Active music lovers produce a replacement of the radio not once, for various reasons. Sometimes the radio tape recorder simply fails, sometimes moral aging takes place, and sometimes the car owner just wants to get high-quality sound. And if the car is purchased in the cabin from scratch, each "option" of the car's filling costs ten thousand rubles. If you do not want to overpay for the car, you have the right to purchase a car without car radio, and then, already yourself, to purchase and install the model of the radio, which is quite suitable. But for each job in the car service you have to pay a considerable amount, and if you are not a complete "boots", you can install a new radio tape recorder with your own handles. And how to install, will help you this article. Just deal with all the wires at the exit from the radio and decide on the plugs.

Installation of radio tape recorder, the magnetic of which format is present in the automotive market

Depending on the brand of the car, the format of the car machine is also selected. European automakers produce cars with single-block or one-bed (1DIN) car radio.

Japan's automakers, Korea and USA are focused on the production of a double-block format magnetol (2DIN).

Naturally, since in Russia there are many cars produced by Japan and Korea, two-block radio tape recorders have become quite in demand.

The motorists fell in love of the 2DIN radio tape recorder due to the extended size of the case, which allows the installation of additional multimedia functions.

Installation of the radio, ISO plugs

During the production of the radio, there is an international ISO standard.

Therefore, if you do not want breakdowns of your music installation, do not use the automotive magnetic wiring of incorporated international standards.

Modern firms manufacturers Magnittol equip all adapters of radio tape recorders ISO.

Each car brand uses its own plugs to create a transition from the original pad to the international standard, the release of adapters has been established.

Adapters have a large assortment and you can find the desired for any occasion.

If there is a regular wiring in the car, it facilitates the operation on the connection of the radio and removes all the difficulties.

Installation of the radio, the easiest way to install a car machine

Car enthusiasts know that the easiest way to connect the car radio is trimming the wires from the plug of your radio or machine wiring.

Using the tape, you need to simply connect the wires according to the color of these wires.

The method is of course not aesthetic, all "Toporn" and the healer itself is not a reliable retainer when oscillations of the outdoor temperature - this can lead to a short circuit.

If you decide to take advantage of this method, we advise you to apply a heat shrinking tube or clamping terminals - this method is more reliable. If you do not like noisy music and are not going to constantly change the radio tape recorder, you can stop on it.

But if you love changes and know that in the future you will change the radio, in which case, you should work well once and install ISO contacts.

Upon the next replacement, you just pull out the old radio tape recorder, disconnecting the plugs, connect the plugs to the new radio and install it in the niche.

Installation of the radio, the basics of connection with your own hands

Any equipment is running from the source of electricity.

Car battery is a source of electricity, but at the same time it represents a danger to radio tape recorder and speakers.

If you confuse plus and minus radio tape recorder, confuse the speakers terminal - you can destroy the equipment.

But at the same time, you must be connected from the battery and not from the cigarette lighter or the ignition lock.

If you want to get a clean sound and good power of musical equipment, you must connect to the battery.

An important point is the use of short wires.

Connecting plus use a multicore copper wire whose cross section is at least 4 mm2.

The positive battery wire should be 10-20 A fuse, the fuse must be well insulated and installed from the battery terminal at least 40 cm.

Sometimes the manufacturer sets the fuse independently.

The minus wire should also be minimally short.

Why do you pay attention to the length of the wires?

And because the short wire can be laid neatly, without twisting and prevent intersections with other consumers.

To the radio itself, the wires are connected after the connection to the speakers occurred.

In order to prevent the bare battery with a bare touch of the plus wire, this wire should be well isolated until you can power the automagnet with the plus wire.

Installing the radio how to connect speakers

A very important point is to connect speakers to the corresponding phases.

The dynamics of the terminal is marked, a wide terminal is a plus, and a narrow is minus.

If in the old car there are speakers without labeling terminals, the label can be determined using a conventional battery.

The dynamics terminals are joined to the plus and minus batteries and if you guessed, the diffuser movement will occur, if not guess, the diffuser moves inside.

Remember, if you incorrectly connect the speaker phases, you will lose 80% of sound quality, and then speaker and radio tape recorder can be broken.

The most common error leading to the loss of power speakers and sound quality is the wrong phasing of the speakers.

If there are no batteries at hand, turn on the radio at full power, removing the sound to one speaker, then distribute the sound on both columns, equally, thus output the balance by 0.

If, after these actions, the sound power and low frequencies intensified, your actions are correct.

And if the changes did not happen - change the polarity.

Spend the same work on the rear and side pair of speakers.

Of course, if the elephant has come to the ear and you do not see any difference in the sound, it's not important for you, leave everything as it is.

Installing the radio how to choose wires

Acoustic wires also have their markings.

The positive wires have a monophonic color, and the minus wires have the same color plus a black bar.

It means that the wire of a monophonic color is connected to a wide dynamics terminal, and the wire with a black strip is suitable for a narrow dynamics terminal.

The minus wire for a pair of speakers of the speaker system of the side or from the front, with the system power up to 20 W, can be common.

And if the system has a power of 30 W. And more on every channel, each channel has its own plus and minus.

It is forbidden to confuse and change the wires of the wire.

It is forbidden to remove minus on the car body for grounding the speaker.

Such a procedure leads to the loss of power and distortion of sound.

If the radio has a small power and manual setting, there may be two or four acoustic wires with a plus and not one wire with a minus.

In this case, for all speakers, minus commutes with the main minus wire of the radio, it must be displayed on the car body or the minus battery terminal.

Almost all speakers, when buying, have connective wires. But these wires are verification and not assembly.

Since the cross section of these wires is very small, not higher than 0.5 mm2, it is not capable of transmitting the speakers with all the power without loss.

Such wires can only be used for the dynamics of the power of which are not higher than 20 W, and the diameter of the speakers is not more than 13 cm. Such speakers can only create auxiliary acoustics.

Powerful speakers from 40 to 100 W, having a dynamics diameter of more than 16 cm. Connect with special acoustic wires.

Wires are performed from oxygen-free copper and cross-section of them from 1 to 4 mm2.

On such wires there are arrows showing the correct direction from the car radio to the dynamics and the direction of the copper beam, significantly affect the sound.

Installation of the radio, which isolation should be on the wires

High-quality isolation provides uninterrupted reliable operation.

Insulation on modern wires should be silicone, silicone is not subject to change under the action of outer temperatures.

To have high-quality sound, in addition to high-quality isolation is not allowed:

• wire spin (therefore wires must be as short as possible);
• it is impossible to label the wires near the wires of other consumers;
• wires should not be drowning on each other;
• unacceptable hiding wires or cargo in the trunk;
• in the doors of the wire must be stretched through a hard cambrick.

Installing the radio how to position the speakers

Before connecting the radio, install the rear main speakers. The short axis of the dynamics should be directed on the salon diagonal.

The rear left axis is heading for the passenger and the right on the driver.

If the speakers in the trunk, do not block the sound with boxes and drawers. Twitters position on the windshield rack, the sound from the driver's tweeter should go to the passenger.

The sound of the passenger tweeter should go to the driver.
