The car radio is the centerpiece of any car audio system. They look great in the dash, and they're full of useful features. Also known as a radio, receiver, or head unit, today's car radio performs a variety of complex functions so that we can better enjoy our driving time.
Superior built-in power and better circuit design mean that aftermarket car radio is not just louder than typical factory radio. It also produces cleaner, richer, more detailed sound. Enhanced tone controls in the preamp section mean that you can do a better job of tuning the music.
Advanced features on new radios are more detailed displays to make it easier to see what you're doing. Of course, you should consider a touchscreen monitor. They make it a lot easier to control and adjust the radio.
The most significant bits you should look for are the audio sources you use most of the time.
Do you need a CD player to play? Are you going to use your receiver for DVD playback when parked? Have you dipped disks in favor of digital media? Depending on your answer, you will have to decide whether to use a traditional CD-receiver with a disk slot, a larger A/V receiver with a color screen, or a mechless receiver ditches the drive the moving parts that come with it.
These days, it is essential for your car to have a Bluetooth receiver so you can play a broader range of formats. But if you want the ultimate in sound quality, your head unit should have the ability to play FLAC files.
Speaking of adjustments, precision sound controls such as digital time correction and parametric equalization are available on higher-end receivers for those of you who want to tweak the sound. But even cheaper aftermarket radios will offer more audio control than the typical factory radio. That's just one more way that a new radio can make your music sound better.
Aftermarket car radios, with their high-tech displays and state-of-the-art layouts, can enhance the appearance of the interior of your car. Your options include full-color animated displays, customizable color schemes, and touchscreen monitors that usually have selectable backgrounds and colors.
