If you happen to see the home or cinema sound system all surround speakers are at the back of the audience instead at the front just like you don't watch concert with your back facing the stage:regular_smile: Anyway, with a higher power rating speaker than the power of your HU will not cause your speakers to crack instead they go into clipping when you turn the HU volume to max. because the power from the HU has gone into max but still not able to generate enough input to support the power required by the speakers. Just like you red line your engine hoping the car can go faster. The car will not go any faster instead you blow up the engine. For RM500 you probably can get a set of Sony, Kenwood or JVC component speakers. My brother just bought a set of Sony component speakers at RM450. (Tweeter, mid-bass & very basic crossover) The result is quite OK as I pass him my old amp and the bass is punchy. I can't remember the model. Full-fledged component speakers can be a region of RM600 & above (reputable brands). Cap ayam speakers are much cheaper and is within your budget. However, the cap ayam comp. speakers most tend to be 'noisy' (music not clean) in which you will hear a mix of treble and bass together and not separated like what a comp. speaker should do. Just a word of caution, becareful of imitation products as they are widely available especiially from lelong.com. There are people selling Rockford, JL Audio, MB Quart, Soundstream at rock-bottom prices so be very very careful and not attracted by the prices. Physically they are 95% the same but the sound quality can be very different. I know this because I kena 'con' before when I purchase a set of JL speakers at only RM400 when the market is selling at RM1950!:baring_teeth: It certainly looks almost the same but the quality is like shit. :angry_smile: thx!</blockquote>[/QUOTE]
