Have been burnt in the past and therefore took the b&w option this time around for the speakers. But all in all a great setup and would love to hear them sometime. Blue is a great guy to get your ICE done in Blore. Cheers and best of luck. |
Hi Maverick,
The momos retail for 12,500 and my logic was that I could pick up two sets speakers for that price in grey. in other words if one set goes I can always get another one. Besides warranty is generally for an year only. Quote:

- How much did Scosche wiring kit cost you?
- Did you look at other 6x9 speakers before finalizing on Polk? (e.g. JBL GTO937, Ground Zero etc).
- Did you compare GT5 604 with other similar amplifiers in that price range? (Kenwood 8401 or Blaupunkt GT4)? |
In terms of auditioning other euipment, I did a misture of auditioning and also talking to experts like satya.
In the 6x9 range I listened to polk db's, 937 and infinity reference. The polk and infinity were clear and had decent bass, the 937 on the other hand had good bass (rock sounds good on 937) but clarity was a problem.
For the rest of the speakers I could not audition I spoke to Satya, he his pretty neutral like I already pointed out and you can go by his word in shortlisting the speakers.
The amp wiring kit plus the scosche wiring was part of the 4500 package so I dont have the individual prices. Quote:

Believe satya did a great job with his mischief :-)
Waiting for your pictures |
Yup I beleive Satya did his usual magic :-)
Satya said that I need not go for damping unless I go for a subwoofer. My Swift is new so it is pretty much holding up at the moment, probably will have to go for damping in the future. Quote:

Again there were very little possibilities for me to audition the components, I just went by advice by Satya and my own research on the net.
One think you need to keep in mind while auditioning speakers is that every speaker set needs to be tuned through the headunit for optimal perfomance. Bad tuning can result in an excellent speaker sounding bad so make sure you audition the speakers in a car which ahs been tuned properly (try to use the teambhp meets)
Pictures coming over the weekend! |
