Easy. Find a friend who has a setup, plonk in a favorite CD and if you find yourself tapping your feet and listening to the whole song and you find yourself wishing you had that setup, then that's what you want in your system!well i've been interested in ICE for a long time, but have never invested in more than Headunits.
how should one specify what he wants in a sound system?
One of the best in terms of what exactly? They produce some pretty nifty HUs but one mans meat is another mans poison.I heard Nakamichi is one of d best?
i wouldnt consider focal as THE brand for SQ, but yes its one of the more popular ones, especially for 2nd stage beginner, or novice, goin thru their 2nd round upgrade... other brands to look at would be morel, DLS, helix, eton, boston, dynaudio, peerless, rainbow, RS Audio, etc etc many more...For SQ lovers probably FOCAL range is recommended, or even BOSE if money is not an issue. There's another brand in town - Cadence, quite like their design, but specs not too sure, not many ppl comment on this brand. I am probably looking for JBL in the future, but need to study their spec and sound 1st
My case in point.i wouldnt consider focal as THE brand for SQ, but yes its one of the more popular ones, especially for 2nd stage beginner, or novice, goin thru their 2nd round upgrade... other brands to look at would be morel, DLS, helix, eton, boston, dynaudio, peerless, rainbow, RS Audio, etc etc many more...
id stay away from bose, not for car and definitely not for home, theyre just a look good brand, not for sound good. if u like home hi fi sound, like many SQ fans, then they will try to find vifa or scanspeak speakers and use it in their car, even morel, dynaudio and focal have developed car speakers based on the home ones, just to cater to this market segment...
love bose !My case in point.
One mans meat is another mans poison.
I personally find those Bose car systems pretty nice. But I agree on Zenn's opinion on the Focals.
