A question to all of the music lovers….Are you looking for a great music for your car? Here are some tips that would help you choose the perfect car stereo amplifiers.

  • First criteria for selection should be power. The amplifiers have two levels, Root Mean Square (RMS) and Peak Power both measured in watts. Normally peak power is double the RMS. Make sure that the power rating of your car speakers match that of amplifiers to avoid damage.
  • Another important criterion is the channel. The more the number of channels more speakers can be installed. There are three types:
    Single-channel powers a single speaker.
    Two-channel powers two speakers and a subwoofer.
    Four-channel powers up to four speakers and two subwoofers.

Amplifier

For mind-blasting sound effect, you may want to install a car amplifier to boost up your speakers and sub-woofer. However, it makes a big dent in your pocket when you get it fitted from outside. This pretty simple task doesn’t require rocket science; so do it all by yourself by just following you these simple steps-

1. Fix a place for keeping your amplifier and in case you are installing subwoofers then put the amp in the trunk next to the subwoofer attachment. For those wanting to power their car speakers with amp, they should ideally place it underneath the passenger’s seat.

2. For mechanical set up, you will require few cables. So, purchase the following wires for setting up the amp-

- A thick power cable, though the thickness will depend on the total wattage of your amplifier. But the cable will have to run from the battery to reach the amp. Make sure your cable has inline fuse to protect the amp.

- 3 feet ground cable of the thickness equal to the power cable.

- RCA cable to carry the left right signals from the head unit to the amp.

- A thin wire “remote on” wire of approx. 20 to 24 gauge, it will reach the amp through the unit

- Speaker wire, for main speakers buy a 16-gauge wire and for subwoofers you need to buy a 3 feet of 12-gauge wire per sub.
