Speaker Replacement

[pndavis4]

Guys, I have decided to replace the speakers in my 02' LC (with NAV). I've researched the process of this job, and have decided not to take this on myself.
Any feedback on how much it may cost to have a sound shop do the job? I called place in town and they quoted me around $400.00 parts and labor for medium grade speakers. What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance

I was quoted about $550 from a 'reputable' shop here in Denver (not a chain store like cartoys or qualityautosound etc) to replace all four speakers with a medium grade set of JL speakers. I chose to go with the top shop in the area who quoted me at roughly $450 to replace all four, but ended up spending the extra coin to do just the front two speakers but added an amp and sub as well. Set me back a little over a grand, but I'm happy with it.

So yeah, $400 is about right.

Damn, I dropped in 2- tweeters, and 4 speaker for maybe $250. All Polk audio speakers. It's a 1 banana job.

If I had to do it again I'd probably replace/keep oem speakers and just add a small amp and sub. The sub really adds the most to the overall sound in my humble opinion (and no, I don't have a trunk-rattling-teeth-knocking sub system that wakes the neighbors).
