Which is a better amp pio 6100 or 944? plz answer this question.

Anyways lots and lots of thanks to u guru log and finally i think i would be in position to finalize
what kinda setup to go for.

Go for Pioneer 7750 Headunit, Pioneer 6100 Amplifier for speakers and Pioneer 7100 M Mono Amplifier for the subwoofer. Don't consider the 944 the 6100-7100 combo is much better.

Buy a good quality subwoofer which is a good match to the amplifier and is sensitive enough to play loud.

As i told i have cleared my mind regarding blau, and now planning to go for pioneer 6100F

If pio is better than blau, then it must be better than jbl also, isnt it?

Anyways, now tell me about the wiring stuff. Now since the budget permits,
i can put in 3k-4k for wiring. Suggest me the type of wiring i should go for along with with some brand if possible.

Thanks,

Amit, you cannot say Pio is better than Blau, so it is better than JBL. It all depends on individual taste. Each one has different characteristics. Buy the one which you feel is good for your ears (and wallet).

My final decision and the setup i am going for
Amplifier: Pioneer 6100F (60rms x 4) at 4 ohms
Subwoofer: Kicker 12" power handling (50-125 rms)
OR
JBL CS1200T tube (125 rms)

Head unit: pioneer 7750
Rear speakers (already installed): pioneer REV range (yellow ones) 350w (not sure about RMS)

Just rate the setup out of 10.

first of all; benz better or bmw? or pepsi better or coke? well? apna apna taste right?

so like that, abt amps and speakers. just get good quality stuff and get it done by a good installer.

and 2 round up ur config. u gonna power all speakers frm amp and teh sub 2 frm another amp right?

Pioneer 6100F has a higher tolerance than JBL CS 50.4. JBL CS 50.4 is not designed to run subs, however you can drive a sub with the Pioneer!

how do you define "tolerance" Aseem?

amit_baghe · 5th October 2005, 10:54

now suggest me type and brand of wiring for the audio system.

My budget for wiring to 3k-4k.

Thankx

Off topic but guys, it is a Hyundai Accent not a Hyundai Ascent. It is like -

Harry Davidson
Honduh Accord
Somy Walkman
Porch 911
etc ...

For your wiring i would suggest Connection Audison ... check it out at www.connectionaudison.com

RCA Interconnects - FT2600
Power Kit - FPK300
Speaker Cable B18 - for Speakers & FL214 for subwoofer.

navin · 5th October 2005, 11:11

JB, prices would be nice too.

There is nothing like tolerance (its the stability in lower impedance). Every bridgeable amp can drive the subwoofer. Its just the matter of how well can one drive from other.

Autophile · 5th October 2005, 11:13

Yeah falls in the budget of 4-5 K...thats ok i guess
