The Two Biggest Mistakes People Make with Their In-Car Stereo System



Have you ever tried to get a perfect sound set up in your car, but find that no matter what you do, you just cannot get it to sound right? If so, you're probably committing at least one of the mistakes outlined below. Understanding and addressing these problems can go a long way to helping you improve your sound system.

Mistake 1: Not Sound-Proofing the Car
This is probably the thing that will affect the quality of your music the most. Cars are incredibly noisy and this can interfere with sound quality in two key ways:

1. It can make it difficult to hear the sound of the music over the sound of the road and other road users.
2. It can cause the music to reverberate around the car. Because cars are made of metal, and metal is good at bouncing sound around, it will interfere with the way the music sounds.

This is a relatively easy thing to fix and it can make a lot of difference to the quality of your music. All you need to do is buy sound deadening material and put it in the foot wells and inside the doors. 



You can also attach it to any bare metals, but we would recommend using a fitter to do this, as the results may look shoddy if you try to do it yourself. Our local car audio centre Ilford supplies sound deadening material, and they may even offer a fitting service.

Mistake 2: Keeping the Factory-Fit Speakers
Factory-fit head units are generally OK, but the speakers are invariably rubbish. Unless you're buying a car that's known for its audio (Audi, BMW, and VW), you should always change the speakers. The manufactures care very little about the stereo system because it’s not a particularly strong selling point. Replacing them – even for relatively cheap speakers – will make the world of difference.

If you would like to buy sound deadening material or some new speakers for your car, as well as other in-car audio equipment, then please visit https://www.incarmusic.co.uk/.
