How'd you find that out?

And whoever told you is lying through their teeth me thinks.

Malaysia sommore. I think what might have happened is the distributor stopped importing the brand? BA hasn't stopped making ICE.

Hi all, i need recommendation of shops to buy a new car audio console.

- My ride: Proton iswara aeroback
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: just the normal one. I dun hav woofer or surround sound system
- File format/medium used for my source: mp3, wma. must have usb thumb drive port and radio. cd player not neccessary
- Music genre: normal genre
- Budget: im not sure hows the price like... but i will b happy if i only need to spend abt rm200- 300 
- Setup type preferences:  normal
- Other requirements (if any): remote control but not a must (because quite hard to press on the dash board while driving) must be a good quality; that means wont spoil easily, and sound quality must be similar or better to the one i have now which is clarion; another thing i prefer is alot of radio presets button as i listen to many radio station at once

any recommended shops please?? thanx alot  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

change the two speakers to 2 way coaxials, and add 6x9 coaxials at the back, should cover it with your budget

or. save up for better component set speakers wink.gif

Hi Guys,

Need your opinion.

- My ride: Saga flx
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: SQL
- File format/medium used for my source: mp3 from USB, cd, tuner
- Music genre: All
- Budget: RM1,000

Right now I'm using stock HU and Component.

I want to change HU first with stated budget. Or should I change Component first?
*
top up maybe 100-300 can change both for best effect wink.gif

Can suggest what sort of HU and Component if I top up to RM1300?
*
alpine/pioneer entry level, some rm400-600+/-
then component speaker got many brands can look up this thread, or the brands thread which have previous posters giving lists of brands to look out for. best if you can audition them smile.gif

I was looking at either the DEH2450 or the GT500 due to both have RDS, which I want, but Sony has additional Time Alignment and 7 band EQ, which gives me abit more flexibility.

But is Sony that bad when it comes to reliability? sad.gif

Also, why is the U453 a good choice? smile.gif

Thanks!

personally, pioneer (if you can even get one within rm350 lol) since pioneer (and alpine) is what most/regular ICE'rs go for smile.gif

My ride: Suzuki Swift
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: SQL (is this both sq and spl?)
- File format/medium used for my source: mp3 from USB, cd, tuner
- Music genre: All

CURRENT SETUP:
hu : stock Blaupunkt
front : morel maximo 6.5
rear : stock from infront
amp : ayam brand 4ch 2000w (by sh@rty 5)
sub : small seal box with unknown brand sub (by sh@rty 5)

planning to change the HU in order to get better quality sound (budget less 600-800 if can for HU only)..

want to change amp also cause someone said i should take alpine or pioneer to power up the 90w morel.. will the ayam brand spoilt the morel? change amp, will it sound better?

thanks in advance for answering.. totally new to ICE..
*
budget good enough for a entry-mid level alpine/pioneer HU (may need to top up a bit for the mid level)

ayam brand amp, if can pakai, you satisfied, no problem then. and no i dont think they will "spoil" the morel unless the amp are made of poor quality and have voltage surges or whatever. which i believe, AFAIK, typically the amp will fry itself instead of the speakers.

get an entry/mid level 2 way component set speakers and settle for that. if you want more, consider saving up more for amp/sub upgrade

As for now , front and back spk is not the stock anymore .
Also got 10" under the seat .
Any idea on what to add ?
Totally newbie here .  rclxub.gif

if you satisfied, dont add.

if not satisfied, consider removing rear (if you dont need to deal with back passengers much), replace fronts. sell off rear/front to salvage some money, or trade ins, get a reputable brand component set

Halloo,, Sifu-Sidu sekalian,,

  Need some help and advises,,,cox I'm desperate liauuu,, Orely pump in money and dun get what I should have..... sad.gif

- My ride: Iswara Saloon
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: SQL
- Music genre: All

My stuff below (all is new set) and is below set worth for RM3,500 excluding HU Kenwood.?? ;;

Kenwood U453
Ameron AMA486D
Ameron AM616 component but not using crossover (x1set only)
Ameron AMA516D
Ameron AM1296 (x1 unit with Vented box only)

Is this set good enough.? It's recommended by my accessory shop fren which this product he carry. Cause I dun feel punching enough and the vocal sound not that clear (My expectation in on Entry only not too much kuahh ehiehieh). Is it due to the tuning part.? Cox I see he is in difficulty to get the tuning sound for what I want.
*
pump in peanuts, get peanuts lo.

ameron, considered chicken brand. look up for reputable brands (search this thread, or that other "brand thread" or even my "ICE journey thread") to get an idea on what kinda brands, and how much they cost smile.gif
