100 K = Rs. 1,00,000/- [Rupees 1 lac only].  I could extend that a bit, if I get something 'special' & 'audiophilic' !!! Performance & result is what I care about. Kindly suggest. Awaiting reply. | |

My preferrances are Classical & Light Female vocal Jazz & Soft Rock. I like to listen to Symphonic pieces [classical] - Mahler - Ressurrection [Sym # 02] + Bethoven # 9 etc. Alan Parsons Project + Yello + Pink Floyd + Dire Straits etc. Mary Black + Amanda McBroom + Rebecca Pidgeon + Kari Bremnes etc. Basically, this has to be an out & out SQ install. No hiphop / No trance / No house etc. | |

| 30 K is not going to hack it for me !!! Need better SQ........... Quote:
Sir, I read that post; However, it stops @ Rs. 30/- K I guess my HU will cost that much. I was looking for a Alpine HU. I believe that the 9887 is good ? Alternate Suggestions ? Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. - CDA-9887 Thank you all; I shall appreciate the help & suggestions. Respectfully, BHAGWAN | |

| Senior - BHPian  | Well am not a 'senior' here. But it's always nice to think about how to spend money  . You might need to breakup the total budget roughly into component wise costs and then look for products in that price range. Say, something like HU - 20K 2/3 way front compos - 15K Amp for front compos - 15K 12"/15" sub - 20K Mono Amp for sub - 20K Wiring/Install/Damping - 10-15K Then again if you go for one 4ch/5ch Amp, the mono budget can be spread out to the other items. Edit: Those figures are rough numbers. Last edited by shuvc : 27th February 2008 at 16:44. |

A possible break-up would be: 1. HU - 16-17k 2. Front comps - 25-30k 3. Sub - 12-15k (I dont think you'll need 2 subs based on your musical tastes, and since you have a small car) 4. Amp - 4 channel - Rs. 45-50k 5. Cabling/ Enclosure/ Installation/ Damping - 15-20k Roughly about 125-135k total. | |

2. Make a list of your priorities. With the budget you've got you need not make too many compromises. 3. Keep in mind that the i10 has it's limiations - it is a small car, with a small engine and thin body panels. Adding 30 kg of weight in damping, amplifiers, speakers and the associated electrical load will be felt (if slightly). HU: 9887 or any that has TA and SQ: 20K Components: Illusion/Infinity/Hertz: 12K Coax in rear doors: same as above 6K Dual 10" subs: IDQ: 16K Amps: 1 5/6 ch amp or a monoblock and a 4ch. amp. 30K Damping: 8K Wires and Install: 8K I am not sure that the prices above are accurate (infact I am sure they are not) but it will give you an idea. | |
