Hey guys, will getting my new CIVIC FD in few days......would want to add in sub and amp to my car to upgrade my sound system. Can any pro here recommend with a budget of 2k. oh yeah, I like bass....and prefer hogh quality brands not those ayam brand pls.....THX!!!

2k can get average brand if u wan tough quality...

brand such as??? and Hifonics good ah bro????

so-so only...

Ok then.....now forget the budget....suggest me the best sound system i can put in my civic......

The 'best' sound system can range into the realm of 5-figure, or even 6-figure amounts. So just state your budget and stick with it. Me suggests setting a target of <10k first

Wah...!!! <10k is alot for just upgrade sound system.....not gonna go competition lo.....my maximum budget also 4k......still a student, income slow lo....haha

then why you said best sound system?

then you spend 4k liao... then slowly slowly you upgrade till 10k la...

any brand of products recommendations for 4k???

this is exactly what happened to me, so dont think he is joking, source for 2nd hand stuff, IMHO you can get good quality product at great prices, like many sifu said, attend tt or go to audio shops and learn which one to change first or tell them what do you need. choosing audio shops can be tricky so choose wisely, im not gona name any shops, but you can search the forum and find out the good ones. again, remember what bro craziechild said.

Thank you for ur advise bro.....any brand recommendations????

Well, there are many reputable shops you can go for. Best you contact them and give them your budget.

The more reputable ones would be Audio Creations, EA Autoworks, KK Lau Audio, KF Audio etc~

Mine was done by Audio Creations though

up to you who you want to go for

Ok.....thank you bro......i will contact them..

Make sure they offer after good sales service...you know la those aeroplane noise... some installer like to wash hands giving out all sorts of excuses but clever in giving advice.

If you like bass, then first u go for 12" or 15" woofers , preferrably double magnet/ double voice coils, customade a ported/ vented box. Get a 2-channel mono amp... I think budget RM2k can get some decent brand. if you tight on budget, put one 15" or one 12" sufficient liao... next time only put two if u want more bass...

More importantly, rms power to feed the sub, power supply upgrade for feng tau kaki, the design of the box and most important is ur TUNING

those cheepo RDS or Kicker sub with big big enclosure can boom ur head away

Can install Alpine Type R Component front Speaker + Roger 4chn Power Amp or May Add Active Subwoofer under Sit ~
