Sealed is the best but then you will need more power like from a separate monoblock amp to drive that.
Do give both these setups tube/ported box a good listen with the type of music you listen to.
You can setup the filters in the amp to get low sub freq to the sub and the higher frequencies to the components. The crossover will then split up the frequencies further to the components.

Hmmm, I will listen to some installs. But all I see is box(sealed unsealed ported whatever). Very few people have tubes.

tsk: I think the JVC GIGA MP3 cum DVD cum USB head unit fits your profile perfectly. I think you could get one for as low as 8-9k since pre-outs etc dont mean much to you.
You can get a chaalu 7" roof mount screen for about 4.5k - better than the 2.5" LCD crap in the head unit unless you feel very generous towards your opthalmist or whatever.
You need 5.25" speakers for the doors, and 4" speakers for the dash. You'll easily get good coaxials at that price. Or do you want to get comps for both locations, that way you can position the tweeters seperately and all in all have 4 sources of sound per side in the front of your car. 
You can get a Blau GT4 special for about 6k. Its a 4-ch amp. You can use that in stereo mode to drive all 4 speakers in 2 ohms on two channels and the other two in bridged mode to drive a SVC 4 ohm sub.
HPF should ideally be a part of the HU. If not, you could set it on the amp if you use the Blau as per my suggestion.
Dont buy any tube etc, just get a good sub and put it in a box. Cheaper than the prefab solutions. |
Ahh thats great. you have listened to my install, so you know
. I want 4 speakers up front. No tweeter shweeter nonsense for me.

If I don't get 4 speaker locations, I will make them. 4 speakers in front, thats absolutely necessary.

I don't mind jugaad screens and such. Will try to save money there and get a Blau 4ch amp for 6K. That should be nice.

By 4 speakers, I think you mean a component kit. Right? Yes, the one which comes with 2 uffers and 2 tutors.
You can avoid the rear speakers if You're not very keen on it.

Grey is fine by me. I have seen that HUs seldom fail within warranty period. They fail 1 day after the warranty expires. If you go to service center they start working fine, and then when you come home they fail again.
So I guess this is what I do.
1. Get the HU for 9K and fix a 4K Jugaad screen: 13K
2. Get a 4ch Blau amp for 6K = 19K
3. Get the component set for around 6K (Does it have 4 speakers?) = 25K
4. Get a sub for around 5K(including box) = 30K
5. Threaten the dealer for a discount = -5K = 25K, maybe kidnap his family
6. Wiring shiring and stuff = 5K = 30K
So my budget of 30K stays.
Actually a lot depends on what is bought. If I reclaim then I may be so poor that I buy a 9K JVC without screen + 4 speakers and total cost is 15K. Then save up and spend 15K later.
But whatever I buy 30K will be the max budget, and I want to to have 4GB music on one disc. DivX is good, because I can encode 4 ch sound into DIVx besides one disc can have 10 movies. If I get bored while driving I can watch movies too.
Can I mount screen on steering wheel? Just kidding
