I've been wanting to upgrade my sound system lately. My HU is Blaupunkt and currently running on OEM rear and front speakers.
I went to a car acc jz now and they recommended me JL complete set of components for RM380 + installation. Anyone heard of JL?
Then JL sub for RM380+ using one monoblock (Rm600) to power it. Gosh!~ $$ Anyone heard of the brand JL? How is it? Do you think a moderate RM400++ monoblock is enough to power it?

Huh? What do you mean by xxx?
I Dunno, saw it in a JL box complete with tweeters, croosovers etc... It's not at shop but at house one. So might be cheaper. I dunno. It's XR version I guess.
Req? I dunno much, I simply need add bass to my current system with budget less than RM1k

No point keep telling him trying the woofer out, if he had never heard an original unit playing, he probably wouldn't notice the one playing is fake anyway. For subs especially, even if there's a pair, one is a fake, one is an original, being A/B tested, i guess some people wouldn't even notice the difference. And again, with this kind of instances of selling fakies, some people might be having originals on the demo board but his speakers are fakies.

The performance WOULD definitely be different, you can't exactly copy an item EXACTLY as in 100%, can you? And the price really very much reflects it's quality of parts used.
