helo everyone,
i'm driving a iswara aero wif stock sound system.
today just got myself pioneer 1850 HU.
so now looking for some low budget upgrade for the system.
just wan to hv good quality music listen inside my car la.
nonid boom until everyone outside hear.
so far i search around the best choice is either component or 3way speaker.
so hv to decide between this 2 la.
hope pro here recommend a bit.
and...if my budget is around 200,
wat brand and model shud i take?
too many chapalang brand outside duno how to choose...hehe
thx

u also know how to say capalang
u also wanna buy ?
save up a bit more fren
u wont go wrong
save up 100 more i'll give u a decent 5'5 inch component set

i will say save more 200 and i will give u a decent 6.5 " comp set..why 6.5? cos it has more bass..since u dunwan to add amp or others, then u should at least get 6.5"..the bass is more solid and nice than 5.5...try it and u willl know

well ok then...after "research" around i dun see any recommended <200.
so wat about <400?

Hi there,
I'm nt very expert in ICE but I think maybe you should check how many watts can your HU pump out. If 50W x 4 then I think it will be redundant to purchase components or speakers that are more than 50W. Unless you are willing to invest in a amplifier.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm still learning ICE though...hehehe

HU power are just 10-15w RMS power

so meaning to say we should look at RMS rather than Watts???

RMS is the 1 standard of measuring watts

e.g.
100Watts RMS power
1000Watts Peak Power/ P.M.P.O

we normally use RMS power for calculation for level matching
but those cap alang amp will normally use PMPO power to confuse the consumer that will think that the amp will be *powerful*.. PMPO is the peak power...means the power that is available for a certain time .. while the RMS power is real power... that is always available

ok guys...my one is pioneer deh-1850 wif mosfet 50wx4
well anyone explain "mosfet"?
and this HU is make in thailand one oh..is tat usual?
continous power output is 22W x 4(50-15000Hz,5%THD, 4ohm load,both channel driven.)
so...er...now turn back to topic
budget <400..come come....hehe

ya 1 thing i just read from the installation manual,
theres 1 state there use speaker wif minimum 50W 4-8ohm
my ori 2 speaker now was 15W
funny....

50w 4-5 ohm is mean the u need to use a spk at least 50w pmpo.....it match the cd player max output which is 50 pmpo

actually, if u dun plan to add an amp later, u can try those non-branded comp set..that wuit ur budget and use..

but if u wan a real sound upgrade, then the best way is to change to a better comp set first, then if got money just upgrade a amp..

using a 80rms comp set on ur hu wont sound bad,actually i tried using my 5750 to powerup Mb quart comp set..it sound damn nice...but of cos with an amp is ncicer,,,without amp,it just didn maximise the use on the comp set only.wont have any affect on hu and comp set.....

how much is a MBquart comp set?
i saw alot recommend on this for entry level.
but also heard alot fake unit of this brand...
beside saw in zth for soundstream ls.60c at rm300
rms at 130w,
is it a good pair to powerup by my HU?

@kangyoon,
I've saw another guy selling like hot cakes at RM400++
So I'm not sure why the one you saw is selling at RM300 only.
Maybe you can check out first...
Cheers!!!!

Now MB Quart got a lot of freak speaker in market!
Freak mah...so very cheep one lo!
becareful while buying... try to located the Autocraft sticker in bottom of speaker!

Not only MQ Quart, MTX la, Lighting Audio la.... a lot of freak speaker in market and sold very cheep le

buy from the authorized dealer then you should be fine... but i heard tht they charge a bit more... dunno why...

huh? freak?

erm... imitation or factory rejected goods i guess...

Shud be your HU power up the speaker but not the speaker power up the HU!Normally a speaker minimum will need 50rms to drive up it to perform perfectly,but if directly drive with HU power (around 15~22rms) oso enough for normal audience.just if you play in high volume,the output will has distortion and a bit noise lor.
that sounstream comp set shud b the fake product.try mohawk these localise low end speaker shud can meet ur requirement.
if you need more proffessional advise,better goto some acc shop(better goto some reputated shop like KKLAU,KFAUDIO,ACP,SOUNQUEST).tell them ur budget and ask them wat system you shud upgrade.I think they will quote you a satisfy combination choice to meet your expectation.

haiya..bro...i say "power up by HU" ma...
anyway i already bought the soundstream
just wait and try how good it is ....hehe

i'm offering Soundstream Components LS.60C and XSC.6 , both are also 6.5" .
I have one friend who took from me installed it on Waja original clarion head units, it works fine without amplifier, u can hear the difference on the bass and vocal.

got your stuff as promised. Highly recommended. Safe Trader.
