Car audio buying guide
A few checks before you buy make it much easier to get a head unit, speakers or amplifier that fits your vehicle and sounds the way you want.
Single DIN or double DIN head unit?
DIN describes the size of the dash opening. A single DIN head unit is about 180 × 50 mm and a double DIN unit about 180 × 100 mm, which leaves room for a touchscreen. Check the opening in your dash, then compare single DIN and double DIN head units.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
CarPlay works with iPhone and Android Auto with Android phones. Not every Bluetooth head unit includes them, and some connect by cable only while others are wireless, so check the head unit’s specifications for the features you want before you buy.
Fitting kits and vehicle compatibility
Most aftermarket head units need a vehicle-specific facia or fitting kit to sit neatly in the dash, and a wiring harness such as an ISO vehicle connector so you don’t cut factory wiring. Some vehicles also need an aerial adaptor or an interface to keep steering wheel controls. Fitment varies by make, model, year and trim, so confirm your exact vehicle first.
Choosing a reverse camera
A reverse camera needs a screen to display on: either a head unit with a camera input or a separate monitor. Choose a mounting style that suits your vehicle, such as number-plate or bracket mounting, and check how the camera will switch on when you select reverse.
Coaxial or component speakers?
Coaxial speakers have the tweeter mounted in front of the woofer, so they drop into most factory speaker locations as a simple upgrade. Component speakers separate the woofer, tweeter and crossover, which gives clearer stereo imaging but takes more work to install. Browse car speakers.
Amplifiers and subwoofers
A factory or aftermarket head unit has a small built-in amplifier. An external amplifier gives speakers more clean power, and a passive subwoofer needs one to drive it. Powered (active) subwoofers and bass tubes have an amplifier built in, which keeps installation simpler. Amp wiring kits supply the power and signal cabling.
Power ratings and impedance
Compare RMS (continuous) power ratings rather than peak or maximum figures, and match an amplifier’s RMS output to what your speakers can handle. Most car speakers are 4 ohms. Subwoofers come in 2 and 4 ohm, single or dual voice coil versions, and the way they are wired changes the load, so make sure your amplifier is rated for the final impedance.
Marine-grade audio
Boats, ATVs and RVs expose audio equipment to water, UV and salt. Marine-rated stereos, speakers and amplifiers are built to cope with those conditions; check the water-resistance rating listed for each product.
