dani...of course cables are different.... and prices can differ..... some speaker cables can be RM3 per metre or like my stinger speaker cables are rm 5 per FEET.
RCA cables depends on length...around rm30 is the usual price for normal good rca 1.5m in length. my stinger RCAs costed me rm150 per pair.
best to put aside rm200 for labour + cables + fuse charges.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Sep 11 2005, 10:41 PM) soulfly.....for my ex-EF i took out the entire door panel and installed my 6 1/2" comps... u running on EF9 door panels or EF3? mine i think was the suede door panels from a CRX EF8 be careful about the magnets though....you might have to put some sort of 'washer' for the speaker screws to avoid the magnet hitting the glass (depending on the size of your magnets la)....i did mine using cut outs from carton boxes....looked fugly as hell without the door panels  oh and the standard holes might not be fit with the comps as well....prepare some self tapping screws and a cordless drill I'm using EF9 door panel on my EF. I found out that most component set around has quite big magnet compare to the OEM EF speaker, afraid they might interfere with the window glass Maybe the hardest part is to channel the speaker wire through the correct path

if u using EF9 side panels then should be ok la....the design is the same as my ex-EF only thing mine was suede...
speaker cables abit leceh...its true....but u can push them through the same route that ur power window cables and your central locking cable.
in my case the cables were wrapped in a black tube kinda thing between the door and the car which was located at the hinges.....but my friend didnt bother and just followed the path outside the tube... didnt have any effect oso....but i advise u to go through the tube la...neater

there is no phrase as *better* in ICE a man's meat might be a man's poison
it's better to take the 2 subs listen it...and give ur own review
for me..i prefer kicker compVR just me...

ok...ive been doing the recommendations in this topic...now its my turn to ask a question..... i need a good 12" SPL sub. budget around 800. to be paired with my JBL BP600.1 monoblock. gonna be used to constantly blast metal music. and im talking LOUD metal music. also one that doesnt require a big box...something that i can reuse my box with....the box i have is big enough to sit between the 2 stock kelisa rear speakers. prefer brand spanking new ones. i was interested in the adire brahma....until i found out it costs 2k for a new one....basket. anyway, pls suggest me a woofer to get. gonna ask my installer to order it as a replacement for my broken BM sub This post has been edited by mADmAN: Sep 14 2005, 12:31 AM

madman ....what kind of spl u wan lar??....good sub like MTX n JL audio sub r considered spl sub ....they can sore very high spl for competition but if u really wanna blast it loud for ppl outside to listen u will lose out to those cheapo sub used by those ah beng ....thats for sure cos they have very different frequency range ....cheapo sub can blast very loud from 50-150hz but good sub is usually for 80hz n below....in iasca i hit 142db with 2 10" mtx 8000 but if u wanan blast thumping music for everyone to hear....my sub can lost to a single kicker CVR sub anytime ......but u can hardly hear low 20hz rumbling bass from a CVR ....

for that price range ....u could try out Pegasus ....their component is quite good for budget users.....their reference car won the Sepang Iasca and also Singapore competition in the pro class for Sound quality.....i tried the speaker before ....its quite good.....but if u wanna get something better below 1k ...u could try out eton speakers...... u should go try them out yourself .....try not to go for famous brands like sony ....pioneer n stuff like that .....they do produce good speakers but the better wan usually cost a bomb......try around bfore u decide......
