Having a long break now and took this chance to drive my car all the way back from penang to jb to get some basic ICE stuff done. Total time needed is around 2 weeks and this is the mid 2nd week. Everything should be done by the end of this weekend. Some may ask why so hardcore to drive 700km+ to do up my car. First, im from jb so consider it a trip back to visit my parents, 2nd, hard to find an installer that meets my need, so might as well send my car to one of the best installer in Malaysia.

Disclaimer: might as well put if some dog comes barking in with his (yes a male) nonsense comment. Not affiliated with any ICE shop. And for this reason, no shop will be named. Interested, juz pm me for details. But hey, those old folks here should know which shop this is.

First up the victim. Big brother and small brother. The black car, if u guys remembered, is the same car that won the recent EMMA competition.



A pillar in progress


Door panel removed to redo my midbass mounting. 2 layers of soundproofing on the door. 1 piece of stp roti (tats what they called it) behind midbass to prevent backwave



Redo my boot board.


Nothing fancy or blink blink. Just the way i like it.


the boss himself working on the door panel


boss mia pet... meet mickey



more updates when everything is done.

support support... ^^

f*** my house's rat trap can never trap any rat. and the bait will still be eaten anyways. *****

bakufie,
Nice a-pillar job as usual from the master himself.
Let me know wat u think on the speaker positoning when its done.
would be even nicer if there is a amp rack. ur wife will love it..more tidy in boot area.

Worth the trouble if the boss himself doing it for you. Poisonous....

Please drop by Bukit Jalil~~ pls. On the way back to Penang also.

i missed the chance to have an audition and meet the big boss again i think....

sorry brother jackie...

hahaha... its ok... u miss the full mac setup fella... damn~~~~

bro tomorow your car still will be there ah?

dammit... but better also... later it sets me into emotional state...

thinking about the lovely tunes...

lol i poor la how to pay? no money cant pay lol

the master himself was soo impressed with the MAC setup

Since the master is so impressed, then I guess lucky I didn't get that poisonous jab.

brian, u should have seen his expression!! ..priceless

He went like jaw dropped or white eyed?

lol... he went from shaking his head to smiling to himself... hahaha

bro bafukie, how is u r setup? any big difference? how do you feel?

Full Mac system!!! keng!!!
Speakers also Mac ah?

morel tweet and mac mid bass, yeap he was playing 2 way

6969: still doing some listening... update accordingly

kit: if i remember correctly: mx5000 combo-mac electronic crossover or eq (cant remember)- mc 602- mc301-morel supremo - mac midbass - mac sub

MCC602TM 2 Channel Amp Retails for $3,500
2 x 300w @ 4 ohms / 1 x 600w @ 4 ohms

Really really super high end!!!!!

haha... brother krayden....

so when you wan to make a trip to JB to have an audition?

audit who? the mac setup?
jack's one if got chance, one day will catch him in PG.

yea... the mac setup...

the mac setup, his RCA cable cost him a whopping USD2k

i wish not so supersound comment on this.haha.remembered this guy for ever.

that's can say "match-able" with the setup

knowing the cost and equipment doesnt mean a thing as it gives u a pre-set mind. Why not just go up into any ICE car and just listen/audit without knowing wat is being used.

kinda like doing DBTs?

3500usd??

Dun mind man, dun mind at all.................

brb, go count my rca costs 1st.........
*
*
*
*
*

ok he win.

yessir, 602tm, no longer in production, last known street price >rm10k.
The 300w X 2ch will more than satisfy any 3 way comps. no need 3biji 2ch whatever, 1 biji motheramp kautim everything, just add 302 mono to kick the sub.

Now the final question is if the tuner can justify cost of equipment.
Judging by Jack's posts, looks like mission complete.

