Good quality audio stereo |
Thu 15 Dec 2011 11:48:14 AM |
Does anybody know a good supplier/dealer for a good quality car audio system? I don't want doof-doofness but I want good quality, I only know about hifi home based stereo systems and the car audio seems so much different, so any help or if you can guide me.
PS my engrish is impeccable. |

Cadence speakers are good, Alpine type R or type R are great.
I have a pair of 6.5" rockford fosgate splits in mine with a cheap JVC head unit and standard speakers in the rear. Good sound and i can plug my iPhone in to it. You want to focus on the decent front speakers the rears just sort of fill in the background a bit. Head units JVC, Pioneer are the two i have had across my cars always reliable. |

I did a thorough research while it's awfully quiet at work and I think I'm aiming too high, but I'm an audiophile... But suggestions are always welcome and regarded!

Lol very vague...depend on ur type of music style and how much money u willing to spend I wouldnt bother buying those $500 speakers, they might sound good, i dont really know, but unless u want to spend $$$ to get the most out of them i would bother. Just get any $100ish speakers that fit the door and be happy with it. |

Since I've made up my mind with the car being under the sun alot and not a good idea to put an expensive set of stereo system in it, I might as well be going with pioneer.

im quite a fan of kicker, there not too expensive for the lower end stuff but its easily comparable to the popular brands high end stuff (sony, kenwood, pioneer) & the 12" kickpack subs are the perfect size for a small car both fitting in the boot & amount of power it has.
sorry for thread revivial, maybe someone new might find the info useful :-) |

Oh it's just that I didn't (and still don't) know about car stereo at all whereas I've spent 5 figures in headphones and home stereo already...
But I don't even listen to anything while I'm driving now anyway so I guess I've given up. |

I have Alipne "Type R" speakers in all four corners of my skyline with a kenwood TV deck and it sounds amazing

I'm currently using a set of jaycar 6" Kevlar splits for the front and have to say that they are the best speakers I have ever purchased. I would highly recommend these to anyone who wants bang for buck. I'm sure you can get better quality splits when you start paying $400-500. But these Kevlar splits are fantastic.
I would also recommend that when you do your fit out, install a decent amp and run all your speakers through it. This reduces the need for subs. Good luck with car audio install. |
