Will you blow your stock speakers if you hook them up to an amp?
Twonforshort
i couldn't find where to put more info so i did in an answer lol but before i get spammed with its stupid cause a new head unit will add enough power so you don't need it. I have a good head unit the reason i want to is because i have an equilizer that only has RC hook ups in the back and i need an amp to do that.. so if i hook them up to the amp so i can essentually hook them to my equilizer will it blow my stock speakers. i think it is like a 180 or 250 watt amp. can i turn the gain down? will i have to be gentle on the volume(don't really wanna do that) please help me

How do you hook up an amp and sub woofer up to a stock radio in a 1996 firebird?
cut the back speaker wire going to one of the rear speakers.. take the pos and neg into the amp.. if the amp only takes RCA inputs you will need to buy a line level converter.. turns pos neg into RCA.. also you must wire up a switch for turning the amp on.. just a 12volt source works

How do you hook an amp into a stock CD player?
You don't hook it into the stock CD player, you re-run the speakers wires from the radio to one central location, hook up the amp, rerun the speaker wires from the amp to the speakers. BUT, most stock speakers are cheaply made with cardboard, so I would recommend upgrading your speakers as well or chances are you will separate the cone if it's amped past stock. You have to get a "aloc"adjustable line out converter to run rca cables to your amp then run the speaker wires to your sub the aloc taps into your existing speaker wire and reduces the db.rca's are a low db input you need .5 to 5 db to hit rca input at the amp which is what the aloc does.
Will my 2 speakers both 140W blow with a 450W amplifier?
Yes, most likely. If your speakers are rated for 140w each then it's possible to blow them if your amp drives em at full power. If you do hook them up then find a way to limit the volume or output of your amp. Sophisticated amps and stereos have settings that allow you to do this.

Can you hook 2 subs to a mono amp?
Sure i have 2 400 watt rockfords connected to a 400watt kenwood mono amp. This statement made by another is true.You can hook up 20 subs to a mono amp; BUT you have to configure the speakers by impedance/ohms. if you hook two 2 ohm speakers to a 4 ohm steady amp in parallel you will soon buy a new amp. if you hook 10 speakers in series you will not even get it warm. Each speaker will also divide the available wattage and will not have a lot of power. Take it to a good shop if you don't know the formula for this. you may save your amp. BMyers Lake city, FL

Can you hook up subs to a stock magnum CD player?
Yes you can, The battery is in the back of the trunk, you hook your amp up to the battery and then the amp to the sub, you need to buy a converter for the back speaker, you can buy one from any car audio shop, you then splice the wires in the back and hook up your converter, then hook the converter to the amp, But get it professionally installed because my buddy tried to do it with his magnum and it started to blow fuses, It shocked him today, he is going to get it professionally done today

Can an amplifier improve factory car speakers quality?
Hi, if you amp up you factory car speakers you could blow them up because in most vehicles that Ive owned, they are less than 100 watts unless they are concert sound, then they might be able to be amped but the concert sound ones are already amp just like you stock ones (which are perfectly amp for that speaker). So technically i would not amp them unless you want to replace them with aftermarket speakers. so no it would not improve sound quality.
