Lovely tweeter pods. Feel like getting one installed. Gurus, can you tell me if this would improve my soundstage. I've currently got the tweeters in the stock location.

Head Unit

Ok, Now the Front stage is done, I had initially planned to run the setup off the Stock Hu, reason being that I liked the Stock look and moreover It would keep the green eyed devils away, But then I heard a Friends car, Having some very nice equipment like Hertz and Audison, but still was sounding very FLAT due to the HU. So If i wanted some serious sound the HU was bound to get changed.

The next question which HU?? Single Din's were ruled out because they would not look sitting at the dash, Atleast I did not like it, So the option left was the Kenwood 8032BT Double din touchscreen. SAM had this in his car before the P80RSII and the HU sounded very nice and not to mention the load of extra features i would get, Including twin USB ports and Bluetooth phone connectivity. Fitting this required a Dash kit which was easily sourced by GYRO. Some pics of the same.

Thanks, Trust me it makes a hell lot of difference, Its much better than the stock locations for the simple reason that, At the stock location the reflections of the windscreen, make the tweeters sound very very bright and not to mention the Delay in sound due to the increased Tweeter and midbass distance.

Its just fill in the blanks. The one we studied in 5th standard, but the subject is not English / Hindi / History

You teased us during your ICE thread

@M4U there wont be any problem with speaker cable and power cable running together. I have done it the same way. My right Speaker and Tweeter cables are running together with Power cable. Its almost 1 year since i did that. No problems whatsoever.

generally there is no problem but it is always better to run speaker/rca from one side and power from other side.
this prevents the humming sound which generally come when you use cheep cables and can distort audio signal also.
