if you just want the bass then install many subwoofers lah ... don't bother about tweeter or mid. just bass.

yea.. woofer produce pure bass ....
spl = sound pressure level ... --> boom boom boom!!! . tongue.gif
woofers need amplifier to power it up larr....
no one use player to power up woofers.. doh.gif
woofers confirmed need amp to power it....
you can buy chapalang brands like Saga 2 channel 1000watt pmpo ...cheap cheap.. and power your cheap cheap woofer .. is more than enough...
unless you buy those expensive woofers... rated in RMS ...

i think i finally understand head unit and component set already....
well, i think myvi got its own HU and components di rite?

so i add a 2 channel 100watt amp den 2 10" subwoofer.....

a Mohawk 2 channel amp=RM400 & 2 Boschman 10"subwoofer=RM400

is dis a good setup? or shud i go for some other brands?
