What ICE & @ What Price

theEnd · 22nd August 2006, 00:08

Thanks for the advice gunbir and Sam. When I make my first million I'll bring my Shelby Cobra to you guys for some sound work.

Too bad I had no clue Boss wiring was crappy. (Note to self: next time insist on the Audison rather than succumb to the shopkeeper's marketing ploys) In any case it gives me something to look forward to next time I take it in for rewiring etc.

Sam might be pleased to know that I have heeded his frequent advice and planned a trip into the ghats with a very pretty lady. Anybody know a nice hill lodge where the owners dont complain if it gets too noisy... I mean the car of course

Now there's a good man. I can assure you that Audison make some really great wiring products.

Now there's an excellent man. I tell you these people waste all their time with all this speaker wire stuff. Very pretty ladies are the best way to go.

Now you're talking about the real thing man!! I'm proud of you. I know a couple of great hideaways

PM me your budget and preference of location.
Meanwhile let me try to convince GTO to start a women, wine and sex section with me as administrator.

BTW we are dangerously OT.

Navinji, you should teach us some of those tweaks for the crossovers. Sometimes, I feel to change my crossovers to my personal tastes. But I'm very afraid to do so. BTW, anybody uses Hertz HSK130 5.25" components? I would like to know how they sound.

before you go there get LSPCAD or CLio or some such simulation software. it wont do everythig but it will give you a good idea of what each component is doing. LSPCAD has a freeware version called Lite.

Here's my systems Update , though on the lower side as i didn't wanted to get any subs occupying my bootspace.
Car-Suzuki Swift vxi-abs
Hu-Pioneer 4850
Front- Components JBL 606
Rear- 2-way speaker system again JBL
Sub-woofer-None
Amplifiers-None
SAM's orange JBL air freshner hanging on my rearview mirror.

Future Upgrades- A JBL 60.4 amp

I'm satisfied with the sound , but need to do something about the vibrating doors. I guess i'll need damping ( thanks to all the gyan provided on Team-bhp.com )

How much did it cost ? - 13k (all grey so don't be suprised)

3.How serious were your about your system?- Not that much obssesed but landing up on team-bhp.com sure did help me in understading the basics of ICE to get it right.

4. Which kind of music do you listen to ? Loads of desi, rap and sometimes gazal.

5. Would you recommend it to others? To those who want nice sound with low budget.

Congratulations. And welcome to Team-BHP.
Nice setup there bro!

Get your doors damped and the sound will be more enjoyable.
