Hi All!
Let me confess straight-up that if you call me a newbie in the world of ICE, it would be just plain slander against newbies of ICE!
I bought a Fiesta 1.4ZXI in Sep '07 and the showroom-wallas bundled me with a basic Kenwood HU (KDC4019). Yes yes, no ports (holes) to plug in iPods and other such esoteric stuff
And they installed 4 XPlod speakers. It was ok, till about fifteen thousand people commented acidicly that it sucked!
To be honest, it does. Pull the volume level above 22 and the ICE begs to be switched off! So, I am planning to go in for a speakers upgrade. (Please don't blast me if speakers are called components or coaxials or woogieboogie nowdays!). Asked around and got the feedback that JBL is the king of sorts. [Btw, what effect does HU have on sound quality?]
So, I am here for some much needed advice. What speakers should I go in for? I am more of a subdued listener - perfer contemporary music (less Himess Bhai), quite a bit of Nirvana & Metallica fan and ofc Jagjit Bhai forever
My budget about 10K. But please not above 15K! [Yes, I read the 'Statutory Warning' thread, point #6!]
Hope that was quick! Awating some responses.
Thanks a lot!
