audio set-up for beginners [continued]

You can search youtube vids for it. However, I still recommend having a knowledgeable friend walk you through the procedures. Nothing beats first-hand teaching IMO.

Never heard of the brands. I'll stick with Targas.

Your HU shouldn't have any problem running your Targa. A general rule of mine is that the real "need" for amplifiers starts at speakers costing 4000php and more. The 150W must be its peak wattage. Just look for its nominal RMS wattage. Impossible 150W nominal yan.. ede parang UP6 yun power nyan.. haha..

Save your cash and don't put speakers at the back. If you insist, move your old stocks there. I cannot stress the waste of money on spending cash on rear speakers if you spend 99% of your time at the front. It's like buying decent computer speakers and positioning them at the back rather than the front. It's an unneeded expense.

Since on a budget ka, I can probably guess na Targa din sub mo then V12 yun amp Classic budget car setup.

salamat sa reply sir. ngayon ko lang nabasa eh. nakabili na ko ng targa x652c (150W peak siguro to). at ok naman tunog nya sa HU ko. Nakabili na rin ako ng 4CH amp ( V23 MRV-F805) kaya lang di ko pa nakakabit yung amp. (hanap pa installer eh). tapos meron ako dalawang 8-incher na subwoofers rated 300W/4-8 ohms enclosed in a ported box (bigay lang ng bayaw ko). Hindi kaya mahirapan yung amp dun sa seps ko at dalawang subwoofers ko? balak ko ch 1/2 sa front seps ko, tapos yung ch3 dun sa sub 1 and ch4 sa sub 2. okay po ba yun? or may mas maganda pang alternative. Naisip ko kasi pag ganito ginawa ko eh pag nag fade ako sa harap para sa front staging eh hihina naman yung base ko from the subwoofers, tama ba? ayoko naman magdagdag pa ng isa pang amp. Sana matulungan nyo po ako. TIA.

if you have 8" subwoofer, 300watts rms, 4ohm, its better to used yung isa lang, place it in a good tuned box, what you want to hear or what kind of music you mostly listen to, and you got it great, if you want to hear it perfect, just started on the right, install the separates in the front using mdf board and some deadining to hardened the mounting and separate the front wave to the back wave perfectly, and so, the mid bases are present, mount the tweeter 2feet away so the midrange is hear in between of these seps., for the coax, leave it to your head unit,
YOUR HEAD UNIT- assumed your head unit output is 2rca preeouts * 2volts(mostly front and rear or front and sub), used it both to drive your amp, then used your front output to your 1&2 channel of the amps to your seps and rear/sub to 3&4 of your amp to your sub, if your head unit is pioneer that has these type, you can select rear output as a subwoofer output, so you dont have any problem, even if you fade it to front, you dont lost the subs.
I have many install such that and work perfect until today, they upgraded it, that is usually, but you dont need to replace each set, that kind of set up is upgradable in the future if you like it,
Now, your looking for the one who install it for you, we are here to help you finding the right one and well trained in these line, just ask tsikotshop..

pa tulong naman mga sir. matagal ko na tong balak kaso walang idea. gusto ko i-DIY.

im planning to add another amp para 1 for sub and 1 for speakers(4).

current setup is 4ch amp powering 1set seps + sub.

ayoko na kasi magpa gawa sa shop para naman ma experience ko din DIY

just buy another 1mono amp for your sub, leave the 4 channel to your speakers..

sir's,

madali po bng mginit ung mga V12 amp??? im using a F705 first time ko
n-experience n ng-auto shut ung amp after 45mins of playing.

pki share naman po mga experience nyo s V12 amps...

many thanks po...

the amp is normal in heating up, but if its too high, it is due to the load it carries, mostly then if its too low in impedance, if you drive seps and subs to a 4 channel amp, its normal heating up because its driving low and high and usually loading different resistance, the seps and the subs, if its shut down, the protection is on, the amp cannot carry the load or the power shortage is in the issue, low current supply can produce strong DC out that can seriously damage your speakers. the amp shut down also if there is a short circuit in the speaker line other than the load, maybe something is touching the ground so if the issue is when you rise the volume, the amp shut down.

May alam ba kayong magandang seps and coax? I want it to be as simple as possible kasi and space-saver dapat ang magiging set-up, kaya i didn't ask for subs and amps. Sana medyo cheap lang kasi pang palit lang naman sa stock.

Btw, this is for Isuzu Crosswind.

front speaker ng Isuzu crosswind is 5" but kasya dyan yung 6.5, lagyan lang spacer and kunting bawas sa gilid nung butas, sa likod ganun din, pwede na jan ang JBL na 6.5 at kahit na coax sa likod.

Sir anong magandang set up ng 10" or 12" sub and amplifier ng hindi ma-compromise ang space ng husto para sa crosswind XUV side facing seats. Is there a way that it can be custom fitted ng hindi maaapektuhan ang seats sa likod or can it be mounted somewhere else ng walang istorbo? Thanks in advance po.

these is what i do to a system that need just a little space, starting for a 12" dual voice coil (4ohms) 300watts rms subwoofer is a good option, mounted in a sealed type box of internal volume 1.25 cu.ft., maliit lang po ito, for almost 23.5 in length and 10.5 depth, kasya kahit nakababa yung dalawang upuan sa likod and facing the subs to the trunk, if you are a universal music lover, listening to a good music or want to sing along with it while along the high way, sealed box is for you, these box has a good frequency response and can follow as low as 20hz up to 150hz from which a good low frequency is produce, a dual 4ohms voice coil 300watts sub is easily to drive even a good 4 channel amp because there too many option that we have here, we can wire in 2 ohms if you want much louder and harder, we got 8ohms if you want soft bass and to value good music and never hear any distortion,and we can wire even in 4ohms stereo for that if you want in the middle of it.. the choice is yours, all of them are available in our shop, meron promo ngayun ang shop for only 12k and three cars are already bangin' in the street for that type of system, except sir jedi, his shakin' the street...

look and sound really nice, thank you for the enlightenment sir.

pls. advice on how to set up audio system for a car. i want to have a descent sound. i'm looking at pioneer stereo system with pioneer or dai-ichi speakers (depends on the budget).

looking at pioneer's site... there are 3 way, 4 way speakers. currently, i'm thinking of having 4 speakers then later on amplifier and subs (if necessary).

do i need to put 2 x 3 way at front then 2 x 4 way at the back? or 4 way or 3 way for all the speakers? what should be the wattage?

re amplifier, what should i look for? wattage?

btw, are dai-ichi speakers good?
