Hi all,
I recently purchased i10 sportz which has OEM head unit. The output of the OEM head unit is not so good (Speakers could not handle bass). I want to upgrade the speakers for the OEM HU. However I do not want to change OEM HU.
Budget: 20K

I want to know following:
1. Can I add components in the front doors and co axial in the rear door? I am looking for Illusion (EL 6.1 and EL62) or JBL (GT6-S266C and GT6 - 366).
2. Do I have to add amplifier for above setup?
3. Is it possible to add amplifier to OEM HU? If yes which one 2ch or 4ch?
4. Also I need to damp all the four doors and boot.

Please suggest me good installer for above upgrade in Pune.

I am also ready to get it done in Mumbai. I have heard lot about Bass n Treble located in Mumbai.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Sachin Gosavi

Yeah! you can add an amplifier to the OEM headunit. but you cannot experience the full potential of the amplifier unless you buy a aftermaket headunit.

for the OEM headunit you can add a component speaker and a rear coaxial.


MTX speakers can be driven with the OEM head unit. Total upgrade will cost you around 10K.


Dampen the 4 doors for increased sound quality and noise rejection also. use Dynamat for dampening or Noise Kill..

Dampening the car also reduces the outside road noise and also make your ride a cool one.

Thanks for the reply.

Frankly speaking i never heard of MTX speakers. I have been listening to JBLs in mu uncles swift for last 2 years and they sound amazing.

Also listened to illusion electra 6.1 in my friends car and they are good as well.

Where can I get MTX speakers demo in Pune?

Also regarding damping, where can I get it done in Pune/Mumbai?

Thanks,

I have upgraded rear speakers as JBL GTO 948 Limited edition at Poona motors. The sound quality is really good and I am happy with that.

Next upgrade will be as follows:
Component speakers (Illusion EL 6.1 or JBL GTO 608C).
Damping.
4 Ch amplifier(Still have a long time to decide but need the same with speaker level input).

How is the setup? n how much it costed, exclude dampening

Excellent;
This is a car that is driven by my better half & it sounds better than my VW - to my ears at least....
Cost, I do not know...truly;

Damping is the most important part of any car audio install.
Without damping car audio should not be installed.

:sad:
 
I got JBL 608 C as Fronts and Boston Acoustics 300Watts as Rear, Didi'nt liked JBL GTO 948 i demoed with pioneer head unit.

If you listed to Moderate Audio levels no need to add amp but please go for a after market HU. kenwood and Pioneer go well with JBL speakers but avoid JVC for JBL Speakers otherwise tehy are good.

my cost.

JBL 608-c 3900/-
BA 300 Watt( Dont remember model number) - 4000/-
Pioneer 2390 HU - 4000/-
Pioneer Steering control - 1000/-

No dampening yet
