BigHorn / Trooper Setup

[ShowMeThePappi]

good day sirs!

i just recently acquired an isuzu bighorn / trooper and now shouldering the expenses for it (pamana kasi ni itay hehe)

i dont know what the exact model but it was bought from subic around 2002, and i think its the lotus edition.may lotus sticker kasi sa gilid and sa steering wheel eh.

napagawa ko na po ang clutch, aircon, alarm at HU (pioneer 3250UB).. magpapatulong lang po sana sa sound setup, gusto ko lang palitan yung mga stock speakers kasi tunog lata eh.. if im not mistaken meron 4 speakers dun (2 sa harap and 2 sa rear).. humihingi lang po ng payo at opinyon..

any insights are deeply appreciated. thanks!

Replace the stock speakers with higher wattage (bigger magnet) speakers BUT of the same diameter as the stock so as to keep the door trim unmodified. (also to keep a "sleeper" look)

In addition, you can put a basetube at the 3rd row area to provide bass. (see sample photo)


In effect, the 4 upgraded speakers would serve as mid-range speakers while your bass driver would be the pre-amp basstube at the rear. This (basstube) would not be eating up space at the rear (unlike boxed subwoofers)

thank you sir! now i have an idea or at least a "template" to work with.Ü naalala ko nagpayo din yung mekaniko na naginstall ng car alarm na dapat yung sa speakers makapal daw yung magnets eh..

just 1 question though, i think this is the first time i encountered a basetube.. where can i find one?

Virtually any car audio shop you can find. The brands of basstubes would vary depending if that shop you choose is carry them. The brand BAZOOKA i know is carried by Winterpine. They may also have V12 (cheap but powerful basstube)

I bought mine around 5 years ago from the distributor of Infiniti here in the Philippines. Got it then for 15k. i have no contact of the company anymore. They changed address/contact #.

For the front door medyo mababaw yung lalagyan ng speakers kaya tatama yung magnet sa likod (for certain speaker brands).

Gusto ko sana Targa lang para mura pero di kumasya. Ang kumasya sakin Kicker kasi maliit magnet.

lagyan mo ng spacers. medyo mababaw talaga ang front speakers kaya kung lalagyan mo ng aftermarket na medyo malaki magnet e di kakasya. kung pupunta kayo sa Ivea EB ni nap123, try nyo tingnan yung ginawa ko sakin. wala na kasi yung pics dito sa gallery eh

thank u mam/sir, will keep that in mind.. (note to self: targa's magnets might not fit front panels)

me Kamahalan pala sir benzimer...


TS, if limited budget mo. Buy ka na lang sa Raon, 10K can go very far there. Yung subs na project ko would cost around 5-6K if I where to buy there incl. amplifier. Already spent 4K for my front and rear speakers (Pioneer) which we bought at Raon.

bro simple lang punta ka sa forum dito sa sound system eto ang link you can learn a lot http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11301

at saka pumunta ka sa EB this coming september 11 sa the fort to see yung setup ko sa trooper.

[ShowMeThePappi]

thanks sir nap123 & niwde11! welcome ba lahat sa EB? medyo nahihiya yata ako kasi stock almost lahat sa bighorn ko e. hehe.

stock lang din sakin. yung kay nap123 lang ang "overstock".

[wham_10mbps]

i second to that sir niwde11, overstock. haha. i just told nap123 to enlist his trooper in one of the local autoshows? hehe. OT na sorry..

ShowMeThePappi - ask your mechanic to do some safety checks on your steering system. check your power steering pump if they are original and intact and no welds. And most importantly, check your pitman arm for any cut-and-welds.

As for the front speakers, don't go for the three ways speakers if you want to preserve the stock look kasi di mo na maisasara using the stock speaker covers. It would give you more kalansing sounds in addition to your tweeters on your A-pillar.. if you are specific to that but your speakers would be exposed.

just my two pennies worth.

[Benzmizer]

Frankly, I did not change any of my 6 stock speakers (2 tweeters included). I just installed the basstube at the 3rd row area and the sound was great! The stock 6 speakers served as good "separates".

Total cost of sound upgrade: P15k (cost of basstube)

Yung setup ko mura lang naman ORIGINAL V12 AMPLIFIER 2000W 4CH from the supplier ng Sony -3K lang
front speaker -Macrom 160 watts lang kaya kailangan palitan stocks twitter need to be upgrade to new http://www.sony-asia.com/product/xs-gtr1720s
5K lang price as per may contact sa supplier. Technology kasi bilis kaya nagmumura na ang price.

rear speaker - sony speakers na forgot the wattage mura din eto.
subwoofer - 10inch lang na sony xplod 1200 watt -4K kasama na ang box
Headunit - sony dv2200 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...EX-DV2200.aspx 190usd ko lang nakuha yan pero dito 22K plus sa ACE na hehehe.

Hindi naman kailangan mahal yung setup mo mas importante tama ang timpla hehehe.
