QUOTE(9926 @ Apr 15 2020, 12:08 PM) Hi all, currently having a Kia Cerato with stock HU (CBU small screen unit, not the 8 inch DVD) and speaker, added an active subwoofer about 6 months ago. All this while was quite satisfy with the performance but few weeks ago had a chance to listen to a morel maximus installed in my friend Proton Persona 2019, power by stock HU only. The sound suit my liking, and i am wondering if I replace my stock speaker to the same one, will it give the same outcome despite having different head unit? I don't mind to change the speaker but I wish to retain my ori headunit as I have seen the other cerato with aftermarket headunit, I don't like the look of the center console with the aftermarket casing and furthermore I am satisfy with the current HU as well. Also notice a lot of tread here mentioning about DSP, if install DSP only while maintaining all stock audio component, will the sound be different as well? need some advise, thanks. Surely adding DSP will enhance the sound because DSP have tuning mechanism. Nowadays DSP also comes with built in amplifier so it has 2 functions. Giving more power and also tuning the sound. But it also depends on speaker. the dsp might have the power and tuning capability but the sound will be play through the speakers.. Perhaps you can try replace the speaker first. If still feel it lack something then can add the DSP. And also generally the DSP will be cost more than the speaker. iirc Morel Maximus is around RM7xx range and entry level DSP will be more than 1k at least.. |

QUOTE(9926 @ Apr 15 2020, 05:44 PM) Thanks for the info, what are the key criteria to take note when choosing DSP? I have seen quite a few brand and price ranging from 700 - 3K, huge different. Morel Maximus cost around 1K when my friend install last year, if you happen to know cheaper price, appreciate if you could share with me. Maximus is latest version i guess.. Previously used Morel Maximo in my car, which i bought around rm600 during promo.. Not sure maximus is same price or higher than that bro.. Where is your location bro, perhaps can try check in nearby audio shops.. For DSP, price is based on the brand and spec.. Checkout EA Autoworks and Howie Choo in FB.. |

QUOTE(howiechoo @ Apr 22 2020, 11:54 PM) you are lucky to get the korea headunit rather than the lcd china unit which sounds so-so... for your info, getting dsp is definitely a need if u really wanted a balanced and long lasting setup. heres a sample my client still going for dsp even he changed to pioneer with half dsp feature build in. he is a few time icer of course. maximus is replacement for maximo and they build it slightly better with more tamed tweeter and midbass have slightly more morel signature. but i would top up for tempo ultra anytime.
