AUDISON APK 165 4K

[@xumot]

I thought about these, but had to buy Focal ISU 165 instead. With only 55mm of mounting depth I didn't find a better choice in that price range. Also these speakers will be playing from head unit, so high sensitivity was priority. And filters - I don't want any invasion into original wire harness of the car, so big and bulky filters was a no-go.

Both Hertz and Audison decided not to use dust caps. Hetz Uno K165: "V-Cone, better dispersion, blah blah blah". I bought them for the sake of experiment (mainly because they're cheap, paper and efficient). Tweeters suck (plastic dome, every time there's a drum plate I want to turn off the radio), woofers suck (no bass, mid is OK but the V-Cone's "awesome dispersion" hurts my ears A LOT). I was thinking Audison might do better. Once I went to a car audio shop and the guy told me "buy Steg SQ650C". And here the same. I'm going for it. Thanks for good advice!

[@frednsound]

mosiowaty hi, couldn’t agree more, this is what I explain to all, advertisers will do their best to sell, no matter people will pay for nothing, this is why I’m here to make a difference, and don’t care for any brand beside the truth for pure sound quality, thanks for watching

[@mosiowaty1573]

@@frednsound thanks, much appreciated! I have a feeling that the world is going backwards. Back in the 80's in Poland we used to have only one choice of speakers. But they were amazing. Now we can get anything we want, but it takes ages to find something decent

Hej, czyli ostatecznie polecasz tego Audisona czy niebardzo ? :) Możesz ewentualnie coś dopisać jako zestawy na podobnym poziomie, o których masz dobre zdanie. Pzdr.

[@mosiowaty1573]

@@zastrzezony80 Odpowiem po angielsku co by inni też skorzystali. 5 years later, I went a long way and now I'm using Steg MT650C in passive. They are very, very good for the price - the cheapest set I would ever consider for any car. The problems I described here, with mids hurting my ears and lack of bass, came from cabin gain (mids) and poor install (bass). If you want to have great sound quality in vocal range, you need to put anything above 200-250Hz on the dash and tune it with a DSP. If you want good bass, you need to mount the speaker very rigid and seal the door completely. If you want your bass rattle-free, you need to build sealed enclosures for the woofers, to suppress the back wave, which wreaks havoc in the door, making window mechanisms buzz (and you can't do anything about this) and making all the plastic rattle. The amount of labour required for good sound quality in a car is enormous. Check out Peter from Pssound.
