Is YOUR Car Stereo
LOUD ENOUGH?
For most people, the factory stereo will do just fine, but if you want to FEEL your music a serious upgrade is needed.
Why not just replace the factory speakers?
In most cars, you are limited to the size and type of speaker you can install in the factory location.
Smaller size speakers do not produce the low notes that your system is lacking.
Factory replacement type speakers have limited power handling capabilities and will fail to bring you the excitement you need.
My factory stereo is REALLY LOUD
- This may be true, but what are you hearing?
- In most cases, when you turn up the volume to the point where it is ‘loud’ you are only hearing the tweeters, or high-frequency sounds.
- This is extremely unpleasant to the human ear and makes you turn the volume down.
- Very loud, high-pitch music is only good for one guy…
- In most cases, when you turn up the volume to the point where it is ‘loud’ you are only hearing the tweeters, or high-frequency sounds.

How Loud Does my Stereo Need to Be?
In order to hear your music, your stereo needs to be louder than the noise around you.
- A slow drive to work: 60-70 dB
- Highway driving (Windows Closed): 70-80 dB
- Highway driving (Windows Open): 80-90 dB

Your Car Stereo Sucks
The speakers that came with your car are terrible… Really.
“But my car has the ‘PREMIUM’ Bose/Harman Kardon/JBL/Bang & Olufsen system in my vehicle and it sounds amazing!”
No, it doesn’t. You only think that because you have never heard a professional car stereo.
It’s not the fault of the company that designed your car, they provided a ‘premium’ sound system that was able to get you to spend an extra $1000 for $50 worth of extra speakers.
“But there are 19 speakers and 900 Watts of power!”
Let’s break that down:
- 19 speakers? Where are they? I’m not doubting they are there, but you only have 2 ears.
- Surround sound? Great for movies, but not car audio. Have you ever listened to a song and thought, “man, it sounds like the guitarist is right behind me!”?
- 900 Watts? First, find the 75 Amp fuse that protects a 900 Watt amplifier. Assuming that it is 900W max; at max volume, sending 900 watts to 19 speakers means that each speaker will receive 47 watts, best case. With a high-efficiency speaker (90dB) you can only expect 106dB.
