Need audio specialist

[Big Tone]

I own a roofing company and I have a customer that owns a car audio shop who wants to trade a new Kenwood DNX7120, new 5x7 speakers and a bluetooth setup as partial payment for his roof.
He says the system is $1750. How far out of line is he?

Kenwood DNX7120 - navigation system with DVD player, LCD monitor, digital player and radio Car GPS (Navigation) price comparisons - CNET Shopper.com

What type of speakers? Either way, Fords use 6x8 speakers, not 5x7. The Kenwood sells for $900-$1300 online. I'm sure he's getting it for much cheaper. I'd want some subs and an amp for $1750...

I know he is figuring his system high, just wanting to know how much, so I can adjust the estimate on the roof accordingly.

Well the price of everything is increasing... I'd say the price just increased by $500...

This is installed if I forgot to mention.

His product was also installed...

Audio shops charge stupid mark up. My Pioneer speakers retailed for $180 a pair at most places. I paid $90 per pair cause I know a guy who owns an audio shop.

he's not that far out of line ....tell him to throw in a couple head rest monitors and its a deal

I agree. Audio equipment does have a decent margin on it. I would say an amp and subs too and it's a deal!
