i'm planning to play passive with one 4-channel amp.

 

got new doubt here, i have some ppl say that sound produce by certain amp to certain comp set will hear too bright or mellow , what do they mean? bright sound mean sharp sound and mellow mean ??? if so i'm going into SQ, which sound is good?

Everyone has their own taste and preference. Even for SQ, some would like the sound to be brighter, whilst others may prefer a more mellow or warmer sound.

SQ essentially would mean that the sounds being reproduced by the system is accurate and as close to that as has been recorded at the recording studio in terms of tonality, clarity, timbre, etc.

Other than the accuracy in the reproduction of the sound in the car, the subtlety in terms of the brightness or warmness of the sound etc. would be up to personal preference.

KelvinW, I think playing passive or active is just fine, as long as you know what you eventually want and not what others are pursuing. Of course, you can always make reference and come to a decision yourself.

 

There will bound to be some components matching here and there to achieve synergy and harmony within any ICE system. If you have decided to go into SQ, you are always welcome to join us at the Nasi Padang meetups to listen for yourself and decide which path to take. We are more than glad to show you the path to more poison. wink.gif

Actually, one of the member known as Kermit is using a Blaupunkt that hooks up his steering control and display. He can offer more advice...he has gone thru the painful stage to arrive at what he is today.

The easy solution is a hi-lo converter - i.e. a device that converts the spkr level outs from the HU to a line-level which can be fed into an amp. Not an ideal solution (as there would be a loss in signal quality) - but a solution which enables the stock HU to be utilized thus not compromising on the ability to retain control via the integrated buttons on the steering wheel.

What Kermit was able to do was to locate a HU which could be integrated or controlled via the integrated buttons on his steering wheel - may or may not be compatible with your ride though.

guess our lao jiaos here had finally advised, hope u got ur ans.

 

come to meetup and kenna poison depends how strict u stick to ur budget. By listening to various setup, you can roughly determine what kind of setup will suitable for u better... Also u can use those setup as a reference so that you can use to judge your own system when its done.

 

Best to talk face to face with some gurus there.... when u hv questions. writing is not always clear.

kwongwing, thanks to ur information.

for the hi-lo converter, i think it also got some brand and grade outside market, i saw a only S$17 simple converter with 2 channel RCA output at Leader Auto, and one member here saying that he got the other Adjustable Converted and S$50.

I surf for Alpine wed, they also carry a converter, don know how much is that ;
