Made some progress on my amp install yesterday but had forgotten to get any supply cable.

Took a wasted journey to Halfords where they wanted £6.99 a metre for suitable cable  :o

They had amp wiring kits for 30 quid but only with a 5 metre cable length. Not enough to get from the battery to the opposite side of the boot, methinks.

Then I remembered this place, who I've used in the past:

6mm thinwall at 89p / metre should do the job nicely.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Which 4 channel amp?
« on: 05 March 2007, 23:35:56 »
Hi All,

Thinking about getting a 4 channel amp to use with my CDR2006. Basically I don't mind the sound quality or the features of the CDR2006, the factory speakers seem adequate and I don't really want to change the head unit and draw attention to a tasty ICE install. My only complaint is that the CDR2006 gets a bit ragged at high volume levels so I'm looking to fit a 4 channel amp to drive, initially at least, the standard speakers.

40 or 50 watts RMS is probably adequate, and all the standard speakers will likely take. Seems like the Alpine MRP-F242, JVC KS-AX3500, FLI Audio Loaded 800s and similar would do the job.

Anybody got any experiences of amps around this level (just sub 100 quid for the above, although I could go higher if worth it)?

I guess I'm going to have to use speaker level inputs although I might have a poke around in the CDR2006 and see if I can bring out some line level signals.

Also, I remember some discussion about the switching signal from the CDR2006 being a bit tricky to interface to an amp. Something about loading this line causing problems with the MID / steering wheel control illumination. Any experiences here? I'm an electronics engineer so I can always fabricate something to link the two, just wondered what the issues are?

Thanks In Advance

Kevin

It's not just the two large radiator fans slowing down, is it? They run when the air con is active.
