Nice. What amp are you gonna use to power it?

[ching]

yan pa nga problema ko eh. pwede ba 2ch amp? ano ba dapat specs ng amp? limited budget kse eh. salamat!

[pepengtom]

mag dvc targa ka na lang. tas hanap ka na 2ohm stable amp.
maski ung mga v12 ayus na sa targa un.
or try mo din ung fenton f4300. wag ung f41000 ah...
or hanap ka na lang ng mga bnew-oldstock na amp.
wag ka na lang muna bibili ng sub kung hindi mo pa alam ang ampli mo.
pero bahala ka, kung gusto mo muna paglaruan ung mga gagamitin mo, bahala ka...
pero mas maganda talaga kung iffinalize mo na ung mga gamit mo, para walang hassle sa gastos at labor sa installation.

Ah budget setup - go for the V12 MRV 1507 or the V12 MRV 705 or Fenton 4300 (not in the market). Choice amp for budget setups, medyo conservative dapat yung gains para di mag overheat yung amp. For the subs... pwede ka pumunta sa DaiIchi sa gamol and mag demo ka dun tapos bili ka sa Raon, Ultimately its your ears thats gonna decide.

BTW, 4-channel mga amp na yan. Pwede din 2-channel, pero baka mabitin.
HTH

ok! salamat pepengtom and ILuvDetailing! i think ill go for fenton 4300 as advice by both of you. tapos bibili pa ko ng seps yung x652C. one time installatoin ok na. cguro by end of march.

[notEworthy27]

how much na ba ang fenton?

[ILuvDetailing]

how much na ba ang fenton?

Only the 41000s are available in the market. Sa raon mga 6900+/-, sa DaiIchi Megamall mga 9500+/-

[notEworthy27]

pa audition naman ng fenton amps! looks like a good buy.

[ILuvDetailing]

If you can't find Fenton Amps, go for V12s, cheaper and quality is ok.

[notEworthy27]

kaya ba ng fenton ipower isa or dalawang S8L7? diba iinit?

[ILuvDetailing]

Ilang RMS niyan?

ey guys,

just had my ride setup by Mickey's. It sounds and looks Awesome!


I have a stock head unit Pioneer deh 7550

Rainbow slc 265s front and rainbow 0165 back. Jl audio 12w6 v2 subs. 2 jbl amps power these babies. (cs50 and 200.1). Also a cd changer and a rb20 for my ipod.
Nice neons on the Plexiglassed amps. looks way cool just like in Discovery's RIDES hehe.

Awesome stuff but I was also waaay over my budget but I guess it's worth it if I'm going to use it for years right? I'm guessing these stuff are pretty much on the higher-end? I have ZERO knowledge in car audio and put my complete trust in Mickey himself to choose the components. I was crossing my fingers that he'll give me good prices. I believed so cause so many of you guys recommend him in this forums.

I'm real happy with the workmanship and sound!!! woohoo!

bad driver: Congrats! How much for the JL Subs? and JL Amps? Am looking to upgrade my Subs...

Pics naman diyan

i just had an audio upgrade sa car accessories (jeff tan).
seps sya at basic lang.

a pair of aura 3 way speaker sa likod at a pair of aura speakers and tweeter sa harap. PInalitan ko rin ang HU ko ng pioneer 2750MP

I wanted to intall na the sub and amp kaso have not decided yet kung gaano kalaking space i wanted to lose sa likod to accommodate the sub.

[ILuvDetailing]

qman: Go for the sealed box so that it won't eat up too much space.

[qman]

likod ko kasi ay side facing third row seats eh I just want a descent sub na presentable na like iyong xplod pero maliit lang ang space na kakainin dahil malamang pagka loaded ng passenger iyon eh tapak tapakan lang sya hehehe

[bad driver]

hey ILD!

the subs are quoted as 23 k. with the nice enclosure. there's some aluminim in the box for accent

display unit kasi un sa office nya.

[odell]

nice setup you have there :D
