    Fiber-optic ? Let me make a guess ? BMW or Benz ?
    Last time my 2001 E200ML also running fiber-optic , but i manage to get my installer remove everything and change my whole setup !Hehe...
    Some prefer home audio some car audio , but i must admit , for the same amount of money spent in car and home , home audio wins !
    Too bad , don't really have time to enjoy music at home !

      sinfoni

      Sure bro, got chance can meet up for kopi.
      Bro, IMHO, the sinfoni amps is just too overprice ! Sound quality ok , but i won't pay that kind of $ for their low to mid end amp, I've audit their top of the range amp , call the Desirado or something like that match with Micro P Z series limited , the sound is indeed nice ! But 1 piece of that 2 channel amp set you back around 22k , you need 4 amps to run full active
      For that amount of $ spent , i suggest you look at other option !
      Luxman is 1 very warm and sweet amp ,price range still acceptable !
      The above is just my personal opinion !

        My ride is Volvo. I did checked out several installers and most of them (except one) don't even dare to touch. While that one say can... but may lose electronic control of some car functions because everything is integrated.

        And also got some horror stories that playing around with electronics caused the car to freeze, etc. So I rather not munck around with a black box.

        But ok lah... the stock system is already quite ok.

                Thought to start a thread to share our music preference.

                I especially take interest in local artist and currently trying hard to find Olivia Ong's CD.. Never knew off her before but the show LITTLE NYONYA's theme song really brought out the beauty of her voice to a first time listener to her...

                I am already a fan..

                Anybody knows which album is the song 如燕 found? I hear she has 3 albums and am dying to get all three.. Anybody have news where its available, do let me know.. I've tried Borders and Sembawang to no avail..

                Cheers...
                i saw a few olivia ong's cd at "that cd shop" at pacific plaza.

                    Em... F1 produce a more analoge sound , vocals seems more powerful !
                    Display not as nice as the ODR ,
                    ODR , clarity is better , can hear more detail from instrument .
                    Display is one of the nicest around !

                    Both are flagship HU from 2 electronic giants , both have their + point , That's the reason why , i still keep the F1 with me .

                        Thanks for the info bro.... was recommended the sinfoni class A but after considering decided to hold back cos it going to involve another 10+k for the 4 amps and I still prefer to get watches first. Heehee

                          Wah cheem...

                          Bros.. I suggest why not we have two write up and details to share your experience on Home Audio set up and Car Audio setup? What are the components and their purpose..?? SO for ppl like me who enjoy listening to music nia without the techcnical knowledge can also benefit?

                          Thinking the write up should be kept to this thread so as to not OVERLY disperse the crowd into too many threads...

                            I now driving the new S40. Every damn thing is integrated. Even the amp is not just an amp, HU controls are also inside. So after finding out all the potential 'risks' and warranty/servicing issues...I decided to leave the audio stock. I really don't want to wake up turning up my headlight switch and instead the wipers go off.

                            Actually... good also lah. cannot spend money...

                              Actually... its hard to compare between Car vs Home setup.

                              Nothing much beats having wind in your hair and Marilyn Manson screaming at you after a stressful day at work...

                                Bro, just to update you, Friday is NG for me... Need to 'clean' up the house by clearing the amount of unwanted junk at home before CNY.. typical hahaha Fortunately cleaning the house would be my FDW work..

                                Will arrange another time kae?


                                True, home and car audio setup are different, thats why I mentioned to have to write ups by those who are more inclined or proficient in it, so as to give a more insight to the setup of a particular audio system.
                                Just descriptive and the result of having a component versus what brand is used. For example :
                                Homesetup
                                - Pre-amp : What is it for... what are the difference in audio quality if this was in your setup than without.. what kind of price range to look at for low, med and high budget etc..

                                Duno if this makes sense but since there are a couple of audiophile here, thought it would be nice to share and educate on this topic despite we ARE in a watch forum..
