I'm sure that Audio Express is always hiring, but I've never really considered them a reputable shop. I'm pretty sure Rockford Fosgate Corporation is located out in the Tempe area, have you considered a corporate job?

There are a few smaller joints like Sounds Good To Me, Kustom Kar Sound, Chronic Audio, Soundwerks, and Signature but none of them are that popular. There are also a couple of higher end places on Scottsdale Rd. that do Porsche and Ferrari's. Maybe you can start something

Like Chris said, both Rockford and MTX are in town.

I used to do car audio stuff for fun during high school and I would never want to work at an audio express or other crappy install place. After 7 years experience I'm sure it takes a little more to excite you than replacing a head unit in a 1989 Corolla. Any pics of your work?

I was just saying that if he moves out here without a job already lined up, its a place to get a paycheck until he can find something better.
