How to choose a car radio?

The radio is an integral part of every car. It is hard to imagine a car without a car radio now. After all, the radio is useful to all motorists-someone will listen to the news on the radio, and someone will enjoy their favorite tracks during the trip.

Replacing a factory installed recorder can significantly improve the sound quality of the music and expand the functionality of the head unit itself. Modern car stereos have a large informative display, built-in GPS navigation, internet access and a number of other useful features.

At the moment, the radio has become not just a device for playing music, but a full-fledged multimedia center.

When choosing a head unit, you must first decide on the size-1DIN or 2DIN. Receiver 2DIN is often more functional, thanks to the presence of a large display and a more advanced operating system (Android, WinCE). These receivers require more space for installation and may not be installed in every car, but even if your car does not have space for installing 2DIN car radio , there are 1DIN receivers with a large exit display. With delivery in Ukraine, you can buy a car stereo in Kiev, Kharkov, Odessa on 130.com.ua.

Also, when choosing, you need to pay attention to the rated power of the built-in amplifier, the presence of USB/SD connectors, the type of display, the operating system and the presence of additional functions such as built-in GPS navigation, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, the ability to connect a rear view camera and so on.

Sound Amplifiers

Sound amplifiers are needed to unlock the full potential of acoustics. Without an amplifier, acoustics with a power of 70-80 W will not be able to work at full power from the radio. In order for such acoustics to work at full, a sound amplifier with a nominal power of about 70-80 watts per channel is needed.
