hey guys super noob here,
tot of changing my hu and speakers, will 500 be enough for a decent set?
and may i know what are amps..what they do, where u put them etc? thanks!

500? a good HU would do. otherwise, stay stock.

u can keep the stock HU in tact

in fact, some people would like to change their original speakers to the ones from Alpine - 4" and 6"

ENEOS got offer for the above

lol 2 different replies...what if i change both HU and speakers? 500 not enough?

the head unit deck aledi cost u rm80

head unit rm400 for an entry level...

so what do u say u can do wif de rm20? installation?

Are you want highend ICE or just decent ICE?
What is your requirement?

decent will do la...anyway i guess most stuff would be better than myvi's stock sound system..sigh bass like so flat, smtg like heating milo tin with my fist or smtg...
how much would speakers cost then? mabe i'd like to change the existing one and not add any new ones

i'm driving a myvi too... plz do think of changing the head unit first.. it will sound better than what u haf in the stock rite now rather than changing the speakers.. no regret in changing the HU

about the speakers, they come in plenty of price range... brothers got those "chapalang" speakers starting from rm50... depending on ur budget

that's why i say. rm500 can get u a good HU like Kenwood, Alpine or Pioneer (even if 2nd hand)..

let's say u have more cash in future, u can start upgrading your component speakers, get an amp and a woofer.

a good HU produces a good audio outcome.

2 cents.

dgrebel...i like TechArt Magnum Black (avatar)more .....hehehehe lol

a decent set? full setup? for one of the component can lar i think...

a medium ok HU can do only...

speaker u keep for later upgrade as ur budget kinda not enough...speed on ur HU sin...later onli slowly upgrade...den woof....nex time sure geng geng edi...

huhu.. white made it look majestic. anyway, TechArt Magnum FTW~!

oh so change hu good enough? haha ok that's good
can anyone recommend a good brand or model? btw 400+ kinda hu can oni play cd or also can play mp3?

get pioneer 3950 from cola or howiechoo

another question, where would u guys recommend i go get my hu and get it installed? i'm in melaka btw

is it imaging for myvi is very hard to get right?

actually if RM500 u want to upgrade or change is very hard
only the HU bracket also cost u RM60 to RM80 somethings if i not mistaken...
then HU if u choose china brand will cost around RM150 to RM200..
cap ayam amp RM100++..
speaker..4 inches...ok 1..Rm150..
plus installation fees...
u can add on all together..how much???
my advice is change your HU 1st...
then only take next step to change your speaker...

well it needs some tuning and placing to do it... like any other car its not hard but not easy as well...

but if you use the ori placing then i think it is more difficult... based on my mind mapping la... no real experience with myvis

hmm i can help u to have a nice sound system for u,

do ur handphone have mp3?? if yes get a audio jack for ur phone and get a audio to RCA cable both male,
bot of it cost under RM 40
then get ur self a pre-amp brand calibre 5 channel enough edi under RM90

then find a capalang amp enough edi,brother got sell RM100 below get 800watt amp,i got mine SAGA brand 4 channel can say not bad lar,bass not bad
only use 2 channel to kick 4 5'' mid bass and 4 tweeter
when play techno song still got abit kick

use the rest of the money to find any speaker u can find with that budget
RM250 still can get good 2/3 way speeker from brother lar.

if u know how to install the speeker and stuff ur self u save abit lar
i buy and install my self hobby mar lol

ya for got u need to buy extra 2 more RCA cable for ur HU and ur amp
so another 50 bucks, so budget for speeker RM200

so installation part,
HU connect to pre-amp, audio jack connect to pre-amp,
then at pre-amp output connect to amp. so the speeker no need to teach edi lor.
with the pre-amp u can switch channel so u can use the HU or mp3 player/handphone

For my myvi...I only installed an amp n sub....along with a new bracket (carbon fiber) and a new HU. As for speakers...the stock ones are doin fine for me. If ur one that needs clarity n like to turn on the volume...then u will need to change the speakers.

personally i think an component set will give better clarity than a hu, due to the extra tweeters and passive crossover. just my humble opinion, dont shoot me if im wrong.

based on my experience on my Vi
take one 10 or 12 inch woofer plus a set of tweeter will do
but its depend on your budget to get better or worse quality product

If possible get amp for ur Myvi
