Today i bought a nakamichi 10inch 900w, rms 150w underseat active subwoofer.
Total cost rm850 including installation and tuning the subwoofer.

My setup.
Kenwood BT304 headunit
Front speakers Alpine SPJ-161C2 type J, coaxial 2 way speaker
Rear speakers Swissline 6x9 2 ways speaker
nakamichi NBF10.2A, 10" 900w, rms 150w underseat active subwoofer

Improvement.
Clearer vocals. Clearer voice clarity since now my front speakers not overworked. Bass become subwoofer job. The bass...omg got the clean tight punch DUB DUB DUB tight tight punch. Can feel the bass punch your buttocks if u sit at the passenger seat. Me likey. Not like cheapo subwoofer BOOM BOOM BOOM muddy punch..like the m*Q super cheap underseat subwoofer.

Overall..very syok. No more distortion unless i push the volume to almost max which is very very loud for me anyway. Totally worth the investment. Next upgrade is to install a full range 2" tweeters at the dashboard and my setup will be complete, for a budget setup at least.

Breakdown cost:
Headunit rm195 (lazada)
Alpine front speakers rm199 (lazada)
Swissline rear speakers rm220 (shop)
Installation and wiring 1 (headunit, front and rear speakers) rm250.
Nakamichi underseat active subwoofer rm850 (include installation and tuning)
Total so far RM1714

wrong subforum

oh wait

Mana ada wrong. Kopitiam is my place to log all my car's modifications.

Can ask how to get clearer radio channel ? Anything I can do to improve it? Honda FC

If your external antenna no issue and no wiring issue, and you are using an aftermarket headunit, then you can read on.

I tried going to a car audio shop and complain the same thing to them about my FM signal being weak.
One shop told me to install a FM booster, so I bought an FM booster.
It didn't improve...at least for me. RM60 including installation.
So sad with my wrong investment, I went to a few other shops and just talked to them while hunting for my subwoofer or amplifier (I haven't made up my mind which to buy that time).
Many say it depends.
Only one guy told me its useless. It really depends on your headunit integrated signals, meaning you need to change headunit. My problem also came when I install my aftermarket kenwood headunit.

Your neighbor no complaint?

you can install the antenna that stick on the rear/front windscreen.
last time my wira stick that and improve my radio receiption tremendously

nakamichi car speakers, kalau car always jemu kat panas, or no sun protection, will not last.
kalau nak good sound woofer, recommend box, not active sub type. oso, must hv good amplifier.

Same as my previous MTX mercury component speakers. X jemu panas pun, but before warranty finish both speakers problematic already. The glue peeled off.
Somemore mine is confirm original MTX.

My antenna already very panjang at outside of car wor...

I good boy. Also its not behind car big box subwoofer where whole car shaking (LOUD) and outside can hear clearly.
Mine is just tight bass and a bit loud. But outside not so kacau except if beside my car when my volume over 20. sorry la motorcyclist

I’ve upgraded mine too. Blam Signature component speakers, Venom amp and underseat woofer, door sound proofing, tuning.

headunit very important, must get those slightly expensive type. some branded/nonbranded cheapo version, will kira nasib.

kenwood should be ok..my headunit is Kenwood..support apple car play and android auto

How subwoofer make voice clearer? You still send same sound to front speaker. You change the Equalizer ?

Kenwood HU only RM195? Link pls

TS enjoy how many hours in car per day ?
