[james0207]

sir v6dreamer... im planing to change all the stock speaker of my toyota gli into 4way speaker "pioneer".... is dat good or bad? im open to any advice..
m also planning to buy some subs...

[Randell]

james0207. those are amplified subs in tubes na nabibili sa concorde. tried one before ok naman but not as good as standard. dapat may sub pre out hu mo. a cheap setup and nice sound, lakas din bumayo. just make sure you put the correct size of wires.

[james0207]

sir randell: my HU is sony cdx-gt250s 52wX4...
well gs2 ko tlga setup na bumabayo hehe nd as much as posible not so xpensive na setup n un quality oks...

Your subs system is grabbing all the power almost to a point, you could be asking for trouble.

OPTION ONE..
You will need a Farad Capacitor to ensure that your system gets steady supply of power for maximum performance, and act as stabilizer between the amps and your car's electrical system. 2.0 Farrad Capacitor is ideal but, 5, 10, 20 or 40 farrad capacitor are much, much better.

OPTION TWO.
Have your alternator rebuilt for higher output or you can invest in a high-output aftermarket alternator.

Secondary battery wont help. The only reason to do is to play your stereo for long periods with the engine off.

I'm already feeling that trouble I presume. Busina ko pasumpong-sumpong na, minsan nagana, minsan hindi. If I'd have my alternator rebuilt due to the lack of an aftermarket one, san ko kaya pwede pagawa? Don't know of any shops kasi that offers such.

And re: secondary battery. Di ba di naman sya gagana when the engine is off? So how can it prolong playing the stereo while it is off? Or was I misinformed by our company electrician?

another question pla sirs... ok ba kng plgayan ko ng 4way speaker un front and un rear? preparation sana sa boom boom sa future.... :D

Who connects your stereo system?

Your system must connect on the ACC in your early ignition switch on the ACCessory terminal. If your stereo is not working on the ACC switch position when your engine is off then have an car electrical tech. to correct the problem.

Acc is an early ignition that has a ACCessory terminal. The early switch wires were only IGNITION, BATTERY, START. One big reasons to have an ACC terminal was that you put your STEREO on that terminal so that when it was ON it get full battery voltage. The ACC terminal was hot in the IGNITION position as it was switched off in the start position, giving the ACC 12 Volts or 14 Volts.

What is your estimated electrical current that your system draw?
Go back in my previous post how to estimate your current draw and estimate your system current demands.

*JAMES0207:
4 way in the front or rear
2 way in the front or rear....Vice versa, which one is preferable for you.
4 way front and rear is too much high frequency youll going lost a lot of vocal.

Mga PROs ano kaya magandang Capacitor and ilang Farrad and magkano kaya aabutin?

I'm Planning to get one kasi.. Automatic kasi car ko and 1SM lang battery ko... I dont wanna take chance na magsounds without my engines running.. baka dina tumakbo.. heheh

Master Guru.. ano po say nyo kaya dito... you know my set narin eh...

Setup:
- 2 pcs s12L7 Solobaric Kickers
- KX1200.1 Kicker
- KX850.4 Kicker
- 2 sets ES6.2 Seps front and rear
- Custom ported box 5.0 cubic ft volume, open air ung dalawa sa isang box...
- 4 pcs lighting stuff sa Box

Future additional set:
- 1 Custom 12volts build Computer unit with converted 12volts 14" LCD VGA/RCA monitor << custom built Made by myself
- 1 Playstaion2 slim type
- 2 LCD Headrest monitors
- 1 Set 6x9 Kickers

The computer will be attached to the HU using RCA cables to its AUX port. And gain 12volts power from the Battery or better, by capacitor? With Custom made Automatic Voltage Regulator...

The funny thing is I know about Computer Electonics but I Car Audio, I'm dead B OW B OW...

Share ko lang:
ito idol ko.. kapit bahay ko.. won the first price in Best QS system.. SM Pampanga Car Show last May!!!

She's Powered by DUBaudio and di ko lam Ampli.. heheh!!!



anong AMP yan?

Ito pa isa...


at ito pa.. gawa ni Quizon.. Ang galing and ang linis..

[userfriendly]

Jojan,

A capacitor will not help you if your goal is to play with your engine off. For this you need a 2nd battery. A cap is basically like the water tank on your toilet, its there to provide quick bursts of power while your alternator is charging. For cap size, you need 1 farrad capacitance per 1000 watts of amp power. Sorry can't help wuth brand and price, canvass ka na lang.

Ganda ng system ng friend mo.

BTW, saan yung shop ni Quizon and ano contact no?
