Can't spend that much, i'll be getting a new car in like 3 years and it'll prolly take me a year in itself to save up 3k-4k with a part timers pay. 1k-1.5k is the best I can do.

go automotive garage hunt for used hu/component speakers from reputable brand
probably less than 500-1k.

have to forget about amp/woofer/bass for the time being until your new car/get more money

shops usually sell brand new, and with low budget they tend to offer cap ayam.

ask howiechoo if he can cut you a good deal or alternative solutions for cheaper price according to your budget smile.gif

My ride: Perodua MyVi 1st Gen
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: I want SQL. But should have a good kick for rock music and not boom boom when I listen to like trance.
- File format/medium used for my source: MP3
- Music genre: instrumental, pop, rock, R&B, Trance
- Budget: Preferably around RM1000 but can +- like maybe RM200-300 for HU and rest on Speaker and required stuff
- Setup type preferences: I'm new any recommendations?
- Other requirements (if any): New HU since my current HU only accepts CD's and apparently it scratches my CD's...something that can accept USB? Maybe an AMP if needed? Also recommend me a place to bring my car to, to upgrade xD cuz I definitely can't do it myself haha

I'll be using the MyVi for awhile and I hate being stuck in a jam without having good music haha, so i'm looking for a entry level setup but I don't want something lousy.

Maybe something that makes me go "Wow I can't believe something at this price would sounds good"

I'm headphone audiophile atm xD so i'm absolutely new to ICE and wanna improve the sound of my car.

A further examples of music I listen to :
Michael buble, Adam Lambert, The Piano Guys, Enrique Iglesias, Usher, Lady Gaga, Journey, Goo Goo Dolls, Yellowcard.

from ur budget and the source you can get (i read from above comment), you better just set up a simple setup that consist of a front spk change and a active sub....This is way more more better than your oem already and it give u most of the sound that you can hear......about 1k can get some decent spk and actve sub....till u get new car, maybe their system is already ok to you...so u move ur current active sub to the new car....

Hi all,

Im driving sonata yf 2011 model for the past 2 years. So far, i have only change the headunit to a touchscreen model.

I plan to upgrade the existing sound system but my budget is around RM1k.

Is there any suggestions for this?

I'm more towards SQL and i would prefer a little bit of bass.

Hello to all the sifus and experts in ICE out there.. need some advice

Kinda new and learning abt ICE. Driving a MYVI ezi 1.3, the factory HU (2din) and speakers need more juice so planning to change out. Required setup is good sound quality with decent bass (strong enough for my ears to hear not for my neighbours) for any kind of songs thumbup.gif max budget is Rm2k!

The setup as follows.

1. HU Alpine CDE-143EBT
2. Soundstream Picasso P4.800 800W 4-Channel Car Amplifier.
3. Focal Performance Subwoofer P 30 12" 4-ohm (RMS 50-250Watt)
4. Haven't decided on a COMPONENT SYSTEM for the rear but maintaining the factory 4" speaker infront connected straight to head unit.


Guys please advise, not sure if the above set up plays well or is an overkill for a small car. unsure.gif

and a suggestion for a decent COMPONENT SYSTEM for the rear for the mentioned setup.


Thanks Peeps notworthy.gif

hi everybody, i'm driving a Mitsubishi Attrage and i'm thinking of upgrading my front speakers. Right now i'm considering the
- JBL GTO6508C 6.5' 210W 2-Way Component Speaker or
- ROCKFORD FOSGATE FNX2614 6.5' 2-Way Car Component Speaker

Which is a better buy in terms of sound clarity and bass?

thanks in advance.

Yes. They claimed it to be original. Is there a possibility that it is fake?
