Need advice on upgrading sound (bass) quality pls - Vigo d/c

Post by Warrior »

Ek wil graag n Subwoofer erens agter die sitplekke insit maar dit lyk of spasie te min is vir n gewone 10 of 12duim sub.
Gesien daars hierdie plug&play units te koop - sub met sy amp in n plat box maar weet nie of daai goed werk nie.
Enige iemand al n Dubbel Cab Vigo se Bass opgepomp ? :razz:

Daar is net genoeg plek agter die agter seat om 'n flat sub en 'n boks en twee amps in te kry. Regte sub, gee genoeg bass in die kajuit. Sal later kyk of ek 'n foto kan laai.

Het 'n slimline sub and amp agter my seat. Al probleem is dat ek nie meer die luuksheid het om my onderste sitplek op te flip nie. Kan so halfpad op en dan haak dit vas teen my speelgoed. Spasie is egter genoeg om jack en gereedskap uit te kry in geval van nood.

Dit is egter die enigste manier wat jy bietjie dieper klank aan jou sound gaan gee. Oorweeg ook om tweeters te installeer aangesien die voorste speakers effe laag is en mens baie klank verloor omrede dit net eenvoudig te laag is. My tweeters is geinstalleer op die swart driehoekie op die voorste deel van die venster. Maak 'n groot verskil in klank. Luister nie meer so hard musiek nie, maar Saterdag oppad terug van Heidelberg het daai amp weer sy geld verdien .....

Dankie aan almal se raad.
Ek het toe by Autostyle (JHB) n Audiobank amp&sub combo bestel @ R1300
Moet se die naam klink na cheap *a* maar ons sal maar sien.

Vandag is die outjie afgelewer en ek moet se hy weeg nogal n hele paar kilos en lyk nie te bad nie.
Sal installeer en terugvoering lewer. Dalk nog een kry vir daai ekstra oemf :twisted:

As dit n swak kopie was sal ek die ding op een of ander Jeep of LandRover forum adverteer en iets anders probeer :mrgreen:

Very catchy song, nice beat to it too. First hears it at Francinah's house, can see Rihana and CupCake dancing and singing to it already.

X cab kan julle lekker kook.

Ek het die stelsel in my Fortuner gehad, en dit uitgehaal toe ek verkoop het.

Het vanoggend vroeg begin en die outjie ingesit.

Dit sluit die voorste speakers in met tweeters, Split system met crossover boksies, plus agterste speakers ook vervang.
Rockford sub ingesit met n ma se amp. Al die speakers plus sub word ge-power deur die amp.

Daar is twee dinge wat die stelsel nou doen, en dis al wat tel.

1. Hy speel kristal helder, en die speakers pop jou ore nog voor hulle begin distort.
2. Die bass agter slaan jou kop teen die stuurwiel vas, so jy ry hooter en druk heeltyd sonder dat jy kan help mwaahhah

Vir my gaan klank nie oor net HARD nie, dit moet bitter duidelik wees, en dan HARD.

En ek het eintlik dit ingesit ook sodat daar nie agter plek is vir die familie nie hehehehehehe
