I put some effort in manually adjusting the EQ to my liking, and I think I got a pretty impressive result. It sounds phenomenal to my ears. What an upgrade. I don't even think a mic will do any better than this. However, for a few songs, I feel like the subwoofer is 'taking over' the speakers...

YEah, it has an RTA interface. It also allows me to use automatic EQ with mic connected. I asusme my laptop mic is **** and won't give any accurate readings. I will buy the Dayton mic asap.

There is AutoEQ that I can try with the Dayton mic. The question is where do I put my laptop while measuring? On the driver seat? For time alignment I used distance from the speakers, should be good?

Okayyy so I got everything installed! I think they used CCA cables sadly (Except the cable that goes from the HU to the DSP which was 18GA OFC), I tried sourcing OFC cables from other shops but most of them carry CCA. To compensate on this I told them to use larger gauge (14GA instead of 16GA)...

The shop charges $500 for the installation regardless of mount location, lol. That includes OFC cables, fuses, basically everything needed for the installation + labor and 4 doors sound deadening (stp brand, very popular here). I asked them to place the amps in a tricky place, not exactly...

Quick update: I ordered today the Morel Hybrids 602 along with Tempo Ultra Integra MK2 for rear fill and the Helix Mini MK2 DSP. I picked up the new sealed sub 12" enclosure with some polyfill, internal volume is roughly 1.07cubic feet - Hertz recommend 1.03cubic feet. I added 8oz of polyfill...

Fair. I will get one of those DSPs. The Daytone + Mic is roughly 900NIS ($250). The Helix Mini MK2 - about 1800NIS ($500) - But that one includes "professional" installation by the authorized reseller rep. The reviews on the Daytone on Amazon are not that good (4.2 stars). Do you think I'll be...

Thanks a lot for the detailed answer! I just spoke with one of the biggest names here in Israel when it comes to car audio. They said my budget is pretty tight to fit a DSP, and they suggested to buy some hi-level converter (Just like the other shop), such as AudioControl LC2i Pro. They also...

I can't replace the Headunit, it's the whole 30inch~ screen with the speedometer connected to it (1 long screen) and the original headunit also controls all the safety systems in the car ... I was actually told by the local shop that if I buy Helix DSP or Helix amp with DSP built in from them -...

This model is unavailable here, I will have to find something else. https://www.alexsander.co.il/cat/40 Check this out and lmk what's good up to 600-800NIS (Less is better, I think I will spend most of my budget on components). I just spoke with a shop now and they suggested me to spend my...

The Hybrids and Elate Carbon are super expensive here too haha ... Just checked the price in the US, they are still 60% cheaper here. I think I'll bite the bullet and go with the Morels, it says on their website that they can even work well on stock headunit, should I give it a try before going...

LOL. Don't worry about it, I have enough relatives in the US to have it shipped within the USA in case I want to buy it :D I wouldn't open a thread here if I could not buy stuff from the US and import it :) The NVX is a Sonic Electronics brand so only available in the US it seems. Morel does...

Fair enough. Now I am even more confused :D The Hertz components cost roughly $400 in my country (brand new). Which coax rear speakers should go with them? And another question - Someone told me the 12.3" multimedia screen in the Kia is "basic and simple" and won't provide "high quality" signal...

Thanks! I will definitely consider your offer. For context, he had in his previous car Hertz MPK165P.3 Pro (which he REALLY liked!) installed along with an Hertz HX300D subwoofer in a huge ported box - How would the NVX/Pioneer compare to the Hertz component when it comes to sound signature...

Thanks! The NVX VSP does look promising considering the "cheap" combo price. Do you think the Pioneer combo justify the additional $120? or the NVX is as good? For the subwoofer I think we prefer a smaller box that will not take so much space. Such as this one - Pioneer TS-WX306B - Is it any...
