so basically it just boost the volume ?? making it louder ??
coz sad to say, im using pioneer 6.5' component set for front and pioneer 6x9 on rear... can say its clarity is superb but it just lack of bass... so amp can help on that ?? or i really need a sub ??!

hmm... but which acc shop is willing to let me try ?? the Brothers in melaka didnt even bother to entertain me when i buying stuff... wat more if trying...

analogy for sub bass if using 6x9, active sub or real sub

6x9 - like drinking beer with one teaspoon at a time

active sub - like drinking beer with a straw

real sub - like drinking beer properly from the glass

nice illustration... 
i thought i would be too old for bass, so i went for 6x9... i guess im wrong now...

anyways... how to improve radio reception ??! when i listen to the radio, on abit louder i can hear alot of noises... but i go to an acc shop and the guys say its fine, no need to change...

hmmm... so no cure for this ??! 
changing speakers wont help getting better reception... i was using this HU before changing my stock speakers... but reception is still bad as ever...   

Need some recomendation for Myvi upgrade,

wanted to keep my stock HU, just want to upgrade speakers, amp, and add a woofer. Budget <1.5k . do i really need to cut front door panel for speaker in order to get better SQ? was thinking not to do any harm on the car body.

Btw, can recomend me a Hi-Lo converter for the stock HU?

All SIFU here, HELP

Hi, I'm a Newbie in ICE. Recently just thinking to upgrade my car audio system. Just few question.
1) I want to concerntrate on Mid Bass. Shu I use 2ch Amp or 4ch Amp?
Actually I thinking to use 2ch Amp for my Mid and 2ch Amp for my
SUB. Or do you think 4ch is enuff?
2) Soundstream brand ok? According to my budget. Or is there any
recommended 2nd brand selling?
3) For HU unit, which model better targeting pioneer or alphine?

Added on September 9, 2009, 12:10 pmOr maybe I shu ask:
Everything in my car now is stock HU, Speakers ...etc
Now, shu I change Component Sets first or the HU first?
because I saw some one in the forum is selling FOCAL component set.

Anywhere,
My Idea of my ICE:
HU: Alpine Single Din or Kenwood Dual Din
Component Sets Front: FOCAL or Soundstream
Rear Speakers: Ori
AMP: ??? no idea
SUB: ??? no idea

Pls advice me. Thanks.

5 digit and 300 bucks is like heaven and hell... still a student anyway... so sud be going for 300 then...
wats a good non-cap-ayam brand for budget rca and speaker wire ?? and its price judge by length ??

Current setup:

Boston S60 component..

Next upgrade:
Boston GT 475 4 channel amp rm1600
http://mobile.bostonacoustics.com/car/car_...&product_id=466

Subwoofer
Boston 12 inch G1 RM700 with box
http://mobile.bostonacoustics.com/car/car_...&product_id=372

rm2.7k with installation, cables, woofer box, fuse etc..

How's the price?

rm200 comp sets wun differ much from each other. just grab one and go.

What do you all think if front install  6' mid + tweeter, and rear only install 6' mid speaker? will it sound good?

Greetings all.

I'm planning to get my car's speakers changed to a component set while retaining the stock Clarion HU. My budget is RM800 max. Currently looking at :

- Infinity Reference series
- German Maestro "A"-series
- Dominations (not sure which, but the one around RM700-800 gua)
- Boston Acoustics (not sure which series/model too)

Of all above mentioned, which is most recommended?

All feedback and suggestions/recommendations are generously welcomed.

Thank you guys!

Is that the best amongst the list? I have not personally heard them yet so I can't be a judge of anything.

Well I want to, but my current budget is only RM800. So I guess I shall go for a decent set of components first.

Thank you for your reply tho!

edit : Oh and, what's the main difference between the S60 and SX60?

Ahh, I see I see. Tried to Google for the difference but can't seem to find any significant difference between the two.

Thanks for your feedback! Oh and, what do you mean by "audit"?
Thanks for the clarification. Appreciate it.

Eton.. Is it much superior to the SX60?

Just went to have a listen at the SX60.. I didn't really like it. The SL60 is far better but at a RM300 premium.

Any shops in PJ that are recommended to have a look at?

Thank you.

Yeah I guess so..

Besides these five brands - Focal, Dominations, Infinity, German Maestro and Boston Acoustics, there's no other sub-RM800 component speakers worth mentioning huh?

A'ight, will look around for this brand too.

How's JBL's GTO series?

Sorry if I'm asking a bit much, just wanna get some recommendations so that I won't have to waste time looking for certain brands.
lol Ini tarak duit beli la.

F#1 should be a good start
