audio set-up for beginners [continued]

[ninjababez]

may negative effect po ba sa amp or speaker kapag ganun setup magkaiba ohms .... salamat

Nope normal speaker characteristic yan. Wag lang sobra underpowered yung speaker for a long time. Kung normal listening level, walang problem in most cases.

There's nothing wrong with a speaker being underpowered. What's dangerous is when you do the opposite -- overpowering (aka turning the volume knob as if you're trying for 180dB) as it leads to mechanical failures (ex. burnt coils, etc.)

What's dangerous is an uninformed person having a low-wattage amplifier. More often than not, he's turning the volume all the way up and then damaging the poor speaker in the process.

Can someone tell me what the differences are between the pioneer 8850bt vs the 8750bt? What exactly has changed? New features? Resolution? Speed? Can it play mkv? Support for hard disk?

Thanks! I might (once again) get an android china unit. Not so much of an audiophile. Though I do appreciate good sound (bought a devialet for the home).

I've been wanting to order car audio items from abroad through online shopping but always had a second thought. Is it safe? Is it door to door delivery? Will there be additional charge for custom duty? Need your help.

Its door to door but customs will always charge taxes. Best is NOT to undervalue it. DHL just informed me that the tax is 1,720 pesos. Not bad for a almost $400 item.

I've done this before. Aliexpress (which is owned by alibaba.com) is very safe with 100% money back guarantee. This is the king of ecommerce.

Thanks a lot. So it's the courier who relays the tax and
not Aliexpress. When is the tax known? Is it before the start of shipment or upon arrival of item?

When the items clear customs that is when the amount is known. When you're tracking your parcel in DHL you can specify sms and email alerts when certain milestones are reached. In my case I ticked customs clearance and final delivery. I got the alert called up their hotline and got the exact amount. I readied it for their courier. Received my item yesterday (it looks fantastic and I might get another one) and will have it installed in the weekend.

Installed na in my carnival.

It's a 10" screen connected to the 2 DIN unit by a ribbon connector and some clamps. It has offline maps. Nokia, IGO, etc. also has waze.











Above is with an offline map.

But it has everything an android based phone can have. It has online maps as well as Spotify , etc.

Sound is excellent.

Am super happy with it.

Its accurate. But I don't really use it. I just tried it out.

I use waze. Or for the best offline maps, I use Nokia Here.
