These are the key features of the car stereo. If you select more than one feature, then you will view stereos that have ALL features selected. For example, selecting Apple CarPlay AND USB input will result in stereos that have both features. The Floating Touchscreen feature is the "Tesla" style large screen that so many vehicles are including now. We have aftermarket "floating" large "Tesla-esque" screens for your vehicle and they're only a click away.

CD Receivers play CD's. They may also have USB and auxiliary inputs, SD card slots, bluetooth for Hands-free calling and audio streaming.

DVD Receivers play music and videos from DVD and CD discs, They may also have USB and auxiliary inputs, SD card slots, and bluetooth for Hands-free calling and audio streaming.

Digital Media Receivers, commonly referred to as "mech-less" receivers, Digital Media receivers do not play CD's. To play music, they rely on music stored on a USB drive, SD card, and built-in Bluetooth.

Digital Multimedia Receivers are simply Digital Media Receivers with the ability to play video from your phone or storage device such as a USB drive or SD card.

GPS Navigation Receivers typically have all the features of a DVD or Digital Multimedia Receiver but also have built-in GPS that doesn't require the use of a smartphone.

Head units are equipped with different technology that allows a variety of smartphone integration features. Some stereos are equipped with more features than others, here you will find which iPod/iPhone features this head unit has.

Single DIN: 1 DIN dimensions will work with all single DIN installation kits we have to offer. Single DIN radios are the most common size for after-market stereos.

Single DIN slot with flip-out screen: The DIN stereo includes a retractable, flip-out screen. Before purchasing, make measurements to be sure there is no interference with dash accessories such as A/C vents or shift levers.

Single DIN slot with a larger face: Standard single DIN size, but the display is larger then the standard single DIN size. Due to the nature of the larger face, problems may arise when installing in particular vehicles. These stereos are great for single DIN slots where you want a larger screen.

1.5 DIN: This size is very uncommon in vehicles, however this size opening is most commonly found in Chrysler and Chevrolet vehicles.

Double DIN: Approximately 4-inches in height, this size is becoming more common every year. Prior to 2000, this size was typically only found in Japanese vehicles such as those made by Honda or Toyota. Now, it is becoming more popular for many vehicles to be fit with a Double DIN opening.

This is the size of the monitor on the unit. It is measured diagonally and in inches. The bigger the number the larger the screen.
These inputs enable the unit to receive an audio or video signal from a separate source. There are many different types of connections and ways to accomplish this. Most common are RCA Composite cables and 3.5mm mini-jack plugs.

RCA Composite Inputs
These are your typical red, white, and yellow RCA composite cables that are common among devices with audio and video inputs. The red and white cables are dedicated for audio. The red cable is for the right channel and the white is for the left channel. The yellow cable is specifically for the video signal. Because this type of auxiliary cable contains 2 channels of audio, it will support stereo sound.

3.5mm
This is commonly referred to as a mini-jack or a headphone jack. It is a 3.5mm plug that transfers audio only. There is a right and left audio channel on the plug which allows for stereo sound playback.

3.5mm AV Input
These plugs look similar to the common 3.5mm mini-jack, however they carry a third channel dedicated for video.

Optional
This means that an auxiliary input is possible, but only with the use of an optional accessory. These optional adapters will sometimes use the CD Changer port or other port on the back of a unit that might restrict the use of other expandability features. These accessories are typically sold separately.

Audio/Video outputs are typically used to connect an overhead monitor to an aftermarket stereo. This is the number of A/V outputs that the item has. These outputs are usually RCA Composite cables.

RCA Composite Outputs
These are your typical red, white, and yellow RCA composite cables that are common among devices with audio and video inputs. The red and white cables are dedicated for audio. The red cable is for the right channel and the white is for the left channel. The yellow cable is specifically for the video signal. Because this type of auxiliary cable contains 2 channels of audio, it will support stereo sound.

RCA outputs, commonly known as preamp outputs, allow you to connect one or sometimes multiple external amplifiers. An in-dash receiver will commonly have one, two or three sets of RCA outputs that can be used to connect external amplifiers and other components. One pair of RCA outputs will typically provide a full range signal that can be used for most subwoofer or speaker amplifiers. Two pairs of RCA outputs can typically be configured as four full range signals, or also as two full range and two subwoofer signals. Three sets of RCA outputs will almost always produce four speaker signals and two subwoofer signals for use with multiple amplifiers.
In order to retain a vehicle's factory steering wheel remote controls, a wired-remote input is needed on the aftermarket stereo.

If "Yes", then the aftermarket stereo is compatible with steering wheel remote controls. If an additional accessory is required for the steering wheel controls to work properly, a compatible piece will be listed.

