How it sounds:-I don't know!!! music is just flowing into body, sound calms me down so much, precision is quite evident. One get to hear the instruments that never had been heard before, twice I stopped my car (On way back Home) to check from were sound was coming and finally I came to know that it was an instrument being played in the song. I left Rajat's place at 9:40, I reached chandigarh by 11, but wanted to listen to my system more and I have to keep the engine on so thought of driving on, and you all won't believe I end up droving to Shimla and the distance seemed so small, music was so mesmerizing spent around an hour in Shimla, transferred some more songs to the USB drive from my PC, i was on road again. I enjoyed driving after a long long time!!! Reached Home at 3:45 in the morning.
The experience was ....(U all know)I have no words so I won't say anything,but one thing for sure it is way way better the being in bed with woman!!
Now coming to crusade (I connote it as crusade as three of us took the challenge to do it on our own, though temptation kept on pressing till end, to get it done from delhi)friends satisfaction is tremendous every single part transformed into a system by our hands in front of our eyes, Telling all you friends, sounds seems 10 times more sweeter if you do it on your own. One more plus is that one knows how the things are placed in the system and how are they working!! Yesterday's experience just simply overwhelming!!! CLIP n Scary did it, like it was there system. Rishab n Rajat are out to sound fanatic. Rishab is the sort of guys who will die to do the setup on his own and best thing about him is he goes into tiny details and he won't consider it done till it's 100%, to him even 99.9% won't do!! Same is for Rajat.
It took around 3 hours for us to tune the system, sounds out of this world!! and we will keep on working on the system to make it better tuning wise!!
Thanks goes out to all of you who helped me out one way or the other!! I am saying this as you all made me think n dream about the system, that dream was realised yesterday!
Special thanks to Gunbir n Brar saab!!! You helped us a lot in planning stage. Bai ji i will keep on bugging you will question now even more regarding the system setup n tuning!!!
Story doesn't ends here (as the ICE is done) rather it's a beginning of a mystique journey and will keep on sharing the experiences and learning’s with the setup and will keep on coming back to you all for clearing doubts!!!
Now to some tiny things which are yet to be resolved:-
My HU has two preouts. So I can't use the fader and set the soundstage, though the system has option of selecting the rear or sub!!How should i go about that!!!
Pics will posted later as I shall be out of town till sunday.
By monday pics will be posted for sure!!
Request to Mods:-Plz delete my last post!!!! |
hi gill saab,
it was really nice to meet a pleasant person like you and to be a part of your ice install.
you drove to shimla and came back????? my god. you surely did enjoy the music and im more than happy and satisfied.
let me tell you one thing...you have a really really good equipment and the best is the sub. guys the bass was amazing and it did go quite low make it extremely low without giving up or running out of breath.
your install can be termed Low Bass Maker. low doesn't necessary mean loud.
i love the sq.
gill, i love audio especially DIY. when i do something to my car, i forget every other thing. it was the same with yours. i would have really felt bad if we could not finish it in time. i understand the excitement of getting a new car and and installing top grade audio equipment with your hard earned money.
whatever i say is less. its that good.
and now coming to your query regarding the fader control. it is not possible to fade the speakers with your current HU. that doesn't mean you cant listen to just the front stage. i have a nice solution. i even discussed it with Gunbir and he has given his approval.
what you have to do is , go to an electronic components store and ask for a double pole double throw switch(gunbir, please confirm if this is the right swiitch. now wire the rear fills through this(il tell later how to wire them) when you keep the switch in off position, the speakers will be turned off.
IMHO, this is the best solution. cant do better than this with your current HU.
cheers
