amplifier

Say I have an amp that has X amount of power. The speakers can't actually handle that power but I still want to use the amp. How is an amp properly adjusted to limit the output to the speaker's capabilities?

I've posted about this topic a couple times already, but I have yet to find a solution. I installed an after market amplifier to power my mids and highs. I already have a sub amp that isn't having the same issues. My stereo is a JVC KW-M780BT. The amplifier powering the whine is a Infinity...

I have bought a car with a very professionally installed Kenwood system from the early 2000s I assume. The issue i'm facing is in the Kenwood KAC-8404 Amplifier. For some reason the A-channel only output on the right speaker. The mono switch forces audio to the left channel and so there is no...
