How does a car stereo system work?

Would car audio speakers work on a home stereo system?

  • Answer:

    You will need to make sure your home stereo unit can handle the lower impedance of most car speakers. The typical car speaker is four ohms and most home receivers are designed for eight ohms. You would either need a receiver capable of driving four ohms or you would need to wire a pair of identical drivers in series to get eight ohms.
