Topic: Need help on component set recommendation

[lsj_87]

i have a genesis profile 4 amp. Is there any recommendation component speaker for SQ so that can pair with this amp ? i planning to run as passive the another space 2 channel to power a sub later on. currently i have a alpine 9887 headunit.  need some advice from sifus..

whats your budget and what music do u listen to....?

[kevyeoh]

hehe.... no money no tok...
true true...bajet comes first...

[andoropoi]

Yeah...better save as long as it take than buying and having ur system half baked....in term of ICE its a real waste of money....

[lsj_87]

my budjet is below 2k for component set. any recommendation to pair with genesis profile 4 ? normally i listen to normal song(like jay chou and etc), and sometimes R&B and Trance music.

Focal K2P or Pioneer PRS. Both sets have strong mid bass but some may claimed them having bright tweeters. I believe all boils down to tuning. Anyway, it will be better that u get an audit whether it suits your taste.

oh .. thx for recommendation ..  but does my amp is enough to power the focal k2p ? wat is the market price for focal k2p now ?

[ckmoy007]

K2P is roughly rm1.8k if i'm not mistaken. maybe u can check out the Boston Acoustics SL60 dat i'm selling bro.

[lsj_87]

oh thx bro. i think is i'm confuse that my amp is really enough to power the component set?
here is my amp spec

Genesis Profile 4
Power Output:
* 4 x 70w (2ohm)
* 4 x 50w (4ohm)

Focal K2P spec
Power Handling:
* Peak: 400 watts per set / 200 watts each side
* RMS: 200 watts per set / 100 watts each side
* 4 Ohm


can someone explain to me pls ..  will it be underpower ? thx

[ckmoy007]

well, 50W rms will make the k2p sing but dun expect much from the midbass section. no interest in my Boston? 80W rms onli needed. much cheaper than the k2p...

Shouldn't be much an issue. Try to power them through active set up or bridge your amp for passive set up. Dampen your doors properly. The K2P will still sing. The bass could be tuned to your preference from the HU. The Pioneer PRS requires much lesser power than the K2P. In fact, its mid bass is stronger and rounder, but less impact than the K2P. By the way, what's your budget for the speakers??? As all should agree, you get for what u pay.

hehe .. thx for help from everyone .. i just bought a focal K2P KRX2 ..  i have one more question .. can i put my amp to run 2 channel as 2 ohm = 70W and another 2 channel bridge 4ohm = 140w ?

[krayden]

Bridge 4ohm or bi-amp. Bi-amp means one ch per speaker (2 for tweets 2 for mids).

[Zenn]

should have gone for a lower rms speaker la, this genesis profile really no power one. 

u can only run the amp 2 x 50W for front and 140W x 1 bridge mono for sub

Better next time get a monoblock. What can you do with 140W? 9" sub?
