It is difficult to imagine a modern car without musical accompaniment. Even the basic equipment of modern cars has a built-in radio with speakers. In order to choose a good radio tape recorder, you need to know their features.
Instructions
Step 1
First, decide what type of radio you need. CD-recorders together with an mp3-decoder allow playing songs of many formats. Nowadays, radio tape recorders that allow you to play video are very popular. Choose a radio tape recorder from trusted manufacturers such as Sony, Kenwood, Pioner, Mystery. You should not buy the cheapest model, because it is better to overpay, but enjoy good sound for a long time.
Step 2
Take a close look at what output power the radio has. It is the sum of the nominal and maximum power. Remember, at rated power, the device will work. Therefore, choose the device precisely for this indicator. The higher the value of this characteristic, the better the sound quality you will hear.
Step 3
Look at the connector type of your car radio. Most modern audio systems use an ISO connector. This is a special connector that is split into two parts. The first part contains the wires through which power is supplied, and the other contains the wires to which the speakers are connected.
Step 4
Pay attention to the additional inputs on the radio panel. Remember, if you need CD playback, USB-connector and other informative details, then look for a radio tape recorder with these functions. Also, look at the external design of the front panel - after all, your satisfaction with the purchase depends on its convenience and beauty.
Step 5
Check for an FM tuner that should provide the full range of the desired frequencies. See what additional functions this tuner has, whether it can automatically search for waves and change the sensitivity of the receiver. A nice addition will be the RDS function, which allows you to display information transmitted by the radio station, for example, the name of the sounding song and much more.
