Current ice in myvi, HU (RCA x1), 2-ways 4" speaker, amp+woofer.
Plan to upgrade, HU (RCA x2 n above), add another amp for power the 2-ways 4" speaker.
Question is, will it make different with my current one, or just minor diff like louder abit for the speaker coz power by amp, my speaker easy to power, just need 25rms gaodin...tq

what you want to achieve btw?

voice loud without harm speakers, speaker without power by amp if u turn up volume, it will harm ur speaker, right?

you need to understand how amp/speaker works as your current goal/objective is very flawed.

as for this post's question: no.
it just wont go louder than what your HU can provide towards the speaker. (or what your speakers are capable of anyways)

having amp wont protect your speaker being "harmed" when you go loud either, in fact, having an amp has a much higher chance to fry your speakers as you have greater capabilities to go louder.

I think yours currently is stock HU, right?

Then just change HU first lor, you should notice a lot of improvement already.

Adding amp for the 4" ah, not sure if it is a wise investment.

Just try change the HU first lah, you should enjoy a better improvement already.

HU suggestion : P80 RSII.

Yeap,P80RSII

+1

if you wan to go loud... install more drivers not more amps.

Price of a P80RSII also

try search for used unit as long in good condition,kawtim

i ord upgrade to pioneer 2350, problem is tis hu only hav 1 rca...so tat is no point for me to power up my 4" speaker with amp? just use hu gaodin?

Change Component will more effect ~

problem is i dont willing to cut & do door panel for the 6.5"...haha

have to sacrifice lor can refer to mr wong thread for myvi midbass mounting

mr. wong thread for myvi really gg...but i haven't into tat stage yet, i mean SQ, stil in SPL...is it big dif for single coil n double coil woofer? single for in car?, double can outdoor?

usually double coil woofer can handle more power..

than i guess for the moment just stick to my current set...since not much dif if upgrade...unless components+p80sr2...lol

1 pair RCA output is good enough... there is no limit to how many amps you can install with one 1 pair RCA output... here is what you do...

1. get a pre-amp stage, i.e. line driver, e-xover, EQ, processors.
then basically you will have at least 2 pair RCA outputs...

2. get an amp that has RCA line outputs.

3. get an amp with "hi-input"/line input. it can be a 4ch amp, 6ch amp...

double coil or single coil doesnt make any difference on the power/input power/etc...

what you get with double coil is basically just more wiring options. with this wiring options, you could save your money on the amp selections.

i.e. buy a 300w rms amp @ 4ohm, 600w rms @ 2ohm to drive 2 units of 300wrms @ 4ohm single coil subwoofer. more cheaper

buy a 600w rms @ 4ohm, 1200w rms @ 2ohm amp to drive 2 unis of 300w rms @ 4ohm double coil sub. more expensive.

but on both setup, each subs needs only 300w rms, performs only like a 300w rms subs. pay more, same results.

yes you could wire the second setup to 1ohm. but amps that performs 1ohm stable operations is going to cost more.

SPL? How come you never mentioned about speakers belakang?

mr wong's mod on the doors are superb, but need to leave the car. haih

Usually premiun quality installation requires longer time and days to complete..

aduh , check my 1st post, i do say amp+woofer liao oh...
ok, my current setup is like tis: pioneer+2ways speaker for front, while rear direct amp+woofer, no speaker at all...

SPL = The more the merrier.

You want loud, isn't it?

True...add more speakers

To go louder without sacrificing clarity just add more speakers?

im a myvi ICE-er, n after much consideration, ive decided 2 finally go ahead 2 mod my door panels 2 fit a proper 6.6 component set. my old 4" setup juz cant deliver the ummmpphh that i want..

was quoted 300 4 the door mod, (400 if i want the holder 2 be aluminium) + stellar component set. im not really familiar wit this brand, but was assured it was gud entry level stuff n i did some research bout it, turned out 2 be a local brand.. but the physical quality looks ok, n plus the installer said he used that brand b4 4 competition b4.. the component hes giving me 900..

u guys think its a gud deal??

RM900 could get you a better basic/entry level component sets...

i dont think so.

6.5" component I guess go for domination dlite? Tat entry level cost u 600++, right?

izit some ameron mk2 like that? a lot of ppl recommending this particular model too..some will said win SQ comp at singapore la, brunei la..bla bla bla...for rm900..u can look for more branded brands..like MOREL, DOMINATION and some FOCAL..do check out

Components usual need more power like amp tat have 75rms at least, how's ur setup

i have a 4ch amp that would be sufficient 2 power up those components.. b4 this i was using 4" 2way 4 the front, n 6.5" components at the back.. was advised thats wrong, so now im doin it back properly.. gettin rid of those speakers n gettin a proper 6.5" entry level sq component at the front..

hi... thinking want to change the rear door panel speaker to better quality (better bass)... get 1 shop at puchong offer me rm140 for mohawk 2 ways speaker...
Q1. Is it worth to buy it, as 1 side of speaker already spoil after 3 mths i got the myvi.

Q2. Is that big different?

Q3. How many inch are the speaker on the rear door panel? 4" or 6"??

Q1 personally i dont think its worth it

Q2 may or may not have big difference, this depends on how bad your speakers were

Q3 door panels typically 6.5"

hi why u no upgrade front first?

front 1 is clear sound, and rear 1 is for bass sound.... am i correct??
i choose to upgrade rear 1, due to 1 of it already spoilt.....

Yes u are correct
But if your rear speaker kaput just replace
Get coaxial speakers

rear speaker kaput just cut the wires off la

I had upgrade my ice...HU is Alpine 117, components Focal PS165 (power by 117), then 2ch amp + woofer, plan upgrade to 4ch amp (pull midbass + woofer), tweeter let 117 handle...any comments?

Seems like u r more into SQ now. 117 is a gud choice as it has quite powerful pre-output-4v. Haha...let the new 4 chnl handle da tweeter & midbass lo if u r playing active system. remain da 2 chnl to power ur sub. Juz my little opinion..tq

hi.. i like to upgrade subwoofer (double coil and double magnet) and monoblock amp to my myvi..
please give suggestion to choose best amp and subwoofer for my budget..
monoblock RM 800- RM 1200
subwoofer RM 400- RM 500..

can i add two subwoofer... how to choose rms...? ohm ? brand?

please advices

Rms and ohm load of sub and monoblock should be compatible. For example, 2ohm double voice coil sub with 250w rms can be wired to 4ohm load. So it could be matched with any monoblock which can put out at least 250w rms @ 4 ohm.

thanx saranjeevi

With amp monoblock is better:
BOSS AUDIO CHAOS EXXTREME 1200W RMS @ RM 899 My Webpage
Pioneer GM-D8601 @ RM789 .
Alpine MRX-M55 @ RM700

with subwoofer is better:
Soundstream PXW-12 400W RMS Dual Voice Coil 4 ohm @ RM 359
Stellar 12” DVC SUBWOOFER 400W RMS Dual-2 Ohm @ RM 600 My Webpage
ALPINE SWR-12D4 1000W RMS DVC SUB dual 4-ohm voice coils @ RM 699 My Webpage


Please advices..
