ok now it seems my thread is a little hard for you guys to comment. so i'll change it since i've got a budget already. anything below 1.5k is fine. well if its necessary i can stretch it to 2k.

i wan to change the audio system to something more on powerful bass. and also replace the original audio components which i'll post some pictures to show how its like. for easy review from the u guys, the pro

this small speaker is at the front at both sides. right above the air cond.

i've seen some audio sets which came with those, but i'm not sure whether it is necessary or not. please advice

this is the speaker at the back seat..


there is this speaker in the front i missed out earlier..


and of course i would add a woofer at the trunk

my taste of music is heavy metal.

thx in advance

1st ... What kind of music you go for? SQ or SPL?
2nd Kicker (K40) 4" Mid Bass Speaker? Why you need it... You want change Diamond Audio 6.5" Component to 3 way by add 4" mid?
3rd ..Becareful while buying JL Audio 12W3V2 D4 12" Subwoofer ..a lot imitation.. Why you don't consider JL Audio 12W3V3 D4 12" Subwoofer (still new ...not yet imitation guar)

i mean should i get the diamond audio 6.5" or the kicker k40.

JL subwoofer i know some one selling. so can be trusted

tht diamond in your pic is a fake thing... the logo at the crossover should be silver i colour last i know...

erm.. looks a bit fake eh..
see the edge of the cone
like cheapskate paper cone lidat

omg. fake? swt.. then what should i get?

i think ur gonna get these thing from lelong rite? lolz

thread updated. please advice

u dun even state wat music taste, wat ice mod style u wan...how ppl gonna help u?

the only mentioned thing is u wan a bassy system...rite?

then i suggest u, change front mid bass to 8", then back use 6x9(LPF) then add a sub..then it should give u enuff massive bass to shake ur car...

sorry forgot to mention again >"<

hmmm.. 0k 0k.. then i suppose u know what head unit u r using rite? cd player / cassete player? brand? model?

some cd mp3 player.. i think its sony.. lol.. does the player really matter? and also.. i would like to get a amp with auxiliary jack input too..

and if possible.. preferably budget under 1.5k i will extend if its worth the money by adding few hundreds for far more better quality.

should be enough right? less than 1.5k for component, amp, woofer.

it's a healthy budget for beginner.. i've aledi pinned up some topics regarding the setup.. maybe u can go ahead and have look so that u will know how the setup runs..

basically u will need a player that provides RCA output.. about the aux input, it will b from the player.. amplifier only has 1 input which is for the player..

so.. u now can plan ur budget from speakers, amp and sub..

player with aux input 500 bucks leh got any other brand cheaper than u know?

updated 1st post again. i missed out a speaker lol

~shakey~~shakey~~~~

if you just want your car to go boom boom only
then forget about boot space and get 2 12" or above subs with a monoblock power pull enough to power them

hey its necessary to get a amp if i get subwoofer right?

for sure u'll need an amp to drive the woofer.. o else how u expect a 8"-12" woofer to drivE? he! he!
