does anyone know how to tell if you car has a factory amp, because im looking to get a aftermarket system and i went to car toys and they said i had a amp and it would cost $150 to cross it over. I also went to best buy and they said i didn't how do iknow for sure. I already looked in the manual for the car. I have a 2000 ford explore with no tweeters or subs.
A Crossover regulates the frequency range sent to any of the amps. So with a crossover you can adjust at wich frequency the sound is deiverted to the Woofer or Midrange/tweeters.
Most P.A. systems in clubs for instance crossover from woofer to midrange @ around 80- 150 Hz. this way the woofer outputs up to 150 Hz while the rest gets outputted by the midrange/tweeters
just thought that ur explanation of a crossover was sorta lacking
@baseballkid444 you can do both your speakers will sound much better but you need a 4 channel amp haha don't use a mono block amplifier and i would suggest component speakers which is a speaker and a tweeter, but buy your shit online it's wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy cheaper and by way cheaper i mean wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy cheaper.
@baseballkid444 also you don't need a 2 channel amp for two subs like this guys said you can just get a mono block amp if your installing two subs it will still have two speaker outputs(that's actually how its usually done) i used to have 1 1500 watt RMS mono block amp on 3 12" subs. with a 4 channel amp to power my interior speakers, sounded great :).
@baseballkid444 I would but you don't have to, they also have 5 channel amps which is 4 channels for the speakers and one for the sub, if were you for a starter system i would just get two Sony Xplod 12" subs and a sony 1000Watt or 1200Watt amp, and then just put in maybe kicker component speakers in the doors or you could go even cheaper then that for the speakers, and i'd hook them up to a sony or pioneer 4 channel amp. i would prolly do that first to see if you like it
@Tom64o for your first one you won't be disappointed. sony's not that great overall but they're a good first system. lol they were mine and a bunch of people i know, got us all hooked on stereo's.
what is the matter with you people.... just because some people can't speak English correctly does not mean they don't know what they are doing. In the contrary, some are smarter than you.
unless a mexican installs your system, you didnt get the best system out there, the dude who did mine, AMAZING... his english was bad, but we understood each other perfectly, and he gave me a good deal (obviously) and did a fantastic job, wiring and all, very clean.
He knows what he's talking about he's giving the basics if you already know how to pick out a complete sound system with head unit amplifiers speakers subs port vs sealed rms/peak ratings you don't need to watch this video it's only for those who are going to like best buy and want some basic information before buying something they might not want.
I've been looking all over trying to learn about car audio, this is the most informed video I've found on all of youtube. Thank you very much for the post!
