QUOTE(scorpiod @ Aug 26 2011, 09:44 PM) +1 to zennn's opinion.. Thanks for the advice bro... its true of what you have said.. i guess i'l juz have to wait..and get a good one.these amplifiers might not be as reliable as the reputable ones.. lets say these amplifiers might cost you rm300. burnt after 6 months. then you would need to buy another amplifier, lets say another cap ayam at rm300. why not save up rm600 to buy a second hand reputable amplifier that would last for more than a year?  |

Added on August 27, 2011, 12:25 pm QUOTE(taaron @ Aug 27 2011, 02:57 AM) that V12 fake amp was the 1st amp that I've bought since 6 years ago, and that time was the start of my "ICE" journey..bought it for RM180 and pair it up with 12inch Audioquartz subwoofer in ported enclosure (cap ayam) for RM200..2ch bridged to subwoofer, another 2ch connect to stock speakers..that time i know nothing about ICE, but the sound quality is acceptable and the sub can really hit hard when you want it to..nice memories Hi taaron, Wow...6 years ago.. hahah i juz only entering ICE bro.. haha Neway..thanks for sharing bro...

QUOTE(taaron @ Aug 27 2011, 03:30 PM) don't get too excited 1st..in later stages, you'll soon realized that plenty of $ flyaway and wasted, but you definitely will learn something on past experience mistakes and will improve it in future..it still depends on how demanding are your ears..hehe hmm...yeah..i guess we all will never satisfy with anything.. haha.. we will always want better.. rite bro ? but then im still confused.. at first.. i only plan with a comp + 4ch amp + sub... then smone adviced to use 2 amps instead.. then i decided to use two 2ch amp..to power my sub and another 2ch to power the comp.. now.. when i went to a shop..he requested me to get a 4ch instead of 2ch...so which means .. one 2ch to power the sub.. and one 4ch to power the comp and the 6 x 9.....  hahahha .. duno what to do already... hahahaha  |

QUOTE(zennn @ Aug 29 2011, 01:23 PM) no need 6x9 lah, fronts & sub enuff. if sub isnt power hungry then u can use a 4ch amp for sub & fronts. if u buy power hungry sub then u may need a separate sub amp, can be 2ch or a monoblock Ok..thanks for the advice bro... shop ofcourse wanna earn money... hahaa Added on August 29, 2011, 3:05 pm QUOTE(kianmengw @ Aug 29 2011, 01:53 PM) I agree with zenn. My current set up is 1 pair 5.25" at front and 1 pair 6x9 at the back. Recently my 6x9 kaput already, so I removed them. When I switch on my player, my system sound even nicer than before la. Hi there kianmengw, thanks for the advice... currently i already installed my kenwood sub powered by Kicker 2ch amp.. But the morel component is powered by HU... so i shall proceed to juz add another 2ch for the component.. i guess i can forget ab the 6x9 .... Hahahah ... thanks again for sharing...
