    This would be my first time to tinker with stock speakers ever since I laid my hands on an automobile. Please pardon me for my numerous questions.
    I'm planning to upgrade the rear speakers of my FD Civic. I want them to have a bass output similar to that of the stock speakers of the EK Civic. I wish to pattern my upgrade set-up after the Honda Bass Kit being sold in the US:



    Currently, I'm looking at the JBL Multi Element speakers and adding an amplifier. Would it deliver the bass output that I want? Is the bass output of a 2-Way speaker different from that of a 3-Way? a 4-Way? What brand/type of amplifier would be suitable for my upgrade? Thanks a lot.

    IMO Mas maganda bro palitan mo ng speaker na maganda ung boses wag ung ma bass! tas lagay ka nalang ng kahit 10" lang na subs kung ayaw mo mawalan ng trunk sapce!

    Actually, ang balak ko po "tanggal-kabit" lang. Tanggal stock speakers, kabit aftermarket, tapos dagdag ampli. Di po ako mahilig sa mga malalaking subs. Satisfied na po ako dun sa treble at midrange nung speakers. Sa ngayon po kasi, walang kabass-bass yung sounds ko kahit nakatodo na yung setting. Gusto ko sana magkaron lang ng konting kabog sa dibdib yung tunog.:D

    Honestly po, I have no idea kung magkano magagastos dito. I've never invested in speakers and amplis before, panay HU lang. Malaki po ba gastos nito? Kung masyadong mahal, ipagpapaliban ko na lang po muna.

    To give you an idea, entry level DLS mga 6K more or less. Entry Level MB Quart mga 9K more or less, Entry level Crystal CPE60 4K more or less. Mga mid level models siguro mga 12K up depending on the brand.

    Well i guess, audition is the answer.

    Sori po, medyo eng-eng talaga ako dito. Are those prices for the speakers or the ampli? Pasensiya na po.

    Matagal ko na rin pong naririning yang "audition" na yan. Please correct me if I'm wrong pero di ba that means trying out various speakers sa system mo tapos you select one that seems to be the greatest sounding for you? Kung ganun, papayag kaya yung store na magtry out ako ng iba't-ibang speakers?

    Kung yung distributor(store) e me sample speakers, then dun pa lang audition mo na. mas maganda attend ka ng EB espcially sa www.kotseaudioclub.com. libre audition dun. pwede mo rin audi yung kay ILD. yung sakin sana kaso old-skul gamit ko eh.

    Btw, re my query previously, is there a difference between the bass output of a 2-way, 3-way & 4-way speaker? TY.

    3-way component speakers have more clarity and detail than 2-way component speakers, also you have more flexibility in composing your front "staging" which is important for SQ enthusiasts, the downside is you have to fabricate panels to fit the 3 speakers.

    I havan't heard of a 4-way system.

    nag search ako sa crutchfield, pero yung bostcon acoustics lang ang available sa rear deck. alam mo naman ako, walang alam sa I.C.E. kaya sinusundan ko lang ang payo ng crutchfield.

    wag tingin sa crutcfield kapatid. medyo mahal dyan. basta tingnan mo lang yung mounting depth ng FD para pag tinigin mo ibang model e alam mong fit. btw, boston malalaki magnet kaya be sure to fit it correctly. funny me 5 1/4 boston pro ako na seps.
