i have a set of ICE in my car that cost less than RM1k
and a 5.1 THX set of logitech speaker for PC which cost about RM750
to tell the truth, the logitech won't sound anything better than the car speaker
and it won't sound any better inside the car either.
cost pc speaker is meant for pc.
car speaker is meant for car.
sure PC speaker is CHEAP.
it sound great for your PC, but it will sound cheap in your car. cuz different source and such. you cannot expect that the CD player in the car will output the same sound as the PC sound card.
its not even worth the money to buy the AC/DC converter to connect the car battery to the speaker. the AC/dc converter probably cost more than your altec speaker. And your altec speaker WON'T last in your car. unless u dun park your car under the sun and you have V-COOL premium tint around your car.
but then, wat's the point? getting all the expensive stuff to just to make the cheap speaker work nicely in the car, why not just spend all the money on a decent car speaker setup. I can bet with u even those cheap audio stuff less than RM1k full set one, got 2 set component, got one 12" subwoofer and one amp, the sound also more powerful that the cheap altec.
