If it has auxiliary inputs, such as a line level input, then yes, it should be able to serve as an amplifier. Be warned though that it probably won't work well as a guitar / instrument amplifier.

How do you wire your amp to receiver?

ideally "line out" on the receiver to "audio in" on the amplifier, left and right... If there isn't a "line out" use the the "audio out" but keep the volume on the receiver relatively low to prevent overdriving the inputs on the amplifier.


What type of amplifier would be used to drive speaker system of a record player?

An audio power amplifier. An audio amplifier is designed to amplify frequencies between 15 Hz and 20 kHz. Any amplifier that is designed for this entire band of frequencies or any band of frequencies contained in the audio range is considered to be an audio amplifier. by charming syamu...

What is the difference between an amplifier and a receiver?

Answerit is tempting to compare a repeater to an amplifier, but the comparision is inaccurate. according to Forouzan, an amplifier cannot discriminate between the intended signal and noise; it amplifies equally everything fed into it. a repeater does not amplify the signal; it regenerates the signal. when it receives a weakened or corrupted signal, it creates a copy, bit for bit, at the original strength.a repeater is a regenerator; not an amplifiera repeater forwards every bit; it has no filtering capabilitya repeater connects segments of a LAN

What will happen if you hook up a 2-Ohm Car Subwoofer to an 8-Ohm Home Receiver I have a Kicker Comp 12 2-Ohm Subwoofer so I was wondering if I could hook it up to my 8-Ohm Home Receiver HELP?

If your home receiver is not rated for a 2-ohm load (many can handle a 4-ohm, but not a 2-ohm), you will damage components inside the amplifier by over-current. Don't use car stereo components in home stereo equipment. It's like using a hockey helmet to ride a motorcycle.

Can you hook up an mp to a stock stereo?

Yes you can. First, determine which type of signal input is required by your amplifier, RCA inputs or (+/-) speaker wire. If it's only RCA inputs and your stock stereo does not have RCA outputs in the rear of the unit, then you will have to convert each speaker wire pairs to RCA with a converter, then go to your amplifier. If your stock unit does have RCA out, then just use an RCA cable and connect the signal from your stereo to your amplifier. Then simply follow the instructions from your amplifier to connect your speakers depending on if they are 2ohm, 4ohm, or 8ohm, etc. PS - make sure you properly ground your amplifier to either chassis or directly to the negative on your battery. If you create any large amounts of resistance or have extra wire hanging around, you will get ground loops and EMI problems and hear engine noise from your speakers as you accelerate. Good Luck


How to install a stereo in a car?

Installing a stereo in a car may look like a task that is best left up to the professionals, but in reality, the task is simpler than it looks. With a number of installation kits that simplify the installation process, it’s easy to install a stereo in little to no time at all. If you choose not to use a kit, then while there will be a bit more work involved in the installation, it is not completely impossible for someone to do it on their own. There are several components that make up car’s stereo system. These include the speakers, the receiver unit and the amplifier. The receiver controls all of the aspects of the stereo system’s operation, receiving FM and AM signals while controlling the volume and tone of the sound. The receiver itself can provide sound to the speakers, but most receivers and many factory installed units don’t have enough power to properly deliver that signal, requiring the use of an external amplifier. This is why many vehicles have an amplifier installed in addition to a receiver. The speakers, of course, deliver sound to the interior of the car. The average automobile will have anywhere from three to eight, depending on how high-end the car or even the system itself is. Before installing a car stereo, make sure that the receiver unit fits into the space you’re installing it in. Most automakers use a standardized size for their factory stereos, including DIN, double-DIN and DIN 1.5. If you have an oversized space, then you will need an adapter plate that provides a sure fit. Wiring the system is another issue that most will run into. Most cars have a factory harness that is incompatible with the connectors on your aftermarket stereo, resulting the need for cutting and rewiring the harness. The use of pre-fabricated wiring harnesses can eliminate the need for cutting and reconnecting wires, not only making the installation much simpler, but also faster.


Do I have to buy a new car stereo to use a car amplifier?

Although it is not required in most situations, most people prefer to have a stereo that meets certain basic requirements such as CD, digital and satellite radio, and auxilliary input.
