Things to know about 1-channel amplifiers

Finding the right amplifier for your car sound system is not always easy. However, if you want to enjoy the best sound, a perfect power amplifier is essential. We offer everything your heart desires in the Carhifi range and ensure that every Carhifi set ultimately has the right car amplifier with enough power.

The 1-channel amplifiers are usually Class-D digital amplifiers. This is due to the fact that there is not an unlimited amount of current in the car, but high power is required to drive car subwoofers. The circuit should therefore be correspondingly efficient in order to maintain stability even at low impedances. A practical addition to our 1-channel amplifiers: they usually come with a bass remote control so that the bass can be controlled directly from the driver's seat.

Special purpose for 1-channel amplifier

A 1-channel amplifier, also known as a monoblock amplifier, is installed specifically to drive a car subwoofer. Good mono amplifiers usually have a high damping factor and more power directly to the subwoofer. The damping factor ensures improved control of the subwoofer and a tight bass. A 1-channel power amplifier is therefore designed specifically for a subwoofer to maximize its performance and ensure harmonious bass.

The subwoofer and 1-channel amplifier should be well matched in order to achieve optimum results. As mentioned, the impedance and the power are decisive. So if the subwoofer has an impedance of 2 ohms, the mono amplifier should also be capable of 2 ohms. These monoblock amplifiers are generally used in the automotive sector, but certain models are also often used for boats.

What 1-channel amplifier technologies are available?

There are countless 1-channel amplifiers with a wide variety of technologies on the car hi-fi market. It is always important to find the best one for your needs in order to get the maximum sound quality out of your car sound system. In addition to their appearance, they also differ in terms of functionality and performance.

For example, there are 1-channel amplifiers with low-pass filters that are able to eliminate unwanted high bass tones if the radio does not offer sufficient setting options. If a particularly clear sound is desired, this makes perfect sense.

The power amplifiers also differ in terms of different connections, such as cinch or high level. Amplifiers are also available that transmit the audio content to the 1-channel power amplifier via Bluetooth, thus avoiding too many cables. However, these are rather rare and are generally much more expensive than devices with cables.

Different ventilation systems also ensure different designs and sizes of power amplifiers. This should be particularly taken into account if there is little space for the device in the car anyway, or if several power amplifiers are to be installed.

1-channel amplifier - Top Brands

Buying 1-channel power amplifiers online is cheap no longer a problem. Whether used or new, you can always find a suitable appliance. But also in the Carhifi area, it is worth finding out about the offers on the market in order to ultimately achieve a satisfactory result. We have therefore listed the Top brands for 1-channel amplifiers summarized to provide an overview, and the best price-performance ratio for mono amplifiers guarantee.
