How we help you shop for car A/V

When you select your vehicle on our site, you’ll be able
to shop from filtered lists of the products, such as receivers and speakers, that
we know fit or work with your vehicle. You’ll also be able to find more ”universal“
products, like amplifiers and subwoofers, that can be installed in just about any
vehicle.

Look for these symbols when you’re shopping

A green check means that the product will fit into your vehicle’s factory openings without the need for any modifications.

A yellow warning triangle indicates that the product will fit if you make a minor modification, such as trimming plastic in the dash or drilling new holes for speakers in your door panels.

A red caution sign means that a product is larger than one or more dimensions of the factory mounting location and will not fit. For speakers, the key dimensions include more than just cone size.

Pretty much every car on the road these days has a factory stereo. And pretty much every audiophile wants better sound than the factory stereo system can produce. At Crutchfield, we want to help you get the best sound possible in your ride and we’ve spent over four decades doing the research you need to get the stereo equipment that’s right for your ride.

We’ve disassembled the dashes and door panels of tens of thousands of vehicles, measured the spaces where the factory stereos and speakers fit, and loaded our findings into our massive fit database. Our system then compares these measurements to the dimensions of a given receiver or speaker to determine which aftermarket products will fit in the factory location.

No one else in the consumer electronics industry does the kind of stuff we do. That’s why no one else knows what we know.

Compatible products

You’ll often see us note that a product “works with” your vehicle. This means that while it doesn’t necessarily fit in a factory location, it’s still designed to be compatible with your vehicle’s electronics or interior design. Compatible products include adapters (for Bluetooth^® or smartphone control, for example) that plug into your vehicle’s stereo wiring harness and device holders that mount in a specific spot on the dash.

We also carry a wide range of products that actually are designed to work exclusively with specific vehicles. See below to learn more.

The Crutchfield KitFinder

When you’re choosing new car audio gear, the first step is to choose the gear that fits your car. The second step is to get it installed correctly. That’s why we developed the Crutchfield KitFinder. With KitFinder, you’ll be able to use our massive database to find and compare gear that will fit your specific vehicle. We’ll also make sure you have the installation parts and instructions that make the job easier. Whether you’re a first-time DIY-er or an experienced car audio pro, KitFinder takes the hassle and guesswork out of choosing and installing your new stereo and/or speakers.

When you shop with us, you’ll see:

• Filtered lists of stereos that we know fit in your dash
• The installation parts required to install the stereo gear you’re interested in, plus the parts that let you retain certain advanced factory features. And they’re all bundled into easy-to-add packages

With most orders, you’ll also get a set of Crutchfield’s legendary vehicle-specific disassembly instructions. Created using info gathered by our Vehicle Research Team, these guides give you step-by-step guidance and detailed illustrations or photos. They’re available for thousands of vehicles.

Shopping for car speakers

To see which speakers fit your vehicle, we’ve disassembled the door panels of tens of thousands of vehicles, measured the spaces where the factory speakers fit, and loaded our findings into Crutchfield’s massive fit database. Our system then compares these measurements to the dimensions of a given speaker to see if it will fit in the factory cavity.

Here’s how all that info helps you get and install your new speakers:

• You’ll see a filtered lists of speakers that satisfy the depth, diameter, and height requirements of your vehicle’s factory speaker openings
• We’ll show you the speakers that are available for specific locations in your car. That list can include locations that don’t have factory speakers, but can be adapted using certain mounting adapters. We won’t list a given location if there are no speakers that fit there.
• When brackets and wiring harnesses (if available) are required for your installation, we’ll prompt you to add them to your cart. They’re free with almost all speaker purchases, along with our free vehicle-specific installation instructions.

Custom fit products

Many manufacturers have designed products that work directly with specific vehicles. These include:

• “Direct” replacements for certain products, such as speakers.
• Products that take advantage of unused space in the car, such as subwoofer enclosures
  custom-designed to fit in places that don’t sacrifice trunk or cargo spaces.
• Products that plug directly into your car’s wiring and work with your factory stereo,
  such as Bluetooth hands-free adapters or sound processors.

Universal fit products

Many car A/V products we describe as “universal,” in that there aren’t dedicated factory locations for them. With many of these products, you’ll have to check your vehicle for available space, and carefully plan your installation in advance. The most common include:

• Amplifiers Amps require three things: a mounting location, power wiring directly to your car’s battery, and wiring for musical signal. You’ll need to check the dimensions of the amps you’re interested in, which we provide, then measure the available space you have in your vehicle. Mounting locations can include underneath seats or in the trunk or cargo area. We’ll show you the size of wires you’ll need when you make your purchase, and we can offer tips online and by phone for wiring strategies.
• Subwoofers Just about all subwoofers need to be mounted in an enclosure, which then fits in an available spot in your car. As with an amplifier, you’ll need to measure space in your vehicle to see if the subwoofer you’re interested in will fit, while leaving you enough cargo space for your needs. If you choose a powered subwoofer, we’ll make sure you get the right power wiring; if you choose a sub and box, we’ll recommend the right size of speaker wire, which you’ll connect to the external amp that’ll send power to the sub.
• Portable products such as GPS navigators, radar detectors, and dash cams. You’ll just want to make sure that you have a dash or windshield large enough to accommodate the mounting systems of these sorts of products without interfering with your sight or operation of the vehicle.

2. Autonomy. The wireless speaker is equipped with a battery. If you do not want it to run out at the wrong time, make sure that the device shows enough battery life for you.
3. Number of speakers . If the speaker is equipped with one speaker, then the sound will be mono, if two, then stereo, which is much better. Some speakers also have more speakers for better sound quality.
4. Frequency range . According to the standard, this parameter is 20 – 20000 Hz, which corresponds to the frequencies that the human ear can perceive. Meanwhile, the wider the range, the smoother the frequency response, that is, the sound is reproduced without dips at certain frequencies.

Top 11 Portable FM Radio Speakers

Portable speakers have been very popular for years. And this is quite understandable. After all, these compact and functional devices are capable of playing audio tracks from a smartphone, tablet using a Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and / or wired connection. In addition, many models are equipped with an FM tuner for receiving radio stations, and can also play audio from USB flash drives and memory cards.

This wireless audio system is a great opportunity to enjoy high-quality sound anywhere and anytime.

Key features to consider when choosing a portable speaker:

• Total power. The parameter is measured in watts (W) and determines the maximum possible sound volume. But it should be borne in mind that there is no direct relationship, since the volume is also affected by the number of speakers and their characteristics.
• Battery life. The parameter shows how long the device can work without connecting to the network.
• Number of speakers. The portable speaker cabinet houses either one or two speakers. In the first case, there will be monophonic sound, in the second – stereo sound.
• Frequency response. The human hearing aid perceives sounds in the range from 20 to 20,000 Hz. The closer the reproduced frequency of the audio system is to these values, the fuller the sound will be.
• Ways to connect to a smartphone. The most commonly used connection is Bluetooth, but some models offer NFC and Wi-Fi connectivity. There is also a wired way – with an audio cable through the AUX line input.
• IP rating. For outdoor use, it is better to choose options with a degree of moisture protection from IPX5 and higher.
• Additional features. Additional features include color music, equalizer, built-in microphone, karaoke function, etc.
