QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Oct 21 2012, 06:17 AM) if you top up just 100 or so, you can actually change a whole component set do you already have a component set and only have the tweeters spoiled? Component set? I actually have a quite decent setup my dad inherited to me already - not too sure what is what but I've got. Focus is on the back - for the front I have two tweeters and two mid-range ones, what you call them I'm not too sure.  Just that recently one of the tweeters died out & I was thinking of swapping it out for a new pair. Since you said I could get a component set from around 100, do recommend me a good pair of tweeters - I don't mind spending around 150-300 for a decent pair!

The pic above shows my rear setup - not too shabby I guess? It's only the front tweeters that I want to switch out. How much would that cost around? Thanks for the tip btw.

Thanks for the tip btw. most SQ setup would ignore the rear  like i said, if you're willing to top up a bit you can get an entire component set, or go on a budget and just replace the tweeters  tweeters alone probably less than 100-300 i believe

Howie sold me these mysterious unbranded tweeters which are comparable to my old Dynaudios. Unbelievably good tweeters.
But they are a little more than the "RM100 - RM300" price range Quazacolt recommended. Actually a lot more. But well worth the money.

This used to be a driver's car for us to sit behind and relax one hahah. Any recommended brands/brands to stay away from? I read the brands topic in the forum but just wondering if there is any that I should know about.

I read the brands topic in the forum but just wondering if there is any that I should know about. yeap sq = sound quality. there's always room to change if you're becoming the driver yourself heh as for brands, way too many brands to stay away of, or stick towards to. additionally there are some brandless budget equipments/gears that are quite decent too as izso mentioned. best if you can do some research urself/ask around, then post up specific brands for us to comment

Hi Sifus,
noobs wants to ask a question. I want to upgrade my stock HU and interested with pioneer HU.
Question is, what is the major difference between these 3? Since when I compare the spec list, all the same except the mixtrax in 5 series and motorized flap face in 9.
DEH-9450UB DEH-7450SD DEH-5450SD
is it worth to buy the DEH-9450UB if i only want to upgrade the HU and keep the rest in default?

Interesting, thanks a lot for your info. ^^
Added on October 25, 2012, 6:33 pmAnyway, 1 more quick question... Decided to buy DEH-5450SD. However I realize that the AUX in is in front, not in back....
I'm planned to use my phone (android) as source using 3.5mm jack through the AUX input. and maybe want to use USB to charge my phone as well
Is it possible to combine both through USB and charging function using custom cable with 1 male USB === 1 Female USB + 3.5mm jack? So I dont need to plug any cable to HU's AUX input.
