Nice system GTO! if i do get time to take pics where should i post them? I dont want to clog this forum so a link would be nice.

BTW dont use puny amps with subs. bass demands power and globs of it. 35W rms would be a starting point. also see if you can get an amp with a built in parametric EQ. it helps tune the bass so it does not boom. there are 3 fundamental parameters Q, F, and db. most amps allow atelast F and db to be controled. a few even allow Q. for the car enviroment a 3 band Parametric would do.

Does the TS 305W have a foam surround?

th for the info guys

will keep it in mind

navin · 27th September 2004, 15:01

GTO, how did you take care that the back pressure of the 305W did not modulate the 6x9's midwoofer in your rear deck.

GTO · 27th September 2004, 18:48

Honestly I dont know. Had an audio engineer buddy (cum audio workshop owner) help me out with the installation.

navin · 28th September 2004, 01:42

GTO, sorry i meant to ask - is the 305W or the 6x9s in a box of some kind?

GTO · 28th September 2004, 12:02

Nope. They are open from the back. I have installed them on a 19mm MDF platform at the rear shelf. The trunk serves as the box

Sorry to bring this thread alive again...

I also need a CD/MP3/VCD changer into my Ikon which has Kenwood CD/MD Changer.

I have a tight budget and if I get a second hand one, will be good..
Model: KRC 387
Thanks guys..

Looking forward

If possible try to get the MP3/ VCD Conversion in the existing CD changer.
I think it would not cost you more than a couple of ,000.

dev · 8th August 2005, 12:42

Thanks for responding...
Currently I don't have any CD Player... I need one(if possible a second hand, since mine is used vehicle).
Any suggestions where I can get one?
Or how much it will cost for a 6/12 CD changer whjich has MP3 and VCD features?

navin · 8th August 2005, 14:26

what is your budget dev? from what i hear amongst the budget models sony seems to have the best sound.

dev · 8th August 2005, 15:12

Thanks Navin for replying..
My Budget is around 4K..
And is Sony compatible with Kenwood?

thanks
