Audio & Electronics

An external car audio amplifier is necessary when you're running a lot of components in your system. If you're planning to purchase component speakers, tweeters and a subwoofer for your car, the stock power supply system just won't do this new car audio equipment justice. With an amplifier, you can expect much higher quality sound from all of your car audio components. Proper tuning is also important to your stereo system. Even if you purchase all new sound equipment for your car, you'll still have to make sure the settings are right; otherwise the audio quality will remain poor. Set the car audio equalizer according to what you listen to most -- if you're into classical music or talk radio, maybe you don't need to the bass turned up to hip-hop levels. Most aftermarket stereos come with several pre-set options for tuning based on different types of listening. Select the one you like best, or tune it yourself. In addition, a high quality amplifier, helps improve in-car speaker performance. The extra thick aluminum is designed to pull heat away from the internal circuit board, resulting in cooler operation and increased functionality. The GM-series amplifiers also offer built-in crossovers, bass boost, speaker level input and low impedance connections.
