need help with car stereo
Ive decided I need a better system in my car even though I am old and suck at life lol only to relize I spent my younger years under a hood and I dont know ---- about car audio. I am going to keep the factory head unit and just need to get a decent amp with high input to power my alpine type r's I've had sitting in the garage for the last two years... do they still make amps with high input?
found this on egay for 110 shipped, is this good... I remember memphes audio used to be a pro brand, deal sounds too good to be true do I have them mixed up with somebody else? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Memph...QQcmdZViewItem |
Re: need help with car stereo
first off i am gonna assume you have two 12 inch type r's each with 1200 watts. The amp you are looking at is only 400 total watts of power split between 4 channels. So each sub of yours will only be getting 100 watts of power and will not produce the amount of power needed to push those subs to their potential.

200 watts per bridged pair of channels, not 100. |

Yeah......I signed up on another board.....job offers I walked away from over ten years ago are still there.......
I really don't wanna get back into Car Audio......but the money would be good. I've forgotten so much I'd be a newbie all over again....... |

Re: need help with car stereo
your looking for line level inputs..........
which will be a crappy signal, 200 watts a sub will be plenty, the box you put them in will matter more. |

Is a box really necessary for good sound? I'm not trying to shake the brains out of my neighbors, just would like some more beat down-low. |

I have 1 12 punch in my camaro, and I keep it with the bass all the way down, who needs that boom boom nig music anyway.
