I'm looking for a 4" component set for my Myvi. Budget is less than RM500. I don't have any amp and I'm not sure with this limited budget, could I get an amp. And if without amp, will the current stock player able to work with the speaker. I've been going through the forums (both here and Myvi club) and found that the price for all recomended items nearly scare me off. So my last effort is to ask for some guide here. I don't need anything fancy here, just something better than the stock. If anyone has heard of S2.1D, that kind of sound quality shall make me very happy.
Information on brand and place to install will be very helpful. Thanks.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jul 3 2006, 09:36 PM) i second this statement  stay away from sony when it comes to ICE. they aint that good... ull most likely be able to get better things for a cheaper price. plus their HUs aint as good as they used to be.... ever since the first xplod came out their HUs been crap...CDs starts skipping in a few short months, spoil, etc etc. @kelvinyam loon is right... 4" is a waste of money... rm500 can get u a pretty decent low end 6" comps already. mebbe can check the soundstream someone was selling in the bulk section. or can do a bit of leg work and see what ur options are. Agree that this is the option most people suggested. But cutting the door panel is not something I want to do, it's ugly. On top of that, RM200+ for that job will only reduce my budget to less than RM300, which I think I could hardly get any component speaker. So back to my same old question, any recommendation for 4"? Any amp to be included in the package?

I've installed a cheapo China made amp yesterday. The overall sound is tighter now. RM140 for a 2-channel amp, can I demand more? I get someone to install the amp for RM70. So a total investment of RM210, this thing is going to stay very long in my car, unless it dies off.
After consulting a few Gurus, upgrading the 4" front speaker does not justify the price, unless I want to cut the door panel off and throw in a 6". So I'll be saving another RM200-RM300.

QUOTE(loon1031 @ Jul 17 2006, 12:37 AM) Oh...RM140 for 2 channel amp... U hope so much for amp RM140 loh.. Just want tell u... ICE = how much you spent how good you get... also need a good tuning lol.. Can't agree more on that. If I had 100 units of RM10k, I don't mind spending a unit on ICE, and probably I won't be driving a MyVi. And did I say I was hoping that much for this RM140 amp? Nah, something better than the stock is good enough. QUOTE(howiechoo @ Jul 17 2006, 09:46 PM) erm, that's ur point..but from my point and real world experience, i had never saw a oem hu that sound ok/ sound good in proton and perodua....and i dun think there will be any aftermarket sound processor for myvi hu...only top of the line/pure deck hu will have those additional processor since some of them are only a bit reader without DAC. It'll be interesting to see any pure deck and external DAC, kinda shifting the audiophiles into cars. But I guess top line manufacturers will still intergrate the DAC into their units.
