Love the work that was done love the way everything turned out BUT the manger was a complete idiot he had no ideal what was going on or really what he was saying. I have no clue on how this guy is managing a store. He's completely Clueless. Thank god there was an experienced salesman there to clean up the mangers mess. Only because of the products the installers and the other salesman would I reco this place for car audio. MICKEY DO ME A FAVOR AND PLEASE REEVALUATE THIS STORE MANGER AT THE LINCOLN PARK STORE

For those of you who don't want to read, in short, this shop installed my equipment wrong, tried to potentially steal equipment I provided, and would not fix their faulty installation; leaving me to fix it myself! If you would like me to elaborate on this, I suggest reading the rest of the review. PLEASE do yourself a favor, and don't waste your money here.



I went to this store to have an amplifier, wiring, and sub woofer installed, that I provided myself. After getting it installed, they fed me a story about how it could not be installed completely correct, but it will still work (at a reduced quality and power, of course). After looking over the installation, that took them 7 hours, I noticed multiple flaws in their wiring. Furthermore, the didn't use the wiring that I provided, AND they didn't return it to me. After going back to the store, they found MY wiring sitting on a shelf in the back. I believe this would have been used on the installers own car if I hadn't noticed. They apologized for this happening and they told me "we will take make it right." Optimistically, I took it back to be fixed. 6 hours, I waited, for the install. When I finally got my car back, I looked at the installation again. The wiring that I provided, was still coiled up in the trunk. Only a foot was used, to go from the amp to the sub woofer. So, 6 hours, it took them to connect a 1 foot long speaker wire to the amp and sub. The speakers, were still not wired with the wiring I provided. The sub woofer, could not be bridged correctly, so it wouldn't receive the right amount of power. The overall sound, was slightly distorted and the bass could hardly be heard.



The products I provided, although not top of the line, are tried and true well known products for their quality. After contacting the manufacturers of all these products, and talking to audio veterans on online forums, I concluded that these products could be hooked up with no problems. Although they would have to be hooked up correctly, and this store could not provide that.



After feeling jerked around, and unappreciated by this business, I decided I wouldn't take it back to be correctly fixed again, because I know, it won't be fixed.



One month later, the sound started cutting out, and a few days after that; the sound wasn't working at all. For 3 days, I went without audio in my car. The amp was in protection mode. It being winter, it was too cold to fix myself, so I took it back to Mickey Shorr. They said they'd look at it, as I stood around for an hour and a half. They said the found a problem and they were fixing it. When they were done, they said all they did was turn the power on the amp down.



As soon as I left, of course, the amp was not working still. They told me that was all they could do, and the amp was simply going into protect mode because it is not powerful enough. Knowing a few things about car audio, I know this is untrue. The amp would only going into protect if the power was too high, although it didn't work even on the lowest power setting.



Now, I have to fix the amp myself, because the "installers," were not skilled enough to do it (in the 16 hours they had my car, yes 16 HOURS!). Did I mention that the quote ending being too low by about $75? I will absolutely never go here again, and if you care about your money, you will not either.

I had a remote starter which by the way was in no means a cheap one it was the number one product they carried was installed on my 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 on January 20th 2015, 7 days later I had to take it back because it was starting itself in my driveway when I took it in they said the interface module was not programmed correctly so they fix that, so they said then approximately a week and a half later my 86 year old mother was driving it and had to get a jump because my battery died I called the store told them what happened I had to have it towed from my house to their store in Lincoln Park they said because my battery was 9 years old that was the reason at that point I told him that my truck was covered under 3 feet of snow in - 0 degree weather for 7 days I went out and started my vehicle on the 8th day I had no problem and this was all before they installed the remote starter and interface module in my truck he informed me that when I leave the parking lot to go buy a battery so I did the system was disconnected so I wouldn't have issues until I got my new battery to make it worse I explained to both the managers I have cancer and I need my vehicle to get to doctor's appointments chemo treatments and radiation and not be stranded or my 86 year old mother stranded somewhere I am now taking it to the one in Taylor on Telegraph I just read the review online about that store and it was not a good review the one in Lincoln Park left all of the spliced pieces of wire on my floor board didn't bother cleaning up and when I asked them to reimburse me for the battery they said it wasn't their problem so I called corporate headquarters within 25 minutes I had two representatives call me they don't want bad business I really hope people will learn from other peoples reviews and listen go somewhere else.Needless to say I am very disappointed with the salesmanship of the managers at the Lincoln Park store.
