Car amplifier - power and sound saturation

Many drivers prefer good music in high-quality sound, that's why the car amplifier is installed, and even not one. Power and sound volume are two completely different concepts. Loudly can play and 30-watt speakers-pishchalki. But they will not be able to reproduce properly all the multifaceted sound. Therefore, when choosing an automobile amplifier, it is necessary to take the device with a power reserve.

For example, on receivers it is usually written that it is possible to connect 4 speakers to 50W, but it is not noted that this power is given only for a short time, and at normal time the sound is fed to 10-20W. Of course, you can create a car amplifier with your own hands, but is it so good compared to the original?

These devices can be divided into different categories: mono or stereo. Of course, mono is almost not used, because the second kind of system is much more profitable and pleasant for the ear. Although it can contain 4 speakers (usually the receiver has two front and two rear outputs), but you can understand the music and using the two front speakers. This is due to the fact that the stereo itself represents a different sound of the two sides, that is, with one playing one instrument, and on the other the sound of others. Therefore, if you are not too afraid to upset your passengers sitting in the back seat, then you can only limit the front acoustics.

The car amplifier is also divided by the serial number. It can be 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-channel.

A two-channel audio amplifier is mostly used to connect either one subwoofer or two speakers. The subwoofer is used to reproduce low frequencies and can be connected in mono mode with two channels. Thus, forcing the power. But it is worth noting that for the correct operation of the device you need a low-pass filter, which must be built into the car amplifier, while on the rest of the equipment for sound reproduction, low frequencies are generally removed.

Four-channel amplifiers occupy a leading position among motorists. They are the most versatile devices. If you think about how to connect a car amplifier of this type, then you can choose different options. Some use a subwoofer and front speakers, while the channels are divided in half. Others connect only the speakers (front and rear). But there is also the possibility of a "strip" separation, that is, two entrances go to "pishchalki", and the other two - to H4.

Five-channel devices of this type, in fact, do not differ from the previous ones, only instead of two channels going to the front acoustics, there are 4, they can be connected both in front and behind. Bandwidth is also provided if the filters meet the requirements.

After the amplifier is selected, it remains to connect it, and this is quite a difficult task. It is worth remembering that it must be ventilated, since the device has a property to heat up. Also the whole structure, including the wires, must be securely fixed.
