My Requirement :
An awesome quality System to listen to all kinds of music.
i have decided to go with Front Components and rear COAX
With an Amp to power them all . and a single din good HU that my budget can suffice
My budget stands till 20K at max .. ( I know its low for such requirements , but i think my requirements should fit in )

1. HU: Pioneer 3490 .

2. Rear speakers: JBL GTO 949 400 W 3-way 6x9 OR Infinity REF9633i300W
3-Way 6" X 9" Coaxial Speaker

3. Front components: JBL GTO-609C ( Please Suggest Which is better or any other that is better than the both )

4. SUB: I dont need Subs . i am looking for decent bass which speakers provide me enuff

5. Amp: JBL GT5-S644 (800watt 4 Ch) [for powering all the speakers]


I Am looking for good SQ . and lil bass . Kindly assist me with the this . and also let me know your suggestions .

Hi Jatin,

Your Pioneer HU will do. Its a nice HU.
JBL GTO 0949 or Infinity Ref 690. Infinity will cost you around 5.5 and 949 is 4K.
Components JBL will do good. Just ensure that they are powered by an amp.
Amp i think a JBL 4 channel would suffice your needs. In order to get bass you will have to place your 6X9 into a box. you will get decent bass then.
Wiring will cost you between 1-2K .

Let me know in case of any questions.

Re: Plz Suggest me to ICE MY Swift VDI

I cant Use A Box For Read Co-Ax as they would utilize Swift's Low Boot Space .

AS i travel a lot with my family. a Boot is necessary i can't Adjust the boot for The Rear Speakers. I have only 1 Option and that is Tray b'coz of the Oval Size i cant opt the Rear doors too !

Amp I have 2 options
1. Amp: JBL GT5-S644
2. the latest JBL GT-X646

Rear Speakers I would go for Infinity but i suppose
the latest Infinity REF9633i are also an option

Which is a better option for amp and Rear CO-AX ?
Kindly suggest

Re: Plz Suggest me to ICE MY Swift VDI

for Coax go with Infinty Ref9633i and for amp go for x646. Whats the price quoted for the amp.

Also, ensure that you get good wiring kit installed to your system. its vital to the output of the system. you can choose from Kicker, JBL, Scoche or Stinger. Stinger is most expensive and i have it in my car. Scoche costs around 1.5 and JBL and Kicker around 800 to 1.5K.

Re: Plz Suggest me to ICE MY Swift VDI

hey jatin tell whats the quote for x646 i will bargain that way then

 

[jatin ahuja]

Re: Plz Suggest me to ICE MY Swift VDI

I will have to visit the Dealer Again for the quotation of Co-Ax and Amp ,
For the wiring i will go with Jbl or else Scoche . whichever suits my pocket at the time of installation .

Do you also have the Idea about RF Speakers are they good?


As in are they better than JBL and if yes are they worth the price ?

Sub With box : JBL CS1215T 4350
wiring Kit : 1500
Tray : 450
HU Socket : 150
Labor : 1000
Damping : 500

it all Adds upto : 30250

it 10K more to my budget. Please suggest what to do

 

[diehardi20]

i would suggest you to drop the sub from the list for now. however this should be your setup for nwo

Pioneer HU 5800
JBL Components:- 4500 you can opt for coaxials for 2000
Rear infinity : 6000
Amp JBL 646 : 6000
wiring kit : 1500
tray 450
HU coupler 150
labour 1000 is too much . Try bargaining
Damping 500

Mine is a 2011 Hyundai i20 Crdi and the whole system is stock apart from the fact that i got a infinity refrence enclosure installed with Stinger Audio wiring and a moderator.
