Hallo...

I already have the component in my car... so my planning to upgrade my ICE...

Basic setup... as i'm a newbie in ICE... the stuff also 'ayam' brand only... hehehe

so far i have... not install yet...

2 10" Sub
2 2ch Amps (1 for comp & 1 for a pair of sub)
1 pre-amp
10 RCA cable

So what do I need now... power cable, ground cable etc...

Cost for the installation... labour charge etc...
 
Some MDF perhaps if u were to mount the amp at the back and not under the seats. Enclosure for your 2 X 10" if you not yet have them.
 
yes, u definitely need fuse box, distribution block, since u are having more than one amp.
u also need power cable, and speaker cables. but that normally will be provided during installation.labour charge can be ranging from RM100 to RM200 depends on the wiring length, and the workmanship.

Dude, I hope you bought the amps and everything by considering whether they can match your speakers and all! Btw, I saw your other post, both amps are not enuff for the sub to get some decent bass la. Depending on whether your eclipse comp set can handle it or not, put one amp for the tweeters, one amp for the mids and get a monoblock for your subs :D

THEN and only THEN do you need a distribution box. Hehehe.. fuse box? Course you need one of those.

If you search around the whole forum, you'll see lots of recommendations on where to go for installation. If you're in KL, I recommend CV Audio in Uptown PJ. I went there to get my ICE setup and they did a very professional job with mine, RM200++ only including wiring and installation.
 
oren,
if you're looking to save up on installation, I have a fuse box (holder) and some speaker wires for sale. PM me if you're interested :)
 
You may or may not need the pre-amp... try not to use it.

Power cables to the distriblock -> amps will be a good start

Also, ur eclipse speakers r the white cone ones or the black cone ones? White cone ones (blue basket) are ok and dont need lots of power to run.
 
Tq so much guys for helping me out... hehe... gush...

it's very difficult than i imagine... but at least i learn something...
 
u learn more when u DIY install all the stuff...
and u find the pleasure also...
and when everything fixed up with no error at all..
u even feel proud of urself...
ehehehe...
 
Just pray you lose hair only and not $$$ when you fry an amp or blow a sub. :D
