Car Stereos: RCA jacks, signal interference, level converter

Question
i dont have any place to hook up RCA wires on the cd player that i bought. how can i hook up an amp?

Answer
Hi Derrick,

If your amp doesn't have a 'speaker level input' option, or if you don't want to use it, you can buy a high level converter such as:

With this, you connect the speaker wires from the deck into this device, and then plug the RCAs into that.

If you can afford it, I would suggest doing this instead of using an amp with high-level inputs.  High level inputs are more susceptible to losing their signal and signal interference than low level.

Good luck,
Justin
