Car audio modification parts and their pros and cons

　For an ordinary family car, the modification cost of tens of thousands of yuan is obviously not acceptable to every car owner. At this time, a simple and practical sound improvement program becomes approachable.

　　If you search the current mainstream economical in-car audio improvement methods on the market, you will find that they are mainly concentrated in the following categories: replacement of the CD host, installation of MP3 players, replacement of MD heads, external MP3 converters, improved speakers, etc. The investment varies from tens of yuan to hundreds of yuan.

　　Improve CD host

　　Nowadays, more and more cars have been equipped with CD host before leaving the factory. However, in the ranks of low-end cars, cassette heads still occupy a considerable share. Here, we will introduce a host improvement plan for less than one thousand yuan for those car owners who are not satisfied with their car's audio system. If the speaker effect of your car is reasonable, you can consider replacing it with an Alpine CDE-9841 head, which is probably priced at around 930 yuan on the market.

　　Advantages: It can completely change the sound effect of the car, and the display panel of the machine head is exquisitely crafted. At present, the sound quality of the machine head at this price is also considered top quality.

　　Disadvantages: In addition to playing CD, there is no other function.

　　Install MP3 player

　　If you count the most popular music playback equipment right now, it's the compact and flexible MP3 player. Due to its small size and large capacity (a 256M MP3 can hold at least nearly a hundred high-quality songs), it can also play and edit songs according to your own habits, so it can be regarded as the hottest music gadget at present. In fact, it’s not difficult to get the MP3 in your pocket into the car. At present, many car audio manufacturers in China have introduced car CD hosts that can directly connect to MP3. You only need to go to a professional audio refitting shop to replace a new set of new models. The audio equipment of the car can easily accept MP3. For example, there is a camera head called GoRun 6110 on the market. The market price is around 950 yuan. It is an all-around car music player that is compatible with U disk, MP3 player, SD/MMC card, CD disc, and MP3 format. CD, even i-POD can take it all.

　　Advantages: It greatly improves the audio convenience of the car.

　　Disadvantages: The sound quality is naturally worse when there are more functions, and the line modification is more troublesome, so you need to go to a professionally qualified audio store for modification.

       Replace MD head

　　For those car owners who like to make some movement by themselves, there is nothing more suitable for them than a set of car MDs. MD is a digital recording format CD that enjoys high-quality repetitive recording, which greatly facilitates the compilation of personal music and other special purposes.

　　Advantages: Recorded music, meetings, classroom records, live music, etc. can be played in the car in time, and all the favorite songs can be edited on an MD disc and enjoy the digital sound quality.

　　Disadvantages: High price, only suitable for a few enthusiasts

　　Install MP3 converter

　　For consumers who have both an MP3 player and a CD head installed, it is the owner's greatest wish to "connect" the two. Don't worry, some people have seen the huge market in this area, so a kind of in-car audio converter (also called a receiver) called MP3 came into being. Its working principle is to convert the MP3 sound source into an FM signal, and then receive it through the radio of the host in the car. Although the sound quality is not as good as the MP3 live broadcast, it is no longer necessary to modify the wiring in the car.

　　Advantages: small investment. It only takes tens of yuan to convert from MP3 to in-car audio.

　　Disadvantages: poor sound quality. The effect is similar to listening to the radio.

　　Speaker improvements

　　For those sound systems that have been well matched to the original car, car owners don’t have to toss about electronic equipment anymore. If you only want to improve the sound quality in a targeted manner, you can selectively replace some of the speakers in the car or install a power amplifier. However, you need to go to a professional audio store to tailor your car to suit your needs.

　　If the car owner is a fan of popular music, a pair of 6×9 woofers is very necessary. Generally speaking, the price of 6×9-inch speakers with the reasonable sound quality on the market is about 500 yuan/pair. If you are a car owner who prefers rock music, you can also install a subwoofer, which can be done for about 300 yuan and the change is quite big.

　　Advantages: low investment and obvious results.

　　Disadvantages: After all, it has not been matched by the system, so there will be concerned about stability in use.

　　In short, the audio modification in the car varies from person to person and money, and sometimes a small amount of money can bring big changes.
