Lets face it, just because you want to listen to the Spice Girls (and we know you do) does not mean that everyone on your block wants to hear it. That is why it's important to know how to suppress noise when in your car. There are a few different ways to do this. Many people say, “well it's my system, and if I want to blast the crap out of it, then it's my given right to.” However, it's not your right anymore. Cops are starting to give tickets in America for blasting our systems. They are calling it disturbing the peace, and I guess it's easy to see where they are getting that from.
First, we are going to start off with something that you should already know. If you want to suppress noise in your car, then do not turn it up so loud. It's that simple people. Although the whole reason why you got that car audio system may have been to scare your parents, it does not mean that you should wake them up, as well as everyone else in your block, at 2:00 in the morning. So if you do not want to get in trouble for your music, the best thing to do is to turn it down when you get around homes. Of course, even then, sometimes you forget, and that is why there are some things that can help you suppress noise in your car. First, is an automatic volume button. Whenever we are riding down the road we tend to turn the radio up loud so we can hear it over the air passing by the car. However, as we slow down, we forget to turn down the music and others can hear it. An automatic volume button turns down the music as soon as you slow down in speed.
Another way to suppress the noise in your car is to get more insulation put in your car. Most people put this in their car to help it not vibrate the car as much. However, what most people do not know is that this can help direct the sound of the speakers to the inside of the car and not the outside. This can help you not have to turn it up so loud, because it's already going to sound louder in the car, making it less noisy outside. In the end, however, it's all going to come down to if you have a sub or not. If you have a sub, then depending on how loud you have it turned up is going to make it a lot louder. In the end, if you want to suppress noise, then all you have to do is turn down your sub. You can do this on your CD player or you can do it on the sub itself.
All in all, if you want to keep the noise down in your car, then just use your common sense. There is no way that you are going to make anyone outside your car hear your loud music. When all is said and done, treat people the way that you want to be treated. However, people are going to have to know that if they leave their houses, they are going to hear loud music, and you can just tell them thanks for coming out. However, they should not have to listen to your music inside their houses. We have to meet each other halfway.
Tune Your Speakers For Maximum Productivity
Purchasing car speakers may be an important decision to make but later the tuning of those speakers is also very important. If the settings of the newly installed car speakers are not up to its best then you may be missing out on all the best output of your speakers. Once you have chosen either a component system or a full-range system then make sure you tune up its setting with the help of a professional or yourself by following the guide book. As car speakers are bought for maximum sound output but setting it wrong whether it is the location of the speakers or the settings, it can lower the productivity.
You have the brand new car speakers with you and now its time to install and tune them. A smart choice of settings can maximize the output of sound from your car speakers. You can make each penny worth it by tuning your speakers by following the guidebook you get along with the brand new set or by asking the help of professional car speaker’s installers. For basic tuning that can affect your sound output are as follows:
The selection of component speakers will pay off at this stage when it comes to tuning the car speakers. As component speakers come with separate tweeters, crossovers and woofers the location to set them up is mobile which allows you to experiment different locations and to pick which is the best place for each one of them. The tweeters are the major equipment in the car speakers that can allow maximum and good quality sound output. As they are free from other components therefore test which position is the best for them before installing them. The time spent will be worth it if you find the perfect location and setting for these tweeters that will give an output of realistic productivity.
Due to the preference given to component speakers, Full-range speakers are also coming with tweeters that are movable for better result. Crossovers in car speakers have settings that can compliment the sound coming out of the tweeters. The same technique should be used for crossovers before installing them permanently. Try out with different locations with the same setting to find out where it plays best. To recheck these settings listen to your favorite CD in high volume to avoid any irritating noise or overly bright output by trusting your ears.
Once the front speakers are set up perfectly then focus on the rear ones. These act like the backstage music in car speakers which is as important as the front ones. The sound output should be at the same time without overlapping each other. Ironically many car speaker experts suggest keeping your rear speaker’s settings so that you can hardly notice that they are there. The reason is still not clear to me but I believe it is due to the fact that if the rear speakers make a lot of sound it steals the focus from the front speakers which ruin the image of the stereo sound system. Most of the sound production should be done from the front speakers while the rear speakers are just there for support.
Then your subwoofer comes which always goes in the trunk or under the back seats. To avoid vibrations made by these subwoofers or lessening the road noises, products like Dynamat are used to reduce the vibrations in a car. A foam perplex is also installed which works dually by keeping your car speakers away from dirt, dust and maximizing speaker life while improving sound and bass results.

Car Amplifier Installation Tips
First of all, we are going to start off by stating the facts first. If you do not know how to install a normal car speaker, or you have never done it before, then you might as well get someone else to install your amplifier. It's as simple as that. Although they are not to hard to do, it's going to be a lot harder than just installing a speaker. With that being said, we can go on and start talking about some of the tips to get your amplifiers up and running in no time. So get ready and tie your shirt up, because it's going to be a bumpy ride if you do not know what you are doing.
First things first, be sure you read the instructions that come with your amplifier. Be sure you know what is hooking up to what. Here is your first tip: know where you are going to install the AMP before you get started. Do not start mounting your AMP anywhere until you know for sure that is where you want it. You need to make sure that your cords are going to all reach and that everything is going to hook up nicely. After that, you will be able to start installing your amplifier. Also, keep in mind that your amplifier is going to have to hook up to your battery. Unless you want that cord to just run right from the battery to the amplifier, you are going to have to make sure you have extra cord so that you can tuck it away somewhere. This way you will not see the cord as it runs through the body of your car. Whenever you are installing an amplifier, remember that there is nothing good or bad, but thinking can make it so.
This means, do not over think what you are trying to do. Getting your amplifier up and running is not as hard as it sounds. It is going to run from your battery to your amplifier. Then your speakers are all going to hook up to your amplifier. Of course, if you are going to be installing your own amplifier, do not be afraid to ask questions. It's better to ask questions and be called an idiot than it would be to make a big mistake whenever you are hooking up your AMP. This is not something that you are going to want to mess up, because they do cost a lot of money.
Last, but not least, if you are going to hook it up yourself, and you do not know what you are doing and mess something up, do not be sad if someone makes fun of you. It's going to happen. You just have to remember that if you are going to do this by yourself, and not let people help you, then you have a big job on your hands. So if people do not want to help you when you need it, you can not be upset. A man who lives in a glass house should not throw stones. Of course, on the same note, if a man lives in a glass house, he should probably change in the basement. The point I am getting at is that it can be a little hard to install one of these things if you have never done it. So if it's your first time, you should not go into this alone. You are just going to end up wishing that you had asked for help in the first place.
