Where can I get a adaptor for my 2 channel car amplifier?

I have a 2 channel amplifier and need it to be converted to 4 channels. Where can i buy an adaptor for that.

It depends on what "ohm stable" the amplifier is. If the amp is "2 ohm stable" that means you can wire 2 speakers to one pair of terminals if those speakers are 4 ohm speakers, because the "effective" impedance will be 2 ohms at the amp in that case. If the speakers are 8 ohms impedance, then likewise, wiring them both to the same terminals will yield a 4 ohm impedance to the amp. Most amps are rated at least 4 ohm stable, some down to 1 ohm stable.

So it really depends on the amp and what impedance the speakers are. However, if you have a pair of 4 ohm speakers, and you wire them in parallel to the same speaker terminal pair, and if the amp is only a regular "4 ohm stable" amp, then you risk burning up the amp because the amp will see 2 ohms, and will try to push a lot more power through the speakers than it is capable of.

  1. Not possible… Spliting the channels for 4 outputs is just a sin… It will sound really crappy or you wont have enuff power
