ok po sundin ko yung sinabi mo sir mas maganda nga po kung isang amplifier lang yung gamit ko sa dalawang sub, bali ibibridge ko nalang parehas. salamat ng madami dito sir!

sir ano po ba mas maganda dun sa dalawa kong amplifier para mag drive sa sub ko? mrv 1507 or mrv 1608?

nga pala sir, tanong ko na din yung ginawa kong pang signal sa REM ng amplifier ko, konsulta ko na hanggat maaga pa, kasi po kumuha ako ng positive directly from the battery and connected to a switch run to REM, ok lang ba yan sir? wala ba ako magiging problema pag tumagal? kaya ko po yan ginawa para kung sakaling gusto ko patayin yung amplifier anytime, pwede ko siya ma turn off.

Di kolang po sure kung anu rating differences nung dalawa sir, medyo di ako updated sa mga V-12 amplifiers e, piliin mo na lang is yung mas mataas ng rating.
About remote po naman, ang problema mo dito is if once na nakalimutan mo na ma turn off yung switch, sigurado, low bat pati battery mo nun if you leave that things overnight, same lang nung sa remote out ng headunit mo, and have another switch for the purpose na pwede mo sya patayin anytime, stay safe na lang po tayo, kelangan din po kase na low current lang remote para di agad masira yung amp. Good luck sir, maaayus mo na rin yan set up mo, he he. Thanks for trusting us..

Naku buti nalang sir nakunsulta ko kagad yung mga wirings na ginagawa ko, salamat ng madami sa mga tips and info Sir.!

sir ganito po naman naisip ko, from blue wire sa HU ko, instead na rekta sa REM sa amplifier, pwede ko po sya lagyan ng switch papunta sa REM, para kahit makalimutan ko walang kuryenteng pumpasok sknya, at pwede ko sya i-turn off kahit umaandar yung HU ko, tama po ba naisip ko sir?

Ganito po, anung head unit po ba yan, anung sub, anung size nung sub, dual 4 ohms ba yan, ilang watts, anung seps, ilang watts din, anung amp po ba yan, 4 channel po ba, anung wiring na po ang meron kayo,? paki post po lahat ng information, salamat..

Sir, medyo mahihirapan na akong ibigay ang lahat ng detalye dahil naipauwi ko na yung mga units...pero if i remember it right yung HU ko ay JENSEN VM9414 Multimedia Receiver, Infinity Kappa Series Automotive LoudSpeaker component system 1.5 CS, Infinity Kappa Series Perfect 12 VQ Automotive Subwoofer 12", kung di po ako nagkakamali ay 1600watts po ito. AKAI power amp 4 channels not sure of the watts capacity napashipped narin, Audio Cable set yung galing amps papuntang terminal and speakers and sub. I'll be there soon sir, pinakamabuti siguro dadalhin ko nalang jan sa inyo para madetermine kung ano ano pa kakailanganin for the set up. But just to give you an idea, full setup po ng sound system kasama enclosure and probably some modification on front speaker enclosure...thanks for your time sir..

atlast may additional income na for my setup..
present HU is Pioneer 415S0SD, stock front and rear speakers..
do i need 2change my HU? or pwede pa yan? (HU will be used to power my future coax and seps)
budget is unahin ko sana low-med tier ampli and low-med tier subs(2 subs sana with box sa compartment) [boom2x mode]
will my 15k be enuf considering wiring + installation?
(ampli is for my subs lng and ung may off switch na manual in case like ko coax and seps lng nagpeplay - my baby kasi)
2 follow nlng sana ung coax and seps po..
and im from pangasinan area po.. may i recommend ba kayo area na malapit here for proper installation and tuning??
tnx and more power tsikot.com and members

Since you're looking for "bass down low", best to stick with the existing HU and speakers first.

Get a mono-amplifier to power your 2 subwoofers. I would consider 2 10-inchers or 2 12-inchers if you still need more in a ported box. Kasya ba 15k? Yes. Just snoop around.. although the usage of MRV-V12s seems inevitable here. Mahal kasi mono-amplifiers of known brands, easily costing 10k upwards.

**poochie02** · August 14th, 2011 11:14 PM

tnx sa info sir,
went to snoop around last friday, went sa "dan's car" dagupan, eto yung sinabi nung audio guy
18k install+wires+ lightning audio(forgot what model, mono siya mga 400-500rms yata[9.5k daw po ung ampli) + kicker sub(CRV or CVR 12inch 1 pc 300/400rms[max 800watts] + custom fit box sa compartment + tuning
if stick ako sa 15k mag change nalang daw po nya yung Lightning audio ampli ng lower rms rating which is mono din

and yung other audio shop na napuntahan ko around 14k daw
x12 ampli 4000watts(forgot model) + wiring + ready made 12inch pioneer na naka box na, around 7k daw po yung price nun + tuning
parang wala ako bilib dun sa nakausap ko since he sounded like he doesn't know what he's saying or bagu lang sya cguro..
i still have 1 more audio shop na hindi napuntahan though, if pangit sa 3rd option, ok na ba ung sa first na napuntahan ko? parang ang mahal nmn po nung sinabi nya kasi 1pcs 12inch sub lng..

sana malapit lang ako sa area nyo mga master, mukahang mas madali makahanap dyan ng sulit..

**tsikotshop** · August 15th, 2011 11:01 AM

Ang ganda ng prices na binigay sayo sir a, amp+1sub+custom box+wiring, 18k? Wala pang seps yan..
Here is the prices guide for some basic set-up from sir Jedi, http://tsikot.com/forums/deal-week-1...omo-d-s-78643/
And the system planning guide is in this page, http://tsikot.com/forums/car-audio-v...-set-up-81138/.
If this is your first time doing sound set up in car, better is planning, para di kayo magastusan ng di nyo inaasahan, like na lang if tapos na yung system tapos di kayo satisfied sa tunog.

**poochie02** · August 15th, 2011 10:04 PM

nawala post ko.. nyway tnx sa info ser..
so ur saying na overprice sa da's car ser? how much over price ung binigay na deal sakin? la kasi me alam sa car audio and ung pinuntahan ko ser eh yun na pinaka magandang car accessory shop na napuntahan ko d2 samen.. and first car ko ung pinapalagyan ko although 3rd hand user na ako.. hehe..

**tsikotshop** · August 16th, 2011 12:44 AM

I don't think it's overprice sir, siguro ganyan talaga ang presyuhan dyan since malayo dito sa sentro, just follow the planning page na lang po para meron din kayo idea, kapag alanganin po kayo sa installer, better to find another shop that has a good installer, a 13k budget set-up will rock you basta proper ang installation and tuning, sa 18k na budget, baka morel na speakers mo nun ,tsk!
Pag wala po kayo mahanap na installer, alam ko bulacan meron na e, or dito na rin sa sentro, marami din ako costumer from Laoag pa nga and Isabela e, sakin din nagpapa install dati, nagtayo din ng shop dun, tapos nag-trained na lang kami ng installer, di ko na sila na update since wala na ko sa dati kong shop in Banawe e.
