well... i do agree with R.Hood... but problem arise when sellers tries very hard to "snatch" business...

other situation... i dun see there is any problem with knowledge sharing...

one more thing is... there is a lot of ICErs out there... but there is 2 type of ICErs... one group brand oriented(branding, budget, fame oriented)... the other group are knowledge oriented(tunings, installs, technicalities oriented)...

to spot them... easy...
first one talks about how good a brand is...
another talks about what proper setup is...

Oh, I see i see.. Thanks =)

I've seen quite a number of people suggesting to others that the rear speakers are not necessary to be changed.
For a minimal setup, just add on a comp set will do. How true is that?

For instance, if I just get myself a RM400~500 Pegasus or Soundstream kinda compset only as compared to RM500~600 for a lower range compset + rear speakers, which will be better?

I am a hobbyist who seeks high-quality audio, but restrained by budget. As I am a student, I couldn't afford to spend so much for ICE of my car. 
Will changing the rear speakers to a normal RM200~300pioneer or sony 6X9" make a lot of difference?

Please advise sifus!

very true... but it doesnt stop there... there is a lot of things after that as well...

good luck...

1. yea we are neutral... and yes we dun simply suggest a shop... the shops we suggested are reputable for their workmanship... but thing is.. you have an issue with them... thus seeing us as not neutral...

2. we share good infos around... what do we get? we get labeled picking bones out of your saggy eggs? so how is it possible to share if the situation is that way all the time? still remember the scoping? we share knowledge from the test bench like what they do in DIYMA(your favourite ICE forum)... we get labeled trying to be misleading...

3. workers? how many actually works in the ICE industry here?

4. cheap = fake... thats normal case of first impression... but if we know the source in the first place that mistake could be avoided...

5. owh... kesian... but if we state our opinion, we get the bashing from you as well... its karma...

6. how many actually works in the acc shops let alone getting paid for the recommendations... but wait... you get "priviledges" for selling visaton... talk about money... you have an issue over the recommendations cuz you dun get your cut... i seriously doubt your knowledge if thats the case...

I am using JVC player with Nakamichi original 6X9 inch speakers. The sound is superb and clear.


Added on April 21, 2010, 5:15 pmJVC player does produce quite a good sound in base and clarity. My friend and I have compare it with pioneer, Sony and Kenwood. JVC still beat them.


Added on April 21, 2010, 5:16 pmAny feedbacks on this?

if you are getting 9887... why get the imprint processor again?

thought the 9887 is capable of doing imprint on its own already?

any speakers without power amp are normally not working at their optimum point... hence it doesnt sound as good as you would expect it to be, or could be better than without a power amp...

the fried part... probably because bass is all they want to achieve... which comes along with it is a lot of distorted signals...

and yes, most of the time... that situation causes fried amps or melted voice coils... smile.gif
