rm500-1k lol

It was plenty of power to feed the sub. Just the way it sounds was too 'soft'. Wasn't punchy and too 'smooth' sounding for my liking. 1ohm/2ohm seems to be more punchy.

RM300 subs... LOL.. ok. All the same then.

hahaha. thanks so much brah for the help. my budget is RM1k My audio in car is everything stock. include player... if more than 1k, it's okay too.. i have been riding with others, i found out tat i heard vibrating sound when the bass is too much, basically from the doors, okay, bro, please recommend me some brand? my location is kuching... whenever i ask my fren, wat i get is >>> Buy a subwoofer and amp for around RM400 then u got ur bass. lol

- need sound proofing

- its not as simple and cheap as that. especially you want quality/quantity of bass

yeah, i saw a thread abt sound proofing~ this right?
Anyway~ Bro, tat's wat i am talking abt.. i wan quality~ but i am new, i scared kena cheat when i am going to buy the subwoofer + amp later.. and should i change the speaker at the door side thr? and behind? gotta need more advice from ICE sifus~ Thank you in advance

hey, newbie here also. driving a 05 chevrolet aveo. looking for a full set. more towards the bass side. budget around 1k +-

yeah that thread is a good reference material.

for full set ICE, want good bass, you're looking to at least 3-4k++

rear speakers no need touch, focus on front component set + HU + amp (4channel to drive both comp set and woofer) and of course a sub woofer, 12" ported sub.

tat's sweet... If we talking abt 2k < x <1k is it ok?
Front component set is wat? player? HU is wat? O.O any web tat i can learn more abt tat? Sometimes cant google the right thing..

under 2k, chicken brand no problem.

a pair of tweeters and 6.5" mid/mid bass 2 way setup (3 way = tweeters + mid + mid bass)

HU = head unit, the player, be it cd or usb

cant help you there bro. i dont really look into chicken brands

LOLOLOL

Thanks for the help by the way, brah.. hahaha waiting some sifu who know chicken brand

You can try Mohawk thou.

Since you like bass only, so I won't go detail into the sound lar.

2K should be ok, I guess. Change from HU (since you only need USB) to speakers to amp tp sub.

Detail price, sorry no idea. You will need to survey yourself with the budget in mind.

This is not cap ayam. This is cap Mohawk!

Isnt there a KCH Icer group? Maybe they can reco a better installer and whatever is available there.

Not true la. 2k+ budget can get you a decent setup but you need a helluva lot of patience and scout at the right places. Get everything 2nd hand.

Friend of mine did his entire 3-way setup for RM2.5k budget. Everything he bought was either 2nd or 3rd hand.

- Northcreek tweeters
- Hybrid mids
- A/D/S/ midbass
- Cap itik ayam speaker cables
- Cap itik ayam RCA cables
- Alpine 9853
- PHD2200 and A/D/S/ amps
- Helix dark blue + sealed enclosure sub

All for 2.5k, ok what. Not cap ayam ler except for speakers wires and RCA. The installation was DIY though so that's some savings already.

Added on July 4, 2012, 5:50 pmIf I were you, I'd buy some sound dampening material like Sikadamp, Dynamat Extreme, etc and DIY dampen the areas that are rattling. Meaning you'd have to get down and dirty but at least that'll give you something to do over the weekend (assuming you don't have a girlfriend).

Then invest in a high sensitivity component set like the Rainbow SLX speakers. They work bloody well with stock HU and if you were in KL I could let you hear it in my Myvi (stock HU).

Then finally when you have the time and money throw in a 4-channel amp to whack the front components and a sub at the same time (for $ saving la).

That's the cheapest you can go for decent SQ + bass. Don't rush ICE. If you do it'll cost more to keep upgrading upgrading and upgrading. Been there done that.

im talking from an everything brand new no fuss no scouting/patience point of view.

because honestly, time is also money to me, time wasted to scout, and deal with potential issues acquiring 2nd hand (eg: worn drivers, or problematic boards/amp/HU/caps etc) are time wasted and time = money. hell, if eventually you have to replace them sooner than their supposed lifespan (eg: buying brand new) that also directly mean losing money.

preference/perspective. if his budget mentioned that he is willing to go for 2nd hand/used items, obviously i would reply similarly the way you did

=edit=
you know what, let me update the first post template. so people on budget can specify as well if they willing to go for used items

HU = Head Unit = your player.

In KL the Rainbow SLX is about RM800 give or take. My Myvi has the stock HU connected to the Rainbow SLX component set and that's it. I recently added an active subwoofer under the seat and that's all I plan to do to the car. My Myvi is pretty much stock inside and out.

DIY installation is quite simple once you understand how things are connected and how they work. Do you know how to strip the interior of your Kancil?
