madali lng yan, basta ipon ka muna, budget system mga under 20k meron. pwede na total hindi naman professional habol mo

[ssaloon]

pero sa 20k, baka wala pang headunit.

[BlueBimmer]

im not updated sa price, but a low end pioneer hu, 1 fake v12, 2 10" targa subs + materials n labor abot cguro. pag may addl amp, seps n mids d na cguro aabot.

[luckytruck]

for a newbie, i think 20 thou with head unit is doable, especially if you take the time to scour the classifieds in kotseaudio.com.

you can get a good branded second hand 4 channel amp for about 6 thousand. brand new separates of reputable brand will cost you abot P4000. a targa sub will cost maybe P2500. you can probably get a decent headunit for 6,500. that leaves you 1000 for the installation and sub box. medyo kulang, but then again, you might be able to save some money on some components. i think 20 thou with head unit can be done and even 15 thou without head unit is achievable.

on my galant, i plan to use my 4 channel amp (resale value P6000), a pair of 8 inch targas in the rear deck (2k each?) and a set of 3 way targas (P3000 ata) total is only 13 thou. not boom boom, but good enough for me. dumaan na kasi ako ng boom boom

Mmm... pang competion? Madugo yan. You better make up your mind.... whether you want boom-boom or clarity but there are components out there made for both.

[BlueBimmer]

basically kung talagang boomboom the budget of 20k could easily double and triple and quadruple

[ssaloon]

nako, mukhang madugong trabaho din yung pagturo dito

[stinkaboy]

ssaloon, hahahaha!

notice mo ren bro? :D

[luckytruck]

your best bet is to attend a competition and study their system diagrams.

guys, do they still display their diagrams beside their cars.

i have been into car audio since 1992 and yet i am no expert. it is a long and exciting process but you have to understand the basics first.

andy

[ssaloon]

di na bro, they just display a full spec sheet of parts beside the entries.

[tagalog grl]

wwaaahhhh~
mukha nga po mahihirapan ako sa gusto ko.. and pati na rin sa money...
noon 2002 and 2003 po kasi nakapanood na po ako..asin un heart ko po tumalon..
but di ko po akalain na mahirap pala ginagawa nila.. i mean kala ko po kasi that time, bibili ka lng ng "SET" tapos kabit mo lang..
and tapos sin ka lakasan lang ng sounds..

eee,, pero po parang wala ako nakita na grl na sumasali.. (sa place namin po..)
kaya gusto ko po talaga sana matuto..


*sya nga pala po. may nakita po ako pic. na un sounds system nya naka kabit sa trunk..
i mean po un hindi sya naka lagay sa BOX.. un parang naka dikit po sya sa likod ng backseats..
mas ok po ba un?? and ano nga pala po tawag sa ganun style?? mas mahal po ba un kesa sa BOX's type?..
(nagandahan po kasi ako eh.. ang linis tignan.. tska mukha pa sya magaan tignan.. hehehe.. )

and baka po OT;
*bago pa lang po ba un Pioneer 7750? un ganun po ba un tinatawag ng HU..?? anyway po meron pa ba po mas maganda pa dito..??*

[ssaloon]

pioneer 7750mp:

is it just me, or is pioneer doing an alpine in terms of design?

dont know how much the going rate is right now, pero mas type ko pa rin yung 8650mp. colored OEL pa and 6.5v preout (4v preout lang ang 7750). boing rate for the 8650 is around 24k in banawe.

yung nakita mong nakakabit sa backboard, mga free-air subs yan. mas tipid siya in the sense that you dont have to fabricate a box to enclose your subs. the whole trunk will be your box. pero personally, i like enclosed subs better since you can feel the bass much better and much softer din ang bayo niya.

[luckytruck]

i will be doing freeair on my backboard because i don't wan't to waste a single cubic inch of space using a box and i really don't want to go through the hassle of having a detachable box.

a few das ago kasi, bimili ako ng bathroom set, as in toilet bowl with the tank, sink and pedestal, and i fit them al in the back of my galant. i was sooooo happy, which is why i don't want to use up any trunk space. kapoy kasi maghiram ng suv or pickup sa parents ko.

back to the main topic...... there is no such thing as a plug and play car audio setup na competition quality. some experts beleive that your equipment is only about 30% of the equation, installation and tuning is the major factor to determine either SPL or SQ.
