Do you have an amp?

It's power hungry. You will need at least a REAL amp with 2x150W RMS.

Am currently using MK240, which is the older version. It doesn't perform to its optimum with my current amp. Still sound okay, just not enough.

Yeah, I am currently hooking up the Dyns with JL 300/2 and AudioSystem 2.150, running on active, with Alpine 9855, and it still doesnt sound right.

The audioshop i went to suggest me changing to the previous model of Tru Technology, T3250, which has power of 250 per channel. So i am wondering should i change or not.

Just a 2 cent thought, be prepared to spend ALOT on amp, to make the Dyns sound like a Dyn.

Nice, but I doubt there is any problem with your power right now.

Maybe your install and tuning. I used tonnes of time and advice from friends to figure out the x-over points. And I'm still trying to get the best out of it.

What is your dissatisfaction rite now?

i feel that its not performing at where it should

i guess, its because my power cables not adequate.

I am still at 8gauge, on the other hand, my system adds up to be 1100 watt rms already.

yeah sorry its Tru T03-2250 hehe..03 series, i think its discontinued already.

but i guess, 150watt rms per channel should be sufficient right? (for the mid drivers only)

If you're running your Dyns in active mode or any other type of 'huge' 2-way frontal speakers, you do not need to install amps higher than 'true' 50W to 65W rms per channel. My 2 cents opinion here.

serious? 65W rms is enough already?! hmm. i am giving it 150RMS per channel to the mid, and 100RMS per channel to the tweets!

Btw, what car model is this ICE installed to?

Its a Mazda 3~


Yeah i think i gona change straight to 0 Gauge welding cable, any one have any advise on that?
i IMHO think that welding cable is cheap, and serve the same purpose

i have one installer in mind who do a very good job, i gues just have to let him have a couple of other job done, like tuning, and pillar (change) done.

Hm, I think in the previous post, we already solved his problem with the Power Cables problem?

And, he did state that, he is not happy with the amps he is currently using. How can you justify, he won't be happy with the Trus just by your own personal judgement?

I guess, bafukie and me is trying to help the person, but well, someone else here is just trying to do not only to help, but to do otherwise to those who's trying to help.

yup yup...hehehe guys relaxs, i found a installer whos willing to do the job for me, as for my tru tech that was offered by the previous installer,

its a TruTech T03.2.250, i heard from other audio gurus, they say the amp is not worth the price tag of 1800sgd.

moreover, they are oso runnin dynaudio, and feeding the mids with 50w of power, and it sounds good. so i guess, installation plays a part.


this installer i am going quite good, no pushing of goods. will be putting my car for him to review, and after that, i will listen and see how good it is! lol

finally, i am going to listen to true dynaudio!

will keep u guys updated with the result ok?

Hi Guys.

I fixed my car already.

The few items I've done:
Redo APillar
Door Panel (with the drivers facing out rather than hiding behind the door)
Changed my power cable, to monster 0 gauge
Added a H701 processor
Redo my sound proofing
Tuning


The result, its a drastic change, now the music seems fuller, clearer, and the problem I have faced is solved. I think its because of the improper installation from the previous installer, and the power cables (didnt put too much focus on the cables initially).

So, everything is good now ;]
the staging and imaging is still not that perfect yet, coz i think my installer rush thru many sleepless nites to get it done (i no car use haha..) so, need to listen to the system first, for a few weeks, before i can whine to him, to arrange it to my liking.

I conclude with this, a good system, equipments, requires good installation, and the person's effort to make them perform the equipment's potential!

thanks everyone for the many advises!
