      Auto Sound Systems Made Easy - Jeannine Hill

      Easy

      Putting It All Together

      Let's review: head units take your CD or tape and convert it to electrical signals. The amplifier

      makes this signal larger, and finally the speakers take that signal and make sound out of it.

      These are the base components you need for any car stereo installation. The accessories, such

      as crossovers and signal isolators, may or may not be needed for your particular application.

      These are the basics you need to know for all car stereo systems. Now that you have a better

      idea what all these different terms actually mean, you should be able to shop intelligently for

      your new car stereo system. Just remember, as always, while you get what you pay for, you

      don't necessarily have to have the absolute best (and most expensive) parts for a good sound.

      More often than not, a midrange product will provide the best bang for your buck. And

      remember, it's all modular! You don't HAVE to buy every piece all at once. You can start with

      the head unit, and simply wire it's built in amplifier into your factory car stereo speakers. Add a sub and an amp later if you want, or replace the factory speakers with higher quality ones, it's all up to you.

      How to: A Car Stereo Installation Guide

      If you have ever looked into buying a new car stereo system, you probably realize that the costs

      of having it professionally installed can almost double the cost of your new system. But there is

      always the other option: do it yourself. While a car stereo installation can be complicated, there is nothing in particular that prevents you from doing it yourself, as long as you are willing to put in the time and effort to learn how before you diving into the project. Not only can you learn a lot, but there is always a sense of satisfaction when you fire it up for the first time, knowing you did it all yourself.

      Patience and caution are paramount here. Some car stereo equipment is quite expensive, not to

      mention the price of your car to begin with! So be careful, proceed slowly, and if you have

      doubts, find out the answer to whatever is bothering you before you continue. Not taking it slow

      and carefully can lead to a botched install or even broken equipment or a damaged vehicle.

      Beginners are advised to keep it simple the first time around. Don't try to install a full car theater system with LCD displays and DVD players or video games for your first installation. Start with

      the head unit. This is both the easiest and the most critical thing to get right the first time. Often the wiring harness that plugs into your factory stereo will need an adapter to get the correct

      electrical connections to the power and speaker system already in your car. And being able to

      reuse your factory wiring makes things much easier down the road when replacing the factory

      speakers. Don't just cut the harness off! Use an adapter. If you ever want to replace the head

      unit again, things will be much easier if you can simply unplug the old adapter and replace
