To Amp or not to amp
Understandably, I got fed up with the crappy stock stereo and have now upgraded.
I have:
HU Alpine CDA-9831R
Fronts: Velocity 6.5 components
Rears: Rockford Fosgate T152C
this is a vast improvement over the stock system, but I am still not entirely satisfied. I find that when I turn the volume up above 23 (out of a max of 35) the sound starts to distort.
The HU is 4x50 watts so the speakers should cope alright with this.
Will the distortion be cured by the addition of an amplifier? What difference will this make?
