April 11th, 2011 04:20 PM #11Thanks for for all the help.
Not noisy compared to other suvs. The only sound I hear is the diesel engine running when there's no music playing. Otherwise, ambient noise is minimal, if any.
I was never into cars before but my dad gave me 1.5M to buy a car so I used what was left over to buy 20" Lenso mags, tires (traded in my stock tires), LCD headrest monitors, an aftermarket grill, paint protection, etc.
Wish I could, dude. You can mock me all you want but I just don't have the money for it right now.
I feel for you. The HU GPS is great but that's about it.
You seem like one of the smarter ones here in Tsikot. Yup, I think I'll take your advice and stretch it to 20k. Might have to wait till the end of the month though.

April 11th, 2011 06:22 PM #12If you can stretch your budget to 20K contact Nogs of Candyshop. Tel# Tel#413-7902 Nogs(09228866449) His shop is located in Banawe and he does excellent work. His Firland and Powerbass packages are exactly 20K and are a good deal.
Another good shop in Banawe is Jetcar. Dont know their phone no.
In araneta Ave, a popular budget car audio shop is Araneta Car Accessoiries.
I have not tried tsikotshop, but from his posts, he seems to know his stuff.
If you are willing to invest the time and money into car audio. I will suggest Quest Audio in Scout Boromeo. He does competition level systems. He can do it one item at a time. So you dont get hit with a big cash outlay. So change speakers 1st, then add an amp and so on.
Just remember, in car audio, the install is as important as the equipment. A good installer can make enrty level equipment sound good. WHile a bad install can make competition level equipment sound like tin cans.

Take userfriendly's advice wisely due to the "diminishing returns" of sound audio, it was even said that car audio is "90% installation 10% speakers"
I think right now, the most famous installer in Banawe is Candyshop. Lagi may customer.. just passed by now, sa garahe nila merong bronze Civic. Anu kaya pinapagawa kay Nogs? Tapos na ata i10 ni Kyle. Bigat ng beyma tweets nun.
I'd also suggest C3 Car Audio. Not sure kung nagbago sila but they're the place-to-go yun mga 2005. The thing I like with Banawe is that, due to competition, haggling is quite easy.
Just came back from Perfect Circle Banawe (near E. Rod side). Sayang wala si Benedict so I can't directly haggle with him. Planning to buy a JBL MS-8 from them, from the looks of it, successful naman haggle ko.
Based on brands (pagbudget):
Jeff Tan's Araneta Car Accessories - Targa, Ryan Audio
Candyshop - Firland, Powerbass, Dominations (Recommended if you like warm sounds)
Tsikotshop is mainly A/D/S
On my preference, I like the Dominations at a budget and Powerbass for the amps. Don't forget installation and wirings.. those are often "hidden" costs for car audio newbies. Especially if you start playing with the big boys like JC Car Audio or Mickey's Auto Sounds.. hell, custom A-pillars would cost you around 13,000php na sa Mickeys eh (if memory serves me right)Last edited by jhnkvn; April 11th, 2011 at 07:30 PM.
