Hi All Sifu, I'm looking for a really really fine speakers system, without subwoofer, budget around 1K, currenly can't listen to my Mazda 2 sound system, treble sound quite sharp, lack romantic and sweet tone, bass a bit too emphasize, though it can sound distort at higher volume on some tracks notworthy.gif

Change ur car player and see... mo point upgrading ur speakers and ur Head unit is original..

if u want to listen everything high-end, surely it's gonna cost u a bomb.. unless you're willing to do step by step..

Player with higher voltage output should give you some heads up and of course do read up about the headunits before buying it

hmm, I've installed the Infinity Kappa 60.11cs component speakers, original Mazda 2 headunit remain there, the mid this time sound at least ok to me, 7/10 songs can listen, original tweeter like 4/10 songs listenable, but I think I'm still figuring what amp/headunit mod I can do to improve the sound furthermore, to make it more romantic & powerful on some bass and less edgy and more natural on some treble, guess I'll have to trial and error to find out  whistling.gif  yawn.gif

Personal preference will be either kenwood or pioneer.. but alpine is good too.. it all depends how deep is ur pockets.hehehehe

Need recommendation for my 2006 Altis.

The player can't read Disc anymore. I think should be a 2-din. (old style one, no touch screen just alot of buttons)

I don't expect GPS or ability to watch movie, just want a relible one.

Concerns:
1. I have seen some 1-din players which is below 300 that does the job (CD, USB etc) but appearance wise there will be some extra space after that

2. Any good and budget 2-Din? Prefer not to touch those OEM / China ones. (Budget say 600-800?)
*
If looking around 600-800 I think Sony got... better than oem ones right and it's double din..

recently my sister changed a cheapo RM200 head unit (pioneer), but realised her myvi sound much better than my myvi..

Thought want to spend a minimal fortune to improve the sound (<Rm500). What is my best bet?

P/S addon: if it support as good headsest I am willing to top up since my job requires me to call a lot.
*
Perhaps u can change the head unit.. 500 for head unit can get good ones already.. head down to brothers in kj.. they got good offers and please don't install with them

my sister's car was insatlled in Brothers, i think installation cost RM200

- My ride: stock 2.0 Inspira
- Prefers SQ/SPL/SQL: SQ
- File format/medium used for my source: Bluetooth Spotify stream (320kbps MP3), USB 320kbps MP3, radio (very rarely), loseless format is not needed as I only use it at home
- Music genre: electro, rock, pop, jazz, and many other, but I don't like to limit myself to these genre so I prefer a focus on clarity, jack-of-all-trade sound system
- Budget: <RM2000
- Setup type preferences: any
- Other requirements (if any):
- I want to retain the ability to control HU with steering wheel, the setup need to be compatible with Inspira steering control
- my stock speaker already show sign of distortion, its the reason I want to upgrade my car system, so fixing it is my priority
- prefer to have bluetooth to pickup call (like Inspira original HU)
- touchscreen / GPS is not needed
*
Now days aftermarket car players has with steering control adapter.. additional cost but I feel it's way better than original proton player.. you would be surprise tho.. cheapest Bluetooth is kenwood single din around 3xx ny..

Speakers perhaps u can survey 1st lahh bro

Hi all,

1pc of my mid bass is not functioning. It is best to go whole set new or just replace the mid bass speaker? What's the right size for Saga BLM?

Currently using Kenwood component set with 5.25" mid bass. (Set from my previous ride)

Cheers.

6.5 inch also can pasang...

New to this.. Previously I'm quite crazy over all these audio stuffs, owned a pair of customs and stuffs.. New to this car audio.

Any suggestions on how to get started? I'm driving an honda crz, what's a good budget setup to get started? I listen to primarily EDM, Dj mixes.. More inclined towards bass!
*
Simple set up can be done... just maintain your stock speakers and tweets... change your player to perhaps kenwood or pioneer.. see your budget lahh if it permits go for double din if not single din would do the trick... add one monoblock amp and also woofer.. should be just fine.. if you got extra cash.. change your front speakers into a component set
