If you want new components and not used ones, you can try Chequered flag. They have both Focal and Infinity.
I have never heard Infinity but I am hearing focal everyday and I can vouch for them. |
Thanks, I will check with Chequered flag too. Quote:

The second option is good if the vehicle is self driven mostly. This way, you are actually dedicating the amp only to the fronts in bridged mode, giving them more power than compared to the 4 channel mode (front & rear). And the rears being connected to HU will still be playing giving a ambient effect. This also helps when you have people at back.
Both the options are good enough with your existing setup and a new set of components. You only have to decide how you want to distribute your amps power by how many people are seated inj the car.
There are some good compos in 10k price range. There are some nice VFM ones less than 8k also. But instead keep you budget at 10k and listen to as many brands and models you can listen to. Because you may like a lesser priced one as per your listening taste.
Hope I made some sense to you.. |
That sounded like a sound idea. I am 80% alone in the car and drive almost 55km-60km everyday which translates to me being in the car for about 2.5 hours a day so good set-up is very important to me.
However, the problem is no outfit will let you audition to them so need to stick to references and vouches only.
Checked the pricing for following component brands from Pavan Electronics in Hyderabad. He is the authorized distributor for JBL in Hyd.
JBL 265C : Rs.5000 ( MRP Rs.6990)
Infinity Reference 6030CS: Rs.7900 ( MRP Rs.9900)
Above is the best pricing and installation will be done free of cost. Which of the two you folks suggest? I know Infinity is superior that JBL but, is it worth the price difference? Also, will it fit into my existing equipment of the car?
Pavan Electronics has senior installers with 12-13 years of experience and their suggestion was connect 2 channels of Sony Amp to Comps and 2 channels for the rear speakers. 4 channels bridged to the comp idea was not taken effectively by them as according to them even the rear speakers need some amp juice..LOL
So which one should i invest in considering the point i wont probably get an audition for either.
Also can so someone confirm if the pricing is right? Quote:

That was hilarious. Even i started imagining the passengers and stick all available speakers in the car into their ears to get a feedback from them |
