Hmm...been thinking lately about what i fancy to go with my Pioneers HU and CD changer!

Jonnaz is gettin all this Audiobahn stuff ££££££ which is ok for his wallet but not mine...

At the mo im looking at a few things...

I would like some opinions and feedback?
Remember though that money aint in surplus and the YELLOW cones on the Pioneer gear is really essential!!! :wink:

And ive had a test of the VIBE sub thru an Audiobahn amp - which was class!

Sub and Amp

VIBE Space 12" sub

VIBE Monoblock amp

And for the rear shelf...

Pioneer 20cm 3-ways in YELLOW!

And for the front...either components or 3-ways

Pioneer 17cm 3-ways

Pioneer 17cm components

To begin with only the sub will have an amp but later the others will be using an decent amp!


What do yous think..in your 'professional' opinion?

Thanks!

[-X Vibe not good! vibe not good!

Always be wary of something a halfrauds guy recommends!

For same cash go for a/d/s see www.caraudiodirect.com then go to subs etc!

Will sound nice!

 

[Gold Rover]

vibe stuff very good imo !! m8 has built a R25 td as a vibe show car and it sounds class

be very careful of halfords and motorworld and them sort they aint very clued up on what they are talkin about ! check out http://www.mcs-direct.co.uk/acatalog/index.html get my stuff from there and usually alot cheaper ! saved £500 on my TV and tv tuner \/

 

[ZRVic]

i got a vibe sub and amp and i love it!! kicks ass!! :grin:

 

[Big Slick]

Ive never been to halfrauds or motor world....im not that fuckin stupid.....howay ppl!!!...give GIL some credit.....

What ive heard and read....is that the NEW 'E-Motion' Pioneer stuff is really good quality but affordable...plus being yellow!!! and that VIBE subs and amps arent TOO expensive but very nice quality and bass!!!

......tch...Halfords...like i would....i wouldnd even go there for an air freshner!!!

p.s. Bloody took some time to get some replies to this thread......jesus!!! :-^


Anything else that might help....other than who NOT to goto...even though i already know!......its the actual gear i would like opinions of...just to back up what i think...at present.....and what other ppl who may have this gear....and have first had experience of....like Vic!



Cheers.....now get postin! :grin:

 

[ZRVic]

Mines only the 10"sub with combined amp but its great!! Had someone at Southend(1st meet-can't remember who) compare it to their 2 12"'s(can't remember what make, sorry) and say mine was far better, AND louder!!

 

[-=SaM=-]

Vibe is ok but the kind of money you are gonna spend, you could get something alot better. Just have a look around first. Vibe is more entry level audio equipment

 

[Big Slick]

So what would you recomend...in terms of 'better for the money'?

keep in mind that im only gonna pay about £300 for the enclosed 12" VIBE 'Space' sub and about £350 for the Mono amp!!!

Ive been lookin around but i wanna stay away from the likes of Pioneer/Kenwood/Alpine/Sony subs and amps...

I want something a bit different...stylish....and IMO...the brushed metal VIBE mono 4 amp looks well smart...and powerful aparently!

 

[aftaab001]

get a resonant engineering sub and this amp

[Big Slick]

This is more like it.....cheers!

Ill have a proper look and do some research on these bad boys...

That sub aint very 'sexy' though.....hmm!

 

[aftaab001]

sub ain't very sexy, but my friend this is ONE HELL OF A SUB FOR THE MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this one sub can outdo 8 average 12" subs!

RE Stuff =P~

Amazing for the money

Gil if you are looking to spend £650 on just sub and amp you can do a lot better than vibe!

How about a nice Diamond audio CM3 for about £180 and a mono genesis amp for £400 leaves you a nice bit of cash for a good box!

My sub was £250 but I am using it for SQ so only have a wee 350 rms going into it (It can handle 600!!)

 

[Big Slick]

Hmm...i see.

I got your PM and checked out the Genesis mono amp....cheers!

Still undecided.....but to be honest....its still lookin good for the VIBE sub and amp.....

Ive been reading about the VIBE Monoblock 4 and for the money (about £350-£400) its one hell of an amp.....very powerful and good quality for the money!....plus i think it looks class....

Still savin so it'll be a few months before a decide!
