Incar Audio Systems

My car audio system is broken. About an year ago, first the cassette player stopped working. Actually, there was no mechanical problem (I could play/rewind/ff the cassette) but when the cassette played, no other sound except the noise hum could be heard. At that time, the AM/FM radio was still working. However, even that went down that path about six months ago. Now I hear nothing but the noisy BRRR when I turn on either the radio or the cassette player. What could have gone wrong? Any easy fix that I could do myself to solve this problem.

I’m trying to get a better car audio system than my previous, but I can’t remember whether to get 2 ohms or 4- Also, do you know what 2 or 4 ohms can handle in terms of watts from an amplifier…without starting a fire in my trunk….

I have been searching the net for information over car audio systems only to have every site contradict the other about the "right" way to do a car audio set up

I have an alpine pdx 1.1000 amp with two alpine type r 10′ subs

Some sites claim you need a new alternator, others claim adding batteries or capacitors–I want to choose the right route with my car audio system without having to waste hard earned money on things I don’t need.

any suggestions?

I have a 2008 Dodge Charger SE and i was wondering what kind of car audio system I should get? Something not too expensive but sounds really good. I heard Alpine and Kicker systems were the best. Please help me. Thanks

I am about to buy a car audio system. ( my first) and was wondering if i needed to break it in before i could turn it up real loud, and how long, if so. If you have a website to help me with this, please send it to me, or post it. Thanks.
