Hey Guys, I plan to upgrade my 2nd hand 2008 Myvi with Stock speaker&HU with limited budget around RM300+

Any recommendation? 6x9 or anything... just throw in some suggestion to me.
Btw I didn't plan to add subwoofer... Just want the SQ, Bass, Treble to be better than original...

Additional Info, usually the car only occupy 2 ppl in front...

reputable brand basic entry level component set around 400-600+
if you going with 6.5" may need to cut/mod panels which would cost a lil more extra.

Wondering which should I start first? HU or speaker? or both? even my current Nissan Sunny Chaplang 6x9 speaker setup with tweeter @RM170 paired with a JVC player @RM190 is much better than myvi current sound system...

Btw cut 6.5 u mean is cut the front one? I'm noob in Ice setup esspecially with myvi... My old Nissan Sunny just change the back 6x9 and add tweeter...

your budget only allows either 1, so i would recommend component set speakers first smile.gif

Actually I haven't get the car yet, which is coming in 2 weeks... but I heard the sound system of Myvi before...
I prefer changing speaker without cutting anything >.<

as for brand wise, use your ears to listen to the different.....we are not buying a brand that looks good in your eyes and think "it's better" in ur mind. We use ears to listen smile.gif
*
But... they will let us test to sound before purchase? PC speaker i know got test unit la... car speaker i duno where to find... Just need to know what is reputable brand so that I can try on first... because sometimes some accesories shop try to con ppl by showing those beaitiful speaker 3 way/4way and say it is reputable brand while actually they are just some cap ayam only...and also the price tag they put there is ridiculously high and give u 50% discount... I was like, boleh percaya ke? hmm.gif

Hey guys, Suddenly I have a thought of changing my plan... which do you guys prefer with budget around 300-380 for Myvi

1) get an active sub, since it also come with built in amp to help enhance front speaker sound nicer(Correct me if I'm wrong with the amp)
2) just change both of the front 4inch speaker

Please suggest! More suggestion also welcome! I just want it to be better than its original sound system rclxms.gif

with that budget u cant even buy an active sub. but u can buy a 4" helix speaker if i'm not mistaken. it will improve ur sound A LOT!!i had listened in a myvi before that.
*
Wow! Active sub so expensive ka... I thought around 380 like that... Btw the 4" speaker will help produce some bass? just light bass? I scare will sounds like laptop speaker with no bass at all (doesn't mean the SQ)
Not sure if you know what I mean sweat.gif

Clarity yes.. but the bass thing is a little exaggerated la. It'll be loads better than stock. But it's nothing compared to a standalone sub.
*
I didn't expect the bass to be like sub la... atleast better than the bass-less stock speaker is good for me... mayb like bass level of some cheapo 6x9 speaker?

QUOTE(superdeemon @ Mar 27 2013, 07:46 AM)
Well bro, with that budget in hand I should say by replacing all front & rear speakers to 'coaxial' speakers system will justify you some degree of better sounding yeah  smile.gif ...I have seen & heard of such effects already
*
I'll take note on that!! Seems like many ppl suggest the change the front speaker first!

QUOTE(will92 @ Mar 27 2013, 07:37 PM)
2) change the front speaker first.

*If budget allow, consider a component set.
*
I'm somewhat noob in ICE... can clarify about "Component set"? does it mean whole set of speaker with same brand?
