ICE for i10

Hello guys..

Need ur suggestion...

I am looking for an ICE in my Black Beauty [ i10 1.2 ]

So need ur guys help in making an good Combo...

Budget - 20K

Head Units - Alpine / Sony / Pioneer

Speakerz Front Components - JBL / Sony / Pioneer

Speakerz Rear Coax 6 X 9 - JBL / Sony / Pioneer

Woofer - Really dont want to spoil my boot :lol!:

So here are the brand guys... Plz do suggest me which one to go for with ur Combos...

Any ideas & suggestions are a big welcome from ZINAM :)

save aside 7000/- for the head unit, you will get a unit with USB port.
now for the speakers, you have 13,000/-

front component speakers: JBL GTO608 - 6" 210W - Rs. 6990/-
rear speakers: JBL GTO947 - 6x9 400W - Rs. 5990/- (its a limited edition, so rush!)

total: 19,980/- - installation extra!

but these will sound the best with an amplifier.
JBL GT5-A402 2 channel amp - 5490/-
JBL GT5-A604 4 channel amp - 8990/-

if you dont want to spoil your boot space, try getting subwoofers installed on the parcel tray.

:) Well, as Raj has already suggested everything...i would just like to add that its better to go for subs in rear!...don't go for amps!..they are just useless in small car!!.Happy motoring!enjoy :cheers:

Well you can save 2k if you go for a grey market Pioneer HU. For speakers, stick with JBL. The Pioneer HU and JBL speakers in my car creates good sound quality.

yes crazy cat!....but those grey market products doesn't comes with warranty!...so its ones own's risk!..incase if they have any defect in them! :suspect:

We had grey market HU for all our cars. We had not faced any problem till now. And in the shop where we are regular, they assured us they will help in case of any problems. But yeah it is wise to stick to originals with bill and warranty.

@ Raj Buddy!!

I agree to ur speaker suggestions... :agree:

But Can i get a best HU for this price tag??

Can u guys tell me which will be better Alpine or Pioneer.?

i can extend the cost upto 10K for HU. Can i get a 2DIN player??

If so wat model?? i am looking everthing with bill & Warranty!!

Hi Guys!!

Has anyone used Pioneer FH-P6050UB before?? Do u have any clues abt it??



Any idea how much is this model with B/W ??

This costs around 10k without bill.
Must be around 13-14 k with bill

I've heard its nice from others. No personal audition though

Have you decided on any setup uptil now?

No Abhi!! I haven't started my Setup till now.

Still waiting for a good audio setup :)

So when will you do ICEing work in your i10, zinam? :)

For fronts,use Rainbow 4 inch speakers.They're very good for midrange and upper frequencies.I'd suggest you give component speakers a good thinking.JBL is OK,but Rockford Fosgate is the bees knees..

But Rockford is costly too!

Lol...you get what you pay for,friend. :party:

Lemme help you with a choice

HU : Remove Sony from the list
Pioneer 6050 is good.
As you do not want a sub.
Go for the Double Din.
Costs around 10k

Front compos : Illusion 6.1 ( Amazing Compos , really value for money.)-7000. Lemme know if you need them( i'll tell you the contact person)
Rears - Since its a hatch, avoid this.
Cables + damping front doors ( for added pleasure) - 3000

Hi Abhi,

Your choice seems to suit my style!!

But why no to rear speakers??

And by the way do you know any contact person in chennai ?

I too want to know why you have not suggested for rear speakers?
and what do you mean by -

Rears - Since its a hatch, avoid this.

Doesn't the hatchbacks need rear speakers?


Road Rocket

Imagine this.
You are sitting in a theatre and watching a movie.
And the sound is coming from the back.

Would you turn to hear the sound from the front.

No!

If you only sit in the back seat and if others who sit in the car are not very good judgers of sound.
You would always like the sound only from the front.
The rears would disturb your sound stage.

I did not say it doesnt require but it can be avoided.

Hi Guys,

I still din't put any system to my beauty. Was Out of Station for long time.

Please pour your final suggestions .

My Requirement as Follows!

Head Unit - ALPINE / Pioneer ?? Model Please

Speakers - JBL / Polk ?? Model Please

Amplifier - JBL / ALPINE ?? Model Please

My Budget is 25K Max & cannot strech more.

I need more thump without woofers. So Please suggest me the Best Deal !

Thanks in Advance

HU + Speaker + Amplifier + wiring + damping is what you need.

HU - Pioneer 6050/5190 : 7k
There are no good Alpines in the basic range

Front Components - Illusion Electra 6.1 - 7k
Excellent components, i had them in my RS.
Excellent mid bass and you would not miss the thump

I'll suggest you to avoid the rears due to budget and imaging constraints. They can be added later as per will.


Amp - Blaupunkt GT4 MKII - 5.5k - A good VFM 4 channel amplifier. ( 2 channels for front , 2 channels for rear { you can later power the rears of the HU if you plan to add a sub} )

Wiring + Damping + Install - 5.5k

If you want i can give you the contact no. of person for the illusion electras

Hi Abhi,
Thanks a Lot for the reply.

Can you please give contact for the complete system?

I need it with Bill & Warranty.

But can you tell me any Double Din Head Units ?

I had a look at Pioneer FH 6050UB. Its good. But it has only 2 Pre-Outs! IS it enought to upgrade in future ?

And by the way Damping is neccesary ? I feel there is not much noise in my Cabin :)

But Why not ALPINE? IF ALPINE is really worth paying

I can wait & install a Thumping System! I'm in no hurry to install somthing. I need the best.
