When you get back to your installer tell them to check the ground of the HU.

the stock HU normally can power the speakers at decent volume without external amp. but yes, confirm niya muna sa installer baka lang may isyu sa connection.

Guys,

Planning to upgrade my vios speakers (front 2-Way Separate) to Pioneer TS-A1606C.
Any recommendation on what yung match na amplifier? pasama na din sub.
Prefer sana pioneers din pero if mas may okay mas better.

Been using pioneer x595BT Headunit.

Any recommended trusted shop sa South (Muntinlupa , Laguna)?
Willing din pumunta sa banawe. Any trusted shop?
Any shop na open ng Sunday morning para less traffic

Thank you.

Recently got these as a gift and had them installed on the CRV. No idea if this is a good set but I just finished setting it up with its fancy DSP that auto-tunes everything with just a click of a button.

Sound is noticeably better than the stock system with a soundstage at center of the dashboard and a richer sound with deeper bass and more pronounced highs.

However, the vocals feel slightly overpowered by the instruments so I used the stock HU EQ to boost treble a bit to have more clarity with the vocals.

Is this a decent set? Haven't upgraded any of my cars' audio systems prior to this.

Follow up question - the sound stage is very nice when seated on the driver's side, but when on the front passenger seat it doesn't sound the same, although it still sounds good. When tuning, is the sound really just optimized for one spot?

Yes the soundstage is optimized sa driver's side. You can retune it para yung sound is balanced between the driver and passenger seat but it won't be the same.

Good package yan for some who's looking for a sound upgrade. The same set is being sold at 65k ata sa Ayala-owned Honda dealerships. Where did you have your tweeter pods fabricated? I think no tweeter provision yung 2.0S same as the 1.6V.

Just ordered the tweeter housing of the 1.6S from Honda QC then had them installed along with the speakers.
