What is the benefit of having Dual Batteries in a Car Audio Setup?
I am wondering why one would want Dual batteries in a Car Audio Setup?
Is this done so that when the audio system is on when the car engine is off it will have more current to give?
Will dual batteries have any effect on the power delivery to the audio system when the car is running?
Can I just hook two identical model batteries in parallel?
Some wisdom is appreciated, Thanks.
Can you recommend a good car audio book?
I have learned ALOT from yahoo answers. With everyone’s help, I was able to go from knowing nothing to designing and installing my own system. Now I want to know more.
I know alot of things that I didn’t know before, but I want to get into the technical aspects of speakers and audio systems. Cna anyone recommend a beginner to novice level book on the topic? A car audio ‘bible’ is exactly what I’m trying to find. Thanks.
Why can’t I use a car audio amp for my home speakers?
Hi,
I have heard that it is not possible to use a car audio amplifier with my home speakers. Can anyone explain to me why not? The only difference I can see is the Ohms – which is probably the whole reason but I would like to understand why specifically. Thanks!
No I wan wanting to use a Car Amplifier in my house with my house speakers. I shouldn’t have a problem getting around the power supply issue. My only question is will I damage my home speakers which are rated at 8 ohms with a car amp which is rated at 4 amps? And are there any other factors that I need to consider with home speakers being compatible with a car amplifier?
Can anyone suggest a surround car audio set up given the following?
Can anyone suggest an audio setup for a compact car (Honda CIty 2003) with an alpine IVA-D105 head unit?
My car is a small 4-door, 5-seater with interiors similar to the Honda Jazz/Fit. The biggest difference is that the City has got a trunk where as the Jazz/Fit is a hatchback. It does not have the space behind the back seats of a hatchback. Its just got that space behind the back seats and the rear wind shields, like other sedans have.
My head unit is wasted on its stock 2 speakers found at the front doors.
I prefer alpine as they are readily available where i live in.
Fish, do you suggest to get the SPR-17C or to go spend some more to get SPR-17S?
Can I install a car audio subwoofer into my surround sound system subwoofer?
I have a surround sound system that has a six inch sub. I want to take that one out and install an Alpine Type R 10 sub into it. Im not big on audio stuff, so I was just wondering if I am able to put a car audio sub into a surround sound sub? Also do you think it will mess up my surround sound system if i changed the six inch sub to a ten inch?? Thanks.
