mono amplifiers and multi-channel amplifiers
Subwoofers in particular work with amplifiers, that is clear, since subwoofers are the most power-hungry components in hi-fi systems and the radio power is not sufficient here. In practice, this means that several
subwoofer connected to only one mono amplifier and can be connected in series or parallel
. The multi-channel amplifiers, however, which are mainly also used as
four-channel amplifier are mainly used for the
speaker set in the front It is a good idea to combine a monoblock amplifier with a four-channel amplifier on the front. With our popular 4-channel amplifiers we can offer you absolute top models in different price ranges: For those on a tight budget, the
"POWERBOX400.1M-V7" exactly right. The
"QUATTRO PLUS" serves the middle price segment, but is impressive. The
"RIOT 3200V2 SE" The Special Edition is a little more expensive, but definitely worth the money. Which is your favorite?
Is a mono amplifier necessary in the car?
The fact is that although every car radio has an amplifier, it does not provide sufficient power. Basically, it can be assumed that the more powerful the amplifier(s) are, the more powerful the speakers can be driven with them and the louder it can theoretically be. When buying a car, the car radio and the performance of the integrated amplifier are not necessarily decisive factors. There are therefore
high-quality mono amplifiers and multi-channel amplifiers on the aftermarket to increase the sound performance of the car's interior. The original car battery can barely handle the increased power consumption, especially when we're talking about power outputs of 1000 watts or more. The result is a car battery that discharges faster than average, in the worst case the new loudspeaker would burn out, so you should think about an additional battery at around 1000 watts at the latest. The amplifiers are therefore a must for proper sound production. The mono amplifier is easy to handle and user-friendly. Perfectly matched to use with a subwoofer. If you want to drive a front or rear system properly, opt for the multi-channel amplifier.
The multi-channel amplifier – for demanding users
The multi-channel amplifiers usually have between 2 and 6 channels. As already mentioned: The
4-channel amplifier are the most common models. The more channels available, the more different speakers can be connected.
The amplifiers are available in different classes
Class A : The models in this category are characterized by their excellent sound output. However, these models are not particularly outstanding in terms of power consumption. The amplifiers generate a lot of heat at the expense of the car battery.
Class B scores with less heat consumption. These amplifiers were developed to use only half of the output power. This means that two outputs are not used with the available power, but the outputs are simply switched. The effect is optimal use of the power. However, there is a risk that the sound will be distorted.
Class A/B is of course optimal, the advantages of classes A and B combine and reinforce each other here. Distortions do not occur as easily. Particularly high-quality devices have the modern technology to prevent overheating.
Class D : The amplifiers focus on the efficiency of electronic signals. They are considered to be up to 90% efficient. The amplifiers themselves are remarkably small and produce minimal heat. Distortion may occur when working with higher frequencies. However, the audio quality itself is brilliant, especially in the bass range.
Amplifier - Our professional tip:
Whether a
mono amplifier or a multi-channel amplifier can be installed, the sound is significantly stronger, more powerful and clearer. Recommended products from well-known manufacturers such as STEG, Ground Zero, Audio System, B2 Audio etc. ensure the right volume and significantly improved sound quality.

Conclusion
With a high-quality mono amplifier for the subwoofer and the
multi-channel amplifier for the speaker set you can enjoy a unique music experience. The volume is right, the bass is reproduced accordingly deep. The extensive selection of different amplifiers allows individual purchase decisions to be made taking into account the respective car type and car radio. For many users, a good,
high-quality mono amplifier , simply to support the factory system with bass using a new subwoofer in the trunk.
