Product Type
Amplifiers,
Number of Channels
Each channel on an amplifier will power one speaker using a positive and negative cable. There are various types of amplifiers, each designed to power a certain number of speakers. Monoblock amplifiers, also known as single channel, are designed to power one or more subwoofers. These amplifiers often have very high power ratings. On the other hand, multi-channel amplifiers power multiple speakers, usually at lower power ratings. 2-Channel and 4-Channel amplifiers can power car speakers or low powered subwoofers. Occasionally you might see a 5 or 6-channel amplifier that can power speakers and subwoofers at the same time. The most common setup is a monoblock amp to run subwoofers and a 4-channel amp to run door speakers. Check out our Knowledge Base for more information.
Amplifier Class

An amplifier increases the power of the signal being fed to it by taking energy from its power supply and matching the signal but increasing its amplitude. Amplifiers use many different methods for converting these electrical signals and have been categorized into classes.

Class A/B: Greater than 50% of the input signal is amplified while the other percentage is “off”. These amplifiers have a small amount of current flowing through the output transistors all the time which almost eliminates crossover distortion. Class A/B has great sound quality but is not as efficient as class D. These amps are most commonly used to drive speakers.

Class D: Also known as switching amplifiers, class D amps have output transistors that are completely turned “on” or “off”. This means that when the transistors are on, there is almost no voltage across them but when they are off there is significant voltage but no current flowing through it which makes these amplifiers very efficient at the cost of sound quality. These amps are most commonly used to drive subwoofers.

Other Classes: You may see classes such as GH, bD, X, FD, etc. by some manufactures. These amplifiers tend to be either class A/B, D or a hybrid of the two but with improvements to their designs that can make them more efficient or offer better sound quality.
Total RMS Power Output
Total RMS power is measured by multiplying RMS power per channel by the number of channels, and is calculated at the lowest level of operating impedance.

RMS power is the amount of continuous power, measured in watts, that an amplifier produces is called RMS power. The higher the RMS figure, the louder and cleaner your music sounds.

The RMS output figure is much more accurate than the peak rating when comparing products.
Total Peak Power Output
The total peak power output is measured as the wattage per channel multiplied by the number of channels, and is calculated at the lowest level of operating impedance.

It is measured during a brief musical burst, such as a sudden drum accent. Some manufacturers display peak power ratings on the face of their products to increase the appeal.

The RMS power rating is more accurate, and we recommend using it for product comparison.
Series
Many brands group their products into series or lines of products to help customers know the level of quality (good, better, best for example). You can filter by series and the brand using our guided browsing.
Minimum Impedance Unbridged
The lowest impedance the amplifier will handle when it is not bridged.
Remote bass/level controller
If the amp comes with a bass/gain remote you will be able to control the level of your bass from your dashboard. Typically bass remotes also include a 16-20 ft. wire for installation.
Preamp Outputs
Many amplifiers are equipped with RCA preamp outputs which pass the original music signal from the source to additional amplifiers. This is known as daisy chaining because the source connects to the first amp, and the first amp connects to the second amp, etc. The advantage to daisy chaining is you only need one 2-channel RCA cable to transfer the signal from the head-unit to the amplifier, and then one additional cable for each amp being daisy chained.
Built-in Crossover

A crossover is a type of filtering system that permits only certain frequencies to play. A Low-Pass (LP) crossover allows only frequencies below its setting to get through which is good in the case of some subwoofers. A High-Pass(HP) filter allows frequencies above its setting to pass through, this is normally used on speakers.

When a crossover is set to FULL it means no filtering is added and the full frequency spectrum is allowed through the amplifier. Filtering is important because feeding a speaker frequencies it cannot reproduce effectively creates distortion.

    FAQ Frequently asked questions in Discontinued Bass Boosters & Restoration

    Bass Boosters & Restoration Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    A bass booster, also known as a bass enhancer or bass restoration system, is an audio device designed to amplify and enhance low-frequency bass sounds in a car audio system. It works by analyzing the audio signal and selectively boosting bass frequencies, adding depth and impact to the music. This can provide a more immersive listening experience, particularly for genres that heavily rely on powerful bass, such as hip-hop and electronic music.
    A bass restoration system utilizes advanced circuitry to detect and recreate low-frequency harmonics that might be lost during the recording or playback process. It identifies the fundamental bass frequencies and adds harmonics to restore the natural depth of the sound. This process effectively enhances the perception of bass without overpowering other frequencies. The result is a fuller, more robust bass response that can be customized to personal preferences.
    Yes, a well-designed bass booster can improve audio quality by filling in the low-frequency gaps that might be present in the original audio recording. While a bass booster primarily focuses on enhancing bass frequencies, the overall effect can lead to a more balanced and enjoyable sound experience. It's important to note that excessive boosting can lead to distortion and muddiness, so proper adjustment is crucial to maintain audio clarity.
    Bass boosters are compatible with most car audio systems, including factory and aftermarket setups. They can be integrated into the signal chain between the head unit and the amplifier or directly into the amplifier. However, compatibility can vary based on the specific model and brand of the bass booster. It's advisable to check the manufacturer's recommendations and ensure proper installation for optimal performance.
    Bass restoration and bass boosting are related concepts but serve different purposes. Bass restoration aims to recreate missing or weakened low-frequency harmonics, restoring the natural bass response that might be lost during recording or playback. On the other hand, bass boosting involves amplifying existing bass frequencies to achieve a more pronounced and impactful bass effect. While both techniques enhance bass, restoration is focused on accuracy, while boosting emphasizes intensity.
