Hey McClaren it will be nice to catch up and learn the ropes while you do the install !

Let me know when you guys are doing it. I stay in Malleswaram.

navin · 6th March 2006, 10:25

Mclaren, just re-read this thread. I'd say that try the single 10". see if JB can loan you a 2nd 10" and try 2 x 10". and only if neither of these satisfy your bass needs look at a 15". 2 x 10" move about teh same ammount fo air as a 1 x 15" if they have the same Xmax.

15" advantage:
Lower Fs - given the right box you can get some thunderous lows

2x10" advantage:
Lower Mms and usually higher BL/Mms ratio: This tranlates to a bass that while not as low as a 15" can provide a lot of "kick".

it like comparing a kettle-drum to a kick-drum. the 15" will really make a difference if you listen ot organ music while the 2 x10 might be prefered if you stick to rock-pop and jazz.

Souljah - Certainly would love to meet up with u soon .. However planning to install my setup after the speedrun .. So if u can wait that long that is .. I think u can meet us soon maybe at the next meet ...

vivek - Unless u quit ur current job i cant see u having time to even breathe .. Wondering how ul make it to this one .. Im sure sam is still cursing u for not making it to the launch party

.. Anyways will let u know in advance so tht u can TRY ..

Navin - Will speak to JB and let u know the details .. As of now im totally confused , and as usual u guys are just adding to it

.. Keep it going ...

Vivekphadnis · 7th March 2006, 11:26

Mclaren, when is the speed run? And please let me know when you are doing the installation. I would be happy to come and help out.

Ok here is what i have decided ..

1. Hertz 6.5'' compos for the front .. Buying them shortly ...
2. Hertz 5.25'' compos for the rear on the parcel tray .. Using the existing ones from the zen ..
4. 2 10'' subs from hertz , buying one shortly apart from the one that i already had on the zen .. These will be on the parcel tray too ..
5. Alpine MRV-F450 amplifier ..
6. Audison cables and wiring - planning to buy them shortly ...

So guys what do u think ... The setup should be done maybe in the next day or two perhaps if venu has the stock of all the stuff i need that is ... Vivek , so u free by any chance .. Its time for some DIY ..

Hello Friends. My name is Sam.

I want to know if that short little boy from bangalore is going to put flickering Disco lights in his new car.

Na... thats just his brake lights/ reverse lights from his attempts to do candence braking and reverse J turns at the same time

Sam Kapasi · 10th March 2006, 15:24

No NO ajmat, for sure he used to have flashing disco lights under the zen.
In fact look at the choice of name of this thread:"It's time to ICE my baleno". Isn't it similar to that well-loved classic family song "It's the time to disco" (Sing to the tune... It's the time to ICEmybaleno)
This choice shows a latent desire to be associated with all things discoic.

I promise you, Disco Stuart will be back in Bangalore. And driving safely, we hope. Not like disco deewane.

In closing i will add - for my pint sized ICE fanatic these classic words
Samjho zara tum isko, it's the time to disco.

navin · 10th March 2006, 15:29

Warning! Sam's getting frisky again! :-)

Components on rear parcel tray???? Navin,gunbir,JB,sam plz do comment abt sound stage? Wont rear tweeters have some effect on front tweeters ??

mclaren1885 · 10th March 2006, 18:00

i dont think ajmat saw the disco 82 in its prime form .. I still remember sam dancing with joy like a small babbling baby at vahaan yatra after seeing the strobes and the neons on the zen ... So sammy u think i should put them on the baleno too ??? Bcoz i have them lying idle at home .. What say ??

there are 6.5 inch components in the front and 5.25 in the rear.so that wont be a problem.it will be a perfect front sound stage.

If one has disco lights in the car, is it called a 'glow job'?
