I think Auditor Audio sir should fit your budget, it is also developed by Focal. It has very similar qualities where it does have that lively sound signature Focal has.

Buy anything within your budget. Most of them roughly sounds the same lang naman. Sound differentiation starts quite late once materials start dictating the sound signature.

My vote? You go for local - Targa, Ryan Audio, Firland Audio. Or you can go international - JBL, Pioneer, etc.

I forgot, there is a cheaper sep that sounds lively too, the Audio System MX165. I think this only cost around 3.5k. Auditioned one from my installer mounted on sail pods in a mirage then they added deadening. It has good potential. The amp that was powering it was a JBL A604.

thanks sa reply mga sir,

another question po (pasensya sa kulit)

saan po pwede i-tap yung remote-turn-on wire ng amplifier (blue color) kung walang remote wire po yung head unit?

Sa accessory wire po found in the ignition switch. Usually color yellow po yun wire na iyan. I suggest letting a knowledgeable car electrician car audio shop do it for you. Pwede din mag lagay nang toggle switch in between the positive wire where the radio gets its power. Problem lang dito medyo hassle kase you now have two switches in order to turn on your radio.
Anyway, i'm sure kayang kayang na nang mga car audio shops gawan nang paraan iyan.

Question po mga experts. I wanted to upgrade my stock speakers and have 2 options considering that I do not intend to install amplifier (head-unit lang po direkta ang kabit ng speakers. Which would be a better option: 1- JBL seps in front, JBL coax rear and an underseat active subwoofer OR 2- Morel Maximo seps in front and Morel Maximo coax for the rear. Both options are somehow on the same price range kasi. I like a clean install kasi kaya a protruding subwoofer is out of the option. I just like to achieve a cleaner sound with nice lows vs the stock speakers. By the way, I am already using an aftermarket HU (Kenwood 2-din)

#1. The addition of an underseat active subwoofer is a "leap" in tonality.
