Need help on upgrade of system

Ok current update.
The guy commented that the Peerless sub is kinda hard.
Then he recommended me a 10" Picasso E2 for 7++ including customise box
Then i ask him bout the JL that( a brand which i really like) price is about the same...7++\8++ but he said that the quality is almost the same as the picasso
Both are soft....but the JL lacks the 'punch' whereas the Picasso is soft...but it can give the 'punch'
And the picasso is actually cheaper a little...

So anyone can comment?
 
and yeah...he recommend me an Ameron 2ch amp to push the sub.
price 7++
so for the setting of my bass alone cost about 1400
hhmmm....
what do all sifus think?
i got kena potong?

hahaha the guy that suggested to you is trying to bullshit you o,don't kena brainwash before u test it. Xls peerless is 12 inch, how can it be hard, all that have to do with tuning and also depend on the enclosure,based on what that he think peerless sub is hard i really don't understand his logic. My suggestion,why don't u join the mycarhifi.com tt and listen to those icer car with peerless sub,i m sure u will find that the guy that try to sell you his stuff is really not telling you the other side of the story. Always test first,go check out all the icer car then u wil know what is hard and what is soft is a very subjective matter. That goes same too about his comment on JL audio sub like W6 thats is really a whole load of rubbish. I guess he try real hard to sell you his stuff oni,please beware,don't make ice mistake its very costly.:regular_smile:

U want heavy punch, even a lousy ah beng cap ayam sub can do it, or u can get kicker L7 12 inch,that one can easly kick ass and make u a real ah beng for boom boom boom all the time but i guess thats not what u want right? :biggrin:

and Ya! u kena sotong BIG TIME better go to more established place like KK Lau,ACP,KF Audio or CV Audio :biggrin:

eh sifu thanx for ur comment....
hmmm...i do get a little bit of feeling that he tries to push his stuff...jus a lil bit,not much.
hhmm....i donno la...quite confuse now...
What do u sifu suggest for my budget?
Do u think that the picasso sub he intrduced is good?
Also...i never heard of the brand Ameron too...anyone has experience on this?
Btw...i think this guy is kinda estd too...he's one of the judge for all those ice competition...so can't really say that he only goreng ppl...i have to say that he has his fair share of experience too...
but i donno la...i oso damn confuse aredi now...

And bout the TT stuff...i paiseh la...i donno anybody there...suddenly go there like budak sesat only....:X-:
 
Ok la...i ask for a big favour from all the sifu in this ice forum esp sifu like : Zenn,tohsan,acidcooler,appleyard,craziechild,oldscoolboyz,nicholaslkh and other sifu that i missed out....
Can u guys pls recommend me a Full active 3 way system with the budget of rm2500 maximum - excluding Hu,Crossover and tweeter(cos i have already)
Can u guys pls gimme a good value for money advice?I really damn kelam kabut,penat,pening,pengsan aredi...
Ice really difficult...have to count ohm la,watt la...the guy explain to me oso i donno what he's talking about....like go back fizik class only..

This is what the guy recommend me.
Picasso Sub E2 1050(if not mistaken)
Ameron 2ch Amp
Price = 1400
Free cable, tuning installation and Customise box included.
This is the first half

The second half = a component set(RM600) + a 4ch amp(RM7++) + a used coustic 3 way crossover(RM450) = about 1800
So total = Rm3200 = over budget

Not much discussion on the second part cos i emphasise more on my first round of upgrade first.Thus i cannot give the detail of the model of the second half upgrade..


p/s:Can anyone tell me the minimum requirement for the JL sub 10" to be pushed by an amp?He said since it's double coil...so require monoblock...i donno whether my amp manage to push or not....how the rate the power of an amp?
Thanx

do u try out ameron before? if not pls dun say ameron is shit! Do u know ameron just win the champion for the IASCA in few weeks before!
 
for 1.5k u can get a 5ch alpine or soundstream amp and the balance u can get a used sub RM400-500 and possibly a new midrange RM500-600, dont forget to look around at used items in mycarhifi.com and gr8tunes.net also, if u want to visit kf audio pm me first, im not there everyday anymore...

My opinion
RM1.4 1.5K sub + amp
i'll go with the kicker CVR around RM650-700 and you still have around RM700 for amp. You can get the prokick DG800 around that price. The CVR can play low freq. with decent SPL (so you called it SQL). It needs bigger encosure for that.

Or
You can look for 2nd hand Adire shiva around the same price. Good SQ sub for begginer. Or even the RE entry level sub. someone organised a group buy in gr8unes. Covert from sing $ to RM is less than RM400 maybe can get 2. Good sub my opinion is one of the best value for money sub.

ok thanks for suggestion.
Will try and ask see whether they got or not so can let me try.


And btw...should i spend more money on the sub or on the amp?
Or should it be equal budget?
