audio set-up for beginners [continued]

Question guys. Sinu-sino po naka-underseat or bazooka type na active subwoofer dito? I was planning to buy one, pero i need your input kung alin sa dalawa ang maganda. Gusto ko lang naman po na may konting BASS yung mga songs ko from 2650ui. TY sa mga sasagot po.

Requirements ko po eh, may remote to control yung bass response niya mapa, unerseat or sa trunk.

A bazooka type will almost always be better.

Question about rear speakers. Kailangan ba yung may tweeter din, or speaker only? Lahat kasi na nakikita kung coaxial speakers may tweeter na kasama.

For rear speakers, I prefer a midbass only approach then a fade to the front speakers. Using a tweeter to your back will steer your image from the front to the back.

What if separates din ung gusto ko ilagay sa likod? Ano mga need ko baguhin or do i need an amplifier na?

Not advicable. First is the problem on where to mount the tweeter. Unless meron ka yun between-the-doors tweeter mounting ng mga more expensive cars (such as a Range Rover), where do you plan on mounting the separate tweet?

Second is that as long as there's a tweeter, agad nahahatak na yun imaging mo palikod. Normal folks won't probably care but the more enthusiast amongst the car audio crowd will frown upon a tweeter inclusion. Bass sounds are harder to locate kasi.. a very good example is that most computer 5.1 systems has the 6" subwoofer on your feet. But you don't hear it coming from there do you? Pero kung binababa mo yun front speakers mo (with usually either has a 2" full-range driver or a 1" tweeter), agad nahahatak yun sounds pababa.

Thanks bro. I have a six speaker factory setup with seps at the front. I'll just replace my stock speakers at the back with coaxial speakers for my rear passengers. Medyo bitin kasi ung sounds sa likod.

Thanks. Tama lang yung decision ko to just buy the separates. Retain ko na lang OEM speaker sa rear.

i have a kenwood 6033 head unit & focal ps165v seps. choosing between a) the ibus 2.1 active sub & using its built-in 2ch amp to power the seps or b) either the gladen m-line 75.4 or focal fd 4 350 or fpp 4100 & replacing the rear oem speakers w/ focal pc165. which is the lesser of two evils?

Depends on what you want.

The cheaper option will be to get the Gladen 75.4 and getting a subwoofer + box.

if a sub+box were out of the question due to space constraints, would coaxials on the rear doors "help" an underseat sub do its job of delivering the lows? tia