Refers to the size of the speaker measured in inches. Every vehicle has standard application sizes. Please use our vehicle fitment guide for your vehicle's specific speaker sizes if you do not know them.
The number of individual drivers in a car speaker. Speakers with 2 drivers are known as a 2-way, and 3 drivers are known as a 3-way. Component systems are often referred to as "separates" because the tweeter is not attached to the midwoofer (main speaker driver) and mounts separately in a location such as a door post. Component systems typically come with an external crossover so you can easily adjust the high and low frequencies sent to both the midwoofer and the tweeter. Center channel speakers are great for those looking to have surround sound in their vehicle.
Refers to the diameter of the subwoofer, measured in inches.
Refers to the size of the tweeter. Typically, smaller tweeters produces less output with higher frequency response.
The load value (in ohms) that the speakers present to the amplifier per voice coil - the amount of resistance to the current flow. This is a key specification as subs wired in parallel or low impedances can create problems with your amplifier and potentially void all warranties. We encourage you to ask our support department prior to purchase if you do not understand which impedance level will suit your application best.
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.
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.

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.
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.
Dual voice coil subs have more wiring flexibility than single voice coils subs; however, single voice coil subwoofers provide easier hookup options for wiring multiple subwoofers in parallel or series. You may also run a dual voice coil (DVC) sub in parallel, series, or combination. A quad voice coil has four voice coils and is equal to two dual voice coil subwoofers as far as wiring goes.
This is the design of the subwoofer or the opening of the subwoofer enclosure. Each design has it's own benefits, whether it is a square, circle, or oval.

Round/Circle: This is the typical and common subwoofer design. They have a round cone and are a circle in design.

Square: These woofers are able to achieve a greater cone area in a smaller space. Because of the greater surface area, some square subwoofers will be louder than a round subwoofer of the same size.

The power/ground gauge numbers represents the main wire size of the amplifier kit.

Definitions are as follows:

Gauge (wire) - The diameter of a wire. The higher the number, the thinner the wire. Example: 4 gauge wire has more strands than 10 gauge wire.

AWG (American Wire Gauge) - A standard of the dimensional characteristics of wire used to conduct electrical current or signals. AWG is identical to the Brown and Sharpe (B & S) wire gauge.
Interconnect cables are required for amplifiers which are installed to the "RCA preamp low-level outputs" of a car stereo receiver. If your amplifier has high-level / speaker level inputs, then you do not need to purchase interconnects; however, interconnects offer a much higher quality sound when compared to speaker level inputs.
If speaker wire is included, the value will be "Yes" and if no wire is included, it will read "No".
This is the type of fuse holder that is included in the item.
This is the number of amplifiers that the amplifier kit can support. If you are are going to be powering more than one amplifier, make sure that the installation kit will support them.
The material that the wire is made of. Copper & aluminum are the most commonly used materials. OFC - Oxygen Free Copper is the ideal choice for wire material. Copper is a superior electrical conductor, & does not expand or contract with heat. CCA - Copper-Clad Aluminum is a suitable choice for lower powered or budget applications. The power transfer is not on par with OFC, but this material offers significant savings.
Since 1857, The AWG (American Wire Gauge) system has been the standard for measuring the diameter of wire. AWG standard is the measure of bare wire to find true gauge. Companies that do not follow AWG Standards include the thickness of the wire jacket which means the actual wire is not "True to Gauge". For the best performance from your amplifier wiring kit, make sure that the cable complies to the AWG standard.

FAQ Frequently asked questions in Parrot Bluetooth Receivers & Transmitters


Bluetooth Receivers & Transmitters Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Bluetooth receivers and transmitters are devices that enable wireless communication between audio sources and output devices, such as speakers, headphones, car stereos, and home audio systems. A Bluetooth transmitter connects to a non-Bluetooth audio source, like a TV or computer, and transmits audio wirelessly to Bluetooth-enabled devices. A Bluetooth receiver, on the other hand, connects to non-Bluetooth output devices, turning them into Bluetooth-enabled devices capable of receiving audio from Bluetooth sources.
Bluetooth receivers and transmitters utilize Bluetooth technology to establish a wireless connection between devices. A transmitter converts audio signals from a non-Bluetooth source into Bluetooth signals and sends them to compatible Bluetooth receivers. A receiver captures Bluetooth signals and converts them back into audio, which is then played through the connected output device. This technology eliminates the need for physical cables, allowing for convenient, tangle-free audio streaming.
Yes, a Bluetooth transmitter can be connected to your TV to wirelessly transmit audio to Bluetooth headphones or speakers. This is particularly useful for late-night TV watching or when you want to enjoy a show without disturbing others. Simply connect the transmitter to your TV's audio output, pair it with your Bluetooth headphones or speakers, and you can enjoy audio without the constraints of cables.
Absolutely, adding a Bluetooth receiver to your non-Bluetooth car stereo is a popular upgrade. A Bluetooth receiver connects to your car stereo's audio input and allows you to stream music and take calls from your smartphone without the need for auxiliary cables. This modernizes your car's audio capabilities and enhances your driving experience by providing wireless convenience.
Yes, Bluetooth receivers and transmitters are generally straightforward to set up. They come with user manuals that guide you through the pairing process and the necessary connections. For transmitters, you typically connect the transmitter to your audio source and follow the pairing instructions. Receivers require a similar process of connecting the device to your output equipment and initiating pairing. Many Bluetooth devices also offer automatic pairing after the initial setup, making it even more convenient for future use. If you encounter any difficulties, most manufacturers provide customer support to help troubleshoot and assist with the setup process.
