Are there powered car speakers or do you absolutely need an amplifier?
You should get a amplifier if you want good sound quality out of your speakers.
How can you connect extra speakers ot your stereo?
You should have outputs in the back of the amplifier.
Best match of amplifier with speakers?
I always try to match an amplifier or receiver that is rated within the following range: from .8 times to 1.5 times the RMS rating of the speakers. The impedance of the speakers should not be rated below 5 ohms unless the amplifier/receiver is conservatively rated as 4 ohm stable.
What speakers match a 300 watt 4 channel amplifier?
The ratings for the speakers will depend upon what '300 watts' means. If the amplifier develops 300 watts RMS total across 4 channels, this would indicate 75 watts RMS per channel. Speakers rated at 100 watts should suffice for this amplifier.
How do you select speakers with respect to the impedance of the amplifier?
Amplifiers are rated to operate within a range of impedances. Typically, a domestic amplifier will drive a minimum impedance of 8 Ohms or 4 Ohms. Using speakers that have an impedance lower than the amplifier rating is likely to increase distortion and can damage the outputs of the amplifier if the levels are too high. Using speakers that are significantly higher than the minimum rating will not cause damage to either the amplifier or speakers but it will reduce the power that is delivered to the speakers. In most domestic systems, this limitation of the power output is not likely to be an issue. Any amplifier rated to drive into 4 Ohms will work well with speakers of between 4 and 8 Ohms. An amplifier with an 8 Ohm rating should be used only with speakers of 8 Ohms or higher.
Will a 10w amplifier be all right with 180w speakers and are there any risks?
A: No speakers are not at risk. what it maybe a risk is the amplifier if it try to drive 180 watts load. but as long as you keep the level at 10 watts output it should work fine
What important factors should I consider when buying an amplifier for my car?
There are a bunch of important factors to consider prior to buying an amplifier for a vehicle. Primarily, you must decide what the amplifier will be primarily used for. If the amplifier will be used for powering subwoofers it would be good to consider the bridged or mono capabilities as well as ohm ratings of the amplifier as well as the draw, or amount of power the amplifier will pull from the car's electrical system. The most important factor in considering an amplifier for powering subwoofers is probably output watts, which will determine the amplifier's power to the speakers and the amount of bass to be transmitted. If the amplifier is to be used to power mid or high range speakers, a multi channel (four or more) amplifier should be considered because of the ability to run multiple sets of speakers or component sets off of the different channels of the amplifier. The considerations inherent to the subwoofer amplifier are also present including watt ouput and power draw, but when selecting a multi cha
If I have an amplifier at 20 feet from my speakers which cable number should I use?
i think cable no. wont vary according to the distance
Where is the factory amp at on 1997 dodge Dakota?
On a 1997 Dodge Dakota, the factory amplifier is located in the passenger side kick panel, directly in front of the door. The amplifier should be hooked directly into the speakers.
How do you put home speakers in car?
you might need to buy an amplifier and it varies from what size and how much power the speakers are. your local best buy should be able to help you.....go to best buy and their geek squad should be able to help you
Can you twist more speakers in line with the existing speakers By this you mean the plus and - clamps for speaker wire on the system you would be adding two wires to each Both are 4b speakers or some?
Yes, but you should be careful not to exceed the amplifier's mininum impedence rating for each channel. If your amplifier is rated down to 4 ohms, you cannot connect more than two 8-ohm speakers on to each lead. Doing so will damage the amplifier. Connecting two 4-ohm speakers will drop the impedence down to 2 ohms, which is lower than most home amplifiers will tolerate.
When using two 8 ohm speakers with a terminal of 8 ohm should you use parallel or series wiring?
They should be in parallel so that both speakers will (a) get the full damping effect of the low amplifier output resistance, and (b) receive the maximum available voltage swing from the amplifier before limiting and distortion occur. If they sound the same in series, that cancels the effect of 40 years of 'techno' articles on speakers in glossy audio magazines :).
