Congrats!! The IDQ12V3 looks real nice. Did you buy it in india or had it imported ?

Bass&Trouble · 29th October 2009, 13:40

What's the price of the mono?

Sound_Affects · 29th October 2009, 13:57

Bought it from India itself from GYRO

The mono's for 17500 MRP

Congrats
I like the sub stage.
No damping? That should have been recommended for the accent as the door pads will rattle @ higher volumes.

You should think of exchanging the Sound Barrier amp for something much better.
Who suggested you this entire configuration by the way??

Technocrat · 29th October 2009, 15:06

Looks like nicely balanced setup, Congrats

@frank- He asked for suggestions on This thread

Congrats, an awesome set up for an Accent.

Since Accent insulation is not the best. Did you get any dampening done? Doesn't your rear number plate knock when the bass increases?

Despite damping in my car the rear number plate use to make a lot of sound. So i dumped the number plate and got a "look-alike" sticker

Pricing of all components would be nice.

frankmehta · 29th October 2009, 15:21

Oops. Didn't notice the thread. Anyways, is there scope of exchanging Sound Barrier for something better?

First thing that crossed my mind, after looking at the install pics.

Thirdly, and IMHO, IDQ and RF Mono deserve better source unit + components.

Sound_Affects · 29th October 2009, 18:37

@ Frank,
yes a change is most certainly around the corner either a kenwood 2 channel or another RF. Its due to lack of M factor that i have postponed the damping for next month

@greenhorn,
Will get the damping done next month

certainly they deserve better source units and comps. and i have already ordered the comps(ID CTX 65cs) which I will be getting around Dec so till then using BULL audio

@mobike008,
The number plate does rattle and will get all the damping done in a couple of weeks time

frankmehta · 29th October 2009, 18:52

Oh brilliant. Damping+new amp+new components! Sounds like a killer setup already!

hellraiser_yank · 29th October 2009, 20:41

nice setup. can you post some pics of the setup from the inside(tweeter positioning and the HU.
also can you pm me the costs of the id sub and the rf amp if possible.

cheers

Congratulations on your New ICE Setup, some more pics would be appreciated!!

sam_786 · 30th October 2009, 00:19

Congrats Sound Affects on your install. iDQ is a very nice subwoofer. I would suggest you to change your Sound Barrier Amp with Kenny or Rockford, I have auditioned both the amps, not much of a sound difference. If you want more power then go for Rockford else Kenny is more than enough.

For how much you are getting the iD CTX?

Hey SoundAffects congrats on your install! If you remember i met you at DRIVEN that day
