£1200 Audio System

Got a system install booked for Friday and i'm starting to have second thoughts. Is this worth the money. This includes all the work. Thanks in advance for your time.

Hard to say when the invoice doesn't list the product brands. If they are actually high quality parts installed by a quality shop, 1200gbp is about as cheap as you're going to find including labor.

The head unit is a Alpine Double Din W530BT

Sub is a Planet audio PX12 12 inch 1000w watt single coil amp

Amp is Planet audio A/B 800Watt 4 channel Amp

The door speakers and tweeters are rainbows.

Hopefully, but probably not because it's not a usual thing.
