What about Adams Digital system? which category does it goes?

Not too sure about how CAP ayam it is but I do have some Adams Digital stuff in my car.

I do think there are pretty good for SQ.

Adams Digital ESS10 Super Active Subwoofer Amplifier
Adams Digital RMT75.4 Tube Four Channel Amplifier
Adams Digital RUC165 2-way Component Speaker

To me, worth the price paid.

Adams Digital is certainly famous for its SPL performance but in SQ, I dun see a lot though....

Hi sifus.

Just surveyed Focal/MTX/Eton component set for front setup (used MTC CTC-160 before).

Suddenly, yesterday a shop introduce me HELIX (not sure what model) price at something RM1.3K. At least he's talking some common sense and not bragging by saying some facts about MTX with the "American punch" sound and comparing with Helix; natural Germany's sound.

Need some advice.

If I go for MTX/Focal/Eton, I will spend <RM1K. But if Helix, will be >RM1K.

Apa kata sifu ICE? My HU is stock. Later (dont know when) will upgrade

Does Helix requires an amplifier to drive to perform well?
If it does and you have an amplifier, try to hear Adams Digital RUC-165.
You can try audition this component speaker if your budget stretch to around 1.4k

IMO, there are few ways to determine how good certain brands are.

A good installer to install and tune all the related audio equipments to come with a system in a certain price range. If you have listened to badly configured system and then label certain brands as cap ayam (as u always do), that's would be overly too subjective IMO. And to label how lousy a brand instead of their model line up, its more like a fanboy reaction. Again, its very hard to change someone perception towards certain brands when their mind told them how good/bad certain brands are, but isn't that they should discuss on certain model line up instead?

I dun think a RM1.5k component of Mohawk can be worse than Focal Access 165?

I have read that many people in this particular forum mentioned about how cap ayam is Mohawk but garykam did mentioned to me how good he thinks a setup was, when he auditioned before.


IMO, all audio systems are good as long as they being selected and tune properly to the users' need. If there is a brand who can offer better/similar audio quality at far lesser price compared to a well known brand, that's what I called worth.
