub set-up 
Bass was bass back then, no matter how ghetto! Glad I never stooped that low... although some of the crappy brands I first bought might not have been any better!  | |

I see ebay branded crap once in a while (like Boss, Performance Teknique, Blaupunkt, Almani etc...). Sometimes it actually works! And sometimes it doesn't make funny noises and pops and fizzles. There is a reason why its $49 for a 2 channel amp.
Ebay is the new London Drugs.
