What Speakers are Best?
When upgrading the audio system in a classic car, installing a Watt 2-channel Bluetooth amplifier allows you to enjoy modern sound quality while maintaining the car’s classic looks. Choosing the right speakers helps achieve well-rounded, high-quality sound. Here’s a guide to help you find the best speakers to pair with your Watt 2-channel Bluetooth amplifier, balancing sound clarity, efficiency, and ease of installation.
The first thing to consider when selecting speakers for your classic car is sensitivity. High-sensitivity speakers (around 88-90 dB or higher) are ideal for systems where you’re working with moderate power, as they deliver more sound per watt, making the most of your amplifier’s output. This ensures you’ll have plenty of volume and clarity without needing a high-powered setup.
Impedance is another key factor for optimising sound quality and system compatibility. The Watt 2-channel amplifier works best with 4-ohm speakers to ensure efficient performance. With this impedance, the Watt amplifier and speakers can work together smoothly, reducing strain on the system and helping to produce clear, distortion-free audio.
For a straightforward and effective setup, full-range speakers, just like the Jaycar 6.5” Kevlar speakers above, are an excellent choice. These speakers combine both the woofer and tweeter in a single unit, providing a balanced mix of high and low frequencies without requiring complex installation. Full-range speakers are especially suited to classic cars, as they often fit directly into existing speaker slots, preserving the car’s original look. With a simple setup, you’ll enjoy a well-rounded sound without making significant modifications to your vehicle’s interior.
When selecting speakers for your classic car, size and placement are essential considerations. Many classic cars have limited interior space, so it’s best to choose speakers that fit without extensive modification. Common sizes like 4x6, 5.25, or 6.5 inches are typically compatible with classic car setups and offer an ideal balance between sound quality and ease of installation. Positioning the speakers in the front doors or kick panels allows sound to project more directly toward the driver and passengers, creating an immersive audio experience. Adding rear speakers can enhance sound distribution, but this may depend on the car’s layout and your preferences for maintaining its original style.
In summary, choosing the Watt 2-channel Bluetooth amplifier can improve your driving experience without compromising your classic vehicle’s aesthetic. High-sensitivity speakers with matching 4 ohm impedance will provide clear, balanced sound. Whether you’re looking for a simple setup or a more refined audio experience make sure you select a set of speakers that complements your car’s classic interior. Purchasing period correct 70’s and 80’s speakers, just like the TS-X15’s above, would work great but just know that with anything old they might need rebuilding. Our go to for speakers is a reputable stereo store to suss out all the brands/styles or jump on eBay to find a vintage pair.
