Links to some good speakers.And yes,i'll add sub-woofer and amp later..
An amplifier is recommended if you are using component speakers. You can skip the subwoofer to be added later.

* 4Ch Amplifier- JBL GT-X646/ JBL GX A644SI. (5-7.5K)
* Front speakers-Polk Audio - 6.5" DB5251/DB6501 / Rockford R1675 component pair (5- 7.5K) on the front doors.
* Rear coaxial speakers- JBL 6.5" CX 62SI co-axial pair on rear doors (1-2K)
* Good quality Wiring kit. (1-2K)

The prices may vary from place to place. Still that will come around 12K minimum, if you are flexible go for it.
Or else go for front components speakers from JBL CS series. Use good quality wooden spacer rings for fixing the speakers on doors.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Isn't the rockford and jbl coaxial a little low price components..Will they do good enough? or it all depends on amplifier? If its clear then i pick as u suggested..

So far I decided these :

HU - Pioneer AVH - x2790BT
Amplifier - JBL GX A644SI (If this is really important then i go for it )

Prices yet to find at local decor shop. .

JBL X646 is also a good 4 channel amp. Check out the prices of both the amp models at your local shop.

The coaxials wont be connected to the amplifier, only the front components and subwoofer will. Yes, the above JBL coaxial speaker suggested is somewhat low priced.
If you have some stock speakers in rear leave it as it is and go for front components, HU and 4 channel amplifier for the time being. Better coaxials for rear and subwoofer can be added later. Please go through the threads in the quoted links in my previous posts, you will get a better idea.

Have a look at the Infinity Kappa series speakers, they are somewhat high priced but they are very superior in quality. I would suggest you to pay few casual visits to Accessories shops in your area and see different configurations.

My Car Doesn't come with any setup.Its swift VDI..

Where you got this Kicker speakers?. I was talking about the below quoted post.
You can skip the amp if you want to use some good quality coaxials, if you are using components, it is better to go with an amp.
Thats why I had suggested to use some low priced JBL coaxials for rear to fit your budget.[roll]

Sorry If I confused you!

hi Lameassonwheels

Here are the details from decor shops..

Pioneer AVH - X2790BT - 17300rs
Amp JBL GX A644SI - 7600rs
Polk Audio DB6501 - 10k

HU: JVC KW - v20BT - 20k (This was suggested by decor shop guy )
What the decor shop guy says is Online products doesn't come with warranty and risky so price may differ..

Another decor shop :
This Guy seems sony fan.Whatever you ask,he says sony is best
Details :

HU : Sony 602BT 20k , Sony 612BT - 22k
front speakers : Sony N16202C - 4800rs
Rear speakers : some sony 420w - 2900rs
These speakers will do good and also he said no need Amp without sub woofer..

IMO prices seems ok except for Polk speakers!. The JVC HU is also good (3 pre-outs etc), but people generally prefer Pioneer for better SQ. Ask for the prices of these setup in some other shops too. Check the price of Rockford R1675 speakers also. Any options shortlisted for coaxial speakers for rear?

Edit: Checked the price for DB6501 here in pune by calling up a decor guy where I usually go for such work, he told around 8K selling price (He was out of shop, and he told the MRP is 11K). I asked him like I want to replace my JBL components, so he suggested Pioneer TS pioneer 1675v2, Pioneer 17206 (I couldn't find it online), Rockford, focal auditor series in similar range and costly option of infinity Kappa for even better performance.

:agree:. The online sellers usually provide seller's warranty not manufacturer's !

The JBL coaxial u suggested was 2300rs,he said..And Infinity kappa 62.11i is 7600rs..

Prices on snapdeal are almost 2k lesser than the local decor shop..:\
Now i'm so confused what to get..


Ask for the prices of these setup in some other shops too
Only 3 shops are near to me..Mentioned 2 shop quotes already..3rd shop don't have neither polk nor infinty....He only have Jbl and Sony..And for HU,he got 4 and 5 series pioneer and obviously sony...

I still don't understand the prices thing...Pioneer 2790bt and 5 series are almost same features but have lot of price difference...

And what about this Amp thing..Is that decor shop guy said is true?

Then leave Polk and go for Infinity KAPPA 60.11 6-1/2″, two-way, component speaker system for front [clap].
Make sure its genuine. For rear choose that 2.3K JBL coaxial if you are ok with it (Look for some Pioneer coaxials too as your HU is Pioneer, and these coaxials will be getting connected to HU only not amp).

I still don't understand the prices thing...Pioneer 2790bt and 5 series are almost same features but have lot of price difference...
I think by 5 series you mean models like 5790BT etc. They are comparatively new models and have a larger screen (17.8cm) and less off-screen area, i.e better aesthetics!. 2 series have space consuming navigation buttons on the left side of the screen.

Also check the 2790BT have the wireless remote control with it in the box, if you think remote is a must have. because the spec says "Wired remote control" (I think even the JVC HU have only "remote ready").

And what about this Amp thing..Is that decor shop guy said is true?
If it is coaxials for all speakers no need of an amp. Component speakers and subwoofers are there in the setup then amplifier is recommended to get the best out of them. Suggested a 4 channel amp for you because you can use 2 channels for the front component speakers now and keep the other two for the subwoofer, which shall be added later.

Well,I think i should get a component speakers at front and coaxial at rear.As many are going same combo.But the polk audio is too pricey locally..
Any other suggestion for Component speakers ? And also mention few good Sub woofer also,if budget permits i'll get one :p

Also check the 2790BT have the wireless remote control with it in the box, if you think remote is a must have. because the spec says "Wired remote control" (I think even the JVC HU have only "remote ready").
Even though 2790bt is old but it has all features that the latest HU have and it also supports mkv and mp4, Apple and android,mirror link and rest features yet to learn[:D]

Wired or wireless remote is not a concern,as we can easily access the touch screen..

List as of now :
Pioneer AVH - X2790BT or similar one or probably low price one.
Jbl coaxial for rear
Amp

And also, He said good quality wire priced at 1650 and Branded rear cam for 1450rs

And for GPS i'll go with Garmin later as they provide free updates.Local price is 10k
MMI is 6k

Regarding front components please check my last post (Also quoted below) as you said Infinity Kappa is available at 7.6K with your local decor.

JBL CS1215B (includes the enclosure) is a good subwoofer for a normal user, with a gentle bass (not too much doof doof), it will cost around 5K. Find an user review and pics of it in our forum here. Needless to say it will eat up some space in your boot. If you need more bass go for brands like kicker.

Have you finalized which amp to go for?. JBL GX A644SI/ JBL GT X646 or some other models?

Please go through this guide before zeroing on the rearview cam. Unfortunately there are no much reputed brands for reverse cam in our country. Xenos, MapmyIndia, Worldtech etc are the popular brands seen in market here.

Infinity kappa 62.11i is a coaxial at 7600rs..The one you mentioned is at 9k online.Probably i get 15k locally..The Local shop telling price based on MRP with 15-20% discount..So 60.11 have 18k MRP quote.

My bad!I didn't catch the numbers right. I thought you said 60.11 CS.

Checkout JBL GTO 649C, GTO 609C and Hertz Audio DSK 165.3 for front components. If at all you felt like extending the budget, look back to Polk components [:D].
Audition the options the decor shop guy is having and select the one that sound pleasant to your ears.
Happy ICEing![clap]
