Help on car stereos designed for 4 speakers...I only have 2 :-(
Hi
I am new to here, hope I am in the right place!! Anyhow the thing is I bought a car stereo with cd player etc for my partner and it is only when I have read manual it states it is not to be used with 2 spekers and only with 4. My partner has a van which only has 2 speakers.......is there any way round it? or is it not looking good for car stereo on 2 speakers.?? Any insight/help will be appreciated. Thankyou |

Thankyou Your stereo has 4 speakers, front left, front right, rear left, rear right. You have a few options. 1: Use only front left and front right, not using the rear channels won't harm anything. Obviously you won't be able to use the fader. 2. Add 2 speakers mounted in an external box. 3. Connect the rear channels to an external amp for a subwoofer. Good luck |

Hi
Thanks for that. Think the best option would be to add 2 more speakers, as it would be a shame to send the stereo back as it was a good price. cheers |

Running only one pair of outputs on two speakers shouldn't be an issue on any of them, so I find their warning somewhat puzzling. What brand/model deck is this? --- avast!

I remember about 15 or so years back we were installing AudioVox
stuff, they had instructions that said something like "use only with 4 speakers connected" , our tech checked them out and found no reason why they cant work with just 2 speakers. We used them as 2 spk decks and never got one back, not for a fault related to that anyway. Mike On 14 Feb 2006 10:30:47 -0800, "cms" wrote: Hi I am new to here, hope I am in the right place!!
