Basic setup on ICE

[Kurty]

hi,

 

ever since i changed my new tyres, driving on the road was much quieter than before.

 

another poison leads to another.

 

now eyeing on having an active subwoofer beneath the seat.

however no idea how to go about.

 

any advise or recommendation of audio workshop that could do this cheaply?

 

just a normal woofer/set up will do, after all, it just for entertainment to ears

Bro, you can try Chuan Sing at Sin Ming...I did my setup there...very good workmanship...look for this guy call Ah Yong to install for you.

 

For under seat woofer, you can try steelmate active sub..My wife is using it in her ride..decent bass for a 8" active sub

Bro,

 

i driving a proton savvy, small ride.

further to that, i like my ride to be empty as possible as i go for low end pick up.

thus weight and room space matters, an active sub only weight around 3-4kg and can be placed under the seat.

so far, i saw the best deal was still at brothers. going for rm 199 exclude installation, 300watts.

In my opinion, upgrade of speakers would be a better investment than adding a sub-woofer. The speakers would make a world of difference even if you get an entry level set for just your front.

It depends. Sub will give you the bass needed and the good speakers do bring out the clarity/music/instrumental/vocal out.

any guide for buying a good speaker?

 

example: like watts or the magnet weight

establish your budget range, go to a few audio shop and check out the sound from each type of speaker, lock in on your actual budget and check out which audio shop is to your liking and go and do your installation..

 

everyone have their own preference to sound.. so there's no one size fit all. getting a good ICE is an Art, not Science which can be quantify.

 

and decide what you want 1st.. a sub or a pair of component can varies a lot.. and give different aspect of sound..

i upgraded my speakers 1st last time.. and the story goes on and on and on... hehe

[Kurty]

anyway, just an update on my set up.

 

went to jkaudio for installation, really very good and detailed.

 

stupid me go buy a pre amp, thought it is enough to power my speaker.

after learning from jason, only then i know it is used in conjunction with amp...

but i did my installation of component speaker and tweeter.

 

sound is much better than stock.

 

may i don't required an amp after all, nevertheless, the thoughts of upgrade my 2 din hu keep lingering..

 

i guess i got badly poisoned.

haha 1 will lead to another.. enjoy..