This post has been edited by krayden: Aug 2 2011, 01:09 AM

so the ques now is when krayden is gonna upgrade to 602... lol

Hah!!!! Will be lucky if can upgrade to 302.
Retire liaw, satisfied ordy.
Now need to focus on home improvement.

still got long way to go man...still young

home audio? wanna do it once, do it right?

tsk tsk tsk ........ poison poison lol.
not home audio, more likely to be home theater. yesterday just saw a gorgeous 60" sammy LED.

ic...HT is good too. enjoy more by ears and eyes....but promise no jav ok?

ok, dun off topic....

when can i see u jack?

u come find me lor... hahahaha

wah, see got chance sure i go lor...loss the chance last time..really tired for the seminar...lolz

my home theater/entertainment plan was supposed to be delayed much much further, however with my dying TV, im going to go ahead and settle the tv part first, going for a 42", thinking either the sharp aquos 4 color BS or the sammy. Sony IF i plan to move my ps3 down stairs for good lol

next week my half baked ice journey begins, so excited

can't wait to audit your car...
your 2way amazed me...

Wow wow wow.... Sad that I may not be around to audit.. if u drop by Penang... Give me a buzz.... Teh Tarik on me

bro, your are most welcome to audit it, i hope it turns out good. yesterday i audited one persona with ameron 3 way, man, that 3 way amazed me bro, i mean for that tight budget, The Boss did awesome work. bro u r the one with 3 way hybrid audio rite? your amp sudah repair ka?

sure bro, if im there i will give u a call, i have u r number, and if u r in JB call me or pm me, we can meet up and yum cha. get chance to audit u r car

krayden,
taj AV system is almost there oredy. but still without the upgraded front channel.
u should come by and watch Blu-Ray Burlesque and David Garrett Rock Synphonies!!
i think it will blow u away even without the front channel ready!!.. superb midrange density + the 18" sub is simply awesome.. guarantee u will the love the bass + the rumble.. the system can play as loud as u wann.. 5X louder than ur car..shiok!!

Then u better listen first lol.... No point describing sound rite?

sad i no chance lol

lol.... u can always drop by maaaa..... few hours drive only.......

*only* ma lol...

will hunt you down when I go PG next. Dun runaway lol. Long time no see angku and chin also.

@carcrazy: wont be surprised, if plaster ceiling also can drop. i think this setup better stay far far away. no such antidote.

u shd listen to Blu Ray Rihanna Live at Manchester!! shiok leh.

eh his sammy is what series? i just bought a series 7 46" 2 days ago sunday, looks FRIGGIN AMAZING XD

and no, not rich, the cost is splitted between all my family members, paid on installments of a year lulz

wow..good for you..
dunno wat series but not the highest. he is planning to get a mitsubishi projector later anyway.

his setup above is all paid by himself. he works 14hrs a day(SAP consultant). age: 28years old
really work like shit..and lots of stress from clients.

the one i got (series 7):
http://www.samsung.com/my/consumer/televis...tail&returnurl=

series 8:
http://www.samsung.com/my/consumer/televis...tail&returnurl=

this is the highest end, the current samsung top of the line/flagship LED TV series 9:
http://www.samsung.com/au/tv/series9/design.html

unless ur getting mid/high end HD projectors thats easily 5 digits, with equivalent room space to accommodate, series 7 and above is more than you need for some really ass kicking entertainment
to note: malaysia website (see why i link to australia rofl) does not officially bring in series 9, the RSP is 30k MYR, some higher end/big/long time standing shops got bring in and selling it at ~14-16k MYR with a lot of bundle/packages in conjunction to raya (goto desa home theatre at fajar shopping complex or lowyat plaza to see one for urself lol)

the last meetup we had i was still jobless IINM, however not long after that i join maxis, on their system operations. 24x7 standby, average working hours/day is between 10-12 hours, which time to time also includes working sats and/or sundays, and even doing night jobs which lasts all the way till morning and/or non stop from day job which till date i've managed a 22 hours non stop working day. (24+ was my highest on the previous job, f*** iphone 4, f*** apple)

tldr: f***ing stressful as hell, more so when i know nothing about telco as i was educated and started work on IT. but hey, pay is good, and im young to take up the challenges, why not? right? (and yes i really mean it when i say im still very young )

good for u.

Another TT ah?

Can I tag along....?

he said limited space, dunno if im invited or not

It is ok kua, I'm not interested in the AV... make me yawn and think like putting in other sort of movies instead ....

im interested in both
