Just order it directly from Aliexpress. Search for Joying 10.1 . Since it's a web reseller the price would probably be the same. Ninjababez perfect Ito for your vios.

Thanks bro, problema kasi "pasalubong" sya lol
Non car related nga originally gusto nya bigay, like gold necklace or something "sentimental" daw
Ill order nalang for myself, sana wag ako mahirapan sa pag pickup uli customs tulad dati.

Its door to door. Just track your package in DHL. When it clears customs call up dhl hotline and then ask how much duties are. When its delivered to your house you pay the delivery person the taxes. Very simple and straightforward. No hassle.

Custom duties and taxes ung binabayaran natin dito bro. Ung sa US taxes naman un sa side nila. Hindi lang talaga consistent ang postal office natin sa pag collect. One time nakita nila ung address ko sa office pangalan ng sikat na law firm akala nila lawyer ako hindi ako pinabayad. Eh pangalan lang un ng building. :D

At other times, tatanungin lang magkano bili ko eh hindi ko na matandaan kasi 2 months ago pa un so estimate na lang. DHL naman sometimes may addtl duties and taxes sometimes wala. Tried using MyShoppingBox.com once wala ng D&T so will try this option again. Usually 50% ung D&T.

Havent tried BB boxes pero I heard may mga horror stories din. It would take months din bago makarating ang shipment.

Installed my 2nd android headunit in my other LC200. I replaced the pioneer 8750bt. Am super duper happy. Everything i wanted in a headunit is there. Waze, spotify, overlaid Lyrics via Musixmatch.

This Joying unit rocks. The sound is just as sweet and punchy as from the pioneer unit.

Sir can you tell me how much is the Joying cost. Can you also tell me where did you have it installed?

Sorry, I can't see the model of the speaker so it's a hard call.

But unlike siento's observation. I believe that's a passive subwoofer with a fabricated box. Reason for this is the tell-tale speaker terminals from the box as opposed to RCA inputs.

As a general rule, check the cost of the subwoofer driver then just add Php1,000 to Php2,000 for a box. The box cost differs as it will depend on the MDF used by the installer, its cover (either carpet or leather/leatherette), as well as how much internal reinforcements the box has.

In general, the more expensive your subwoofer, the more you want to pay close attention to the box. You throw in internal bracing (some even go for aluminums), the shape of it to reduce standing waves, etc. As an extreme example, home audio JL Fantoms can cost up to Php150,000 a piece for a subwoofer that costs Php30,000.. a built-in amplifier/DSP that's probably around Php20,000 and the rest is box and branding.

Noticeable. Iba na agad yun driver configuration halata na agad

If you're already purchased separate components and are using it. Don't go the coaxial route. If you look at all the modern cars nowadays such as the Mercedes Burmester system to Mazda's BOSE system, all of those uses separate components na.

Your best choice is to first bring it to an installer and check your separates' crossover. It might have decibel attenuation that is decreasing the output of your speakers. In general, it's usually on a 3dB gap (ex. 0dB, -3dB, -6dB). Aside from this, look at your source (head unit)'s settings. There might be settings there that is also reducing the tweeter output.

By experience, most people who have tweeter output problems suffers from either or both of these problems. It's very rare for somebody to be unsatisfied with their tweeter output given factory or aftermarket products.

Also, adding another tweeter may not necessarily solve your problem. Depending on acoustics, it might in fact just aggravate it.

This is the subwoofer boss

It's like a modified active sub, wherein they integrated an amp on the enclosure along with the driver. I usually see those being sold in Concorde before. RCA lang kelangan, good to go na.

Tahimik ngayon dito ah, wala ako makuhang idea hehe 😏

Wow bro, from Pioneer 8750BT to Joying. That is saying something. No noticeable difference in sound quality, tama ba?

Yep. But im only using stock speakers.

For me the SQ and punch is good. Bass is good. I dont have any subwoofer or amps. The headunit is providing the amplification.

I could go crazy and blow some money on amps and speakers. But the sound is good enough for now. Lets see if the sound bug bites me in the future. Till then i am very satisfied.

Are underseat subs good enough? My sealed sub is so large that it takes up a seat at the third row. I'm looking at the NBN-V12 generics at around 3-4k or so

[jhnkvn]

To answer some concerns:

1. The Pioneer 8XXXBT only shines when you use its audiophile features such as crossovers, EQs, and most importantly time alignment. Other than that and it's numerous pre-outs, it functions much like a regular head unit.

2. While many installers claim that a certain head unit brand sounds better than the rival headunit brand; I'm on the camp that ignores them because those are minute differences. Sure, they sound different because their internal circuitry is different. But claiming that it's light and day is something I don't understand. As long as its output is rather flat, its flavor is flat.

3. Underseat subwoofers are good enough to regular people. But if you're the type of person to rock out Lil' Jon, I don't think it's enough.
