Ahh, I am having flashbacks of Commercial Law. On this point you have a valid point - if they picked out the parts then you assumed that they are experts and therefore it should work (for a while). On the previous post, it is true that the system did survive for over a year.
Did all four blow at one time? I am wondering if you had raised a flag when the first one blew, then maybe a different result could have been reached.

Your argument is with their knowledge (business practice) not the part itself. A reasonable person would assume that an aftermarket car stereo, that was picked out by an expert in the field, would last longer than a year and a half.

Then, I think (not that anyone cares what I think) you have a valid argument. You trusted their knowledge as experts to choose parts of a car stereo (which they sold you) that would last for longer than a year and a half, and the parts obviously were not paired together correctly.

Just to give this some closure, although I would still advise people stay as far the hell away from CarToys as they can get, I have a pair of 6.5" Arc Audio speakers on the way from Double D that should be delivered today. I'll be pulling out (and selling) the custom dual-5.25" surrounds in the doors currently and installing the new speakers as soon as they arrive.
Dennis has graciously offered to walk me through the component hook-up and adjustments to the amp/head unit settings to achieve maximum effect. The new speakers have the same 75w RMS as the amp puts out so I don't have to worry about them blowing out on me as the Infinity speakers did.
