Didn't expect that much debate here! But good to read all of you. As it seems important, I drive a small car, a Nissan Micra from 2007. The speakers are the ones that come with the car, and they don't sound bad for the car it is, but I would like to improve it. I was thinking in maybe moving...

Hi, I only have speakers on the front part of the vehicle, and I am wondering if having also speakers on the rear zone, on the area of the passengers, not upon the baggage part, would improve my audio experience while driving. I have to buy the amp and the front speakers, so before doing it I...

I was thinking in something more like 17W RMS, but if you are right, the better for me. 200€ is more a number to avoid haha I found a second hand 100xW amplifier for 30€, and a set of component speakers for 60€. This, plus the 40€ of the Sony DSX-A410BT, it would be more or less what I want to...

Thanks for the recomendattion, but this is way too much of what I want to spend. Also, I have read the speakers shouldn't have a lot more watts than the radio/amplifier, and as I said, my radio have 17w, and those speakers seems to have 60-70w. I am already looking at the impedance as a...

Reading technical articles it seems one shouldn't mix a low wattage amplifier with speakers having a lot of watts, because this would brake the tweeters in a mid-short time. (i.e.: 17w RMS on the amplifier with 60w RMS on the speakers). Also read the recomended relation between (1)amplifier and...

The radio is a Sony DSX-A410BT. It is supposed to be a good one. Maybe you are right and those 73db SNR refers to the FM. Can you check it, or tell me how to find it out, please?

Can someone clarify this point? It would be good to know this point, to understand better the CarAudio world

Hi, I have a Nissan micra K12 which I want to make an upgrade in the music system. First I changed the HU and placed a Sony DSX-A410BT radio, and there is no amp. I am looking forward to more quality than quantity, but if some Watts can be gain thanks to a higher sensitivity they will be...

Hi, I want to make a question related to what is spoken in this thread. It appeared here the controversy of installing an amp even having a good HU, and I am asking myself why. Of course I would understand it if we were talking about a cheap amazon radio, but a Sony radio which boasts having...

I don't know the car audio radio standards, but the radio has a Signal to noise ratio of 73db, which it seems awfull to me. In HiFi it starts to be okay when it is over 95db. Are SNR in car audio this low? By the way, in the item description of that radio says it has crossovers built-in. Isn't...

Those 55W are PMPO????? I was sure they were RMS. Oh ****... Are there radios more powerful than this? Those the testing tone frequency a detail I must care about?

I am definetly going for the exact ohms my radio says it wants. Looking at the specs ( https://www.indiamart.com/proddetail/sony-dsx-a410bt-4-x-55-w-media-receiver-with-bluetooth-technology-19736891388.html ) it says is 4 ohms/1Khz/16V, so no question with ohms. The question now is what those 1...

Hi, looking to (probably) set a component speakers on my car, and watching some videos I discovered the tweeters are not really pointing to the altitude where front sitting people (driver and copilot) ears are. It surprises me because I thougth tweeters in component speakers MUST point directly...

Ok, so the one's stating 200W are surely talking about PMPO, as those 200W is for each channel. Well, I still can't know (nor imagine) the RMS without entering into detailed specification, or having to visit the manufacturer webpage, but at least have some more info. Quick question: in HiFi...

Well guys, I just need how to know the RMS of different speakers set I am considering, which is very difficult as most of the speakers I saw they stated something like 120, 150 or 200W, and I don't understand if those watts have to be divided per 2 because they are 2 speakers, or if those watts...
