AKTHAR>?? who is that??

Anyways it was very nice to see your disco '82 and Viveks CCTB boxes. The 936e lost a little bottom end but the CCTB boxes are compact and save a lot of money. I think McLaren, you took a few pictures na? Maybe Navin can shed some light on CCTB boxes for the uninititiated.

Gurus,

need help

Planning for decent audio system for Alto:

I am planning to keep the budget to close to 10k, here's what i have planned:

Option 1

HU: Pioneer Mp3 player either P6750 or P5750
Speakers: Only Front ones preferably the 4" Pioneer ones
Will go for rear Speakers, Sub & amp when i have morre mollah :-)

Option 2
HU: Pioneer Mp3 player either P6750 or P5750
Speakers: Front ones preferably the 4" Pioneer ones Plus Rear 6X9 Pioneer with Tray
Will Go for Sub & Amp later

Will I be able to squeze in option 2 in close vicinity of 10k ??? Also if i go for option two, whenver i will do teh amp & sub i will have to change the wirings also.

otion one sounds tempting as no or very little wiring will be required as Alto has inbuilt wiring for front speakers.

Also I ahve heard that Alpine has better mp3 players. If yes then will it fit in my budget(option 1)

Please Suggest. Thanks

Sam Kapasi · 11th October 2005, 12:08

Ya Navin...

Do you have any personal experience with CCTB boxes for co-axial speakers? Vivek has had some decent success in his alto with them. What is the priniciple of these CCTB boxes?

mclaren1885 · 11th October 2005, 12:21

First of all, I am no guru, just helping you with what I know.

If I were you I would take option 1 but with better front speakers say 5 1/4" or 6 1/2" component speakers from a good brand after listening to them for around 4k. I think Pio 5750 will come in your budget for around 6k. Thats it a HU and 2 front speakers to start with. You can keep adding later when you want to.

Alto is a small car. Two good front speakers will more than suffice. Forget the rear speakers. I have a Palio and have only two speakers in them. Take a look.

Alpine are good but I dont know if they are available in your price range.

Btw, most speakers come with speaker cables so you dont have to worry about spending money on cables.

@5u3zEr0 : Thanks man, even I am looking for the option one only. Btw will the speakers mentioned by you fit into the Alto's speaker space ??

I am not sure about that but I think 5 1/4" speakers should. I guess you will have to wait for the guru's to re-confirm.

Alto original fitment is 4"
