1. Toyota of N Charlotte’s tips for upgrading your car’s audio
system
Do you feel like your car audio system is… well, a little bit behind the times?
Technological advancements have made today’s car audio systems a thing to
behold. From streaming to app connectivity to navigation, audio systems can
keep you entertained, safe, and connected for miles and miles. If your car audio
system is lacking in any or all of these areas, it might be time to upgrade it. Our
Charlotte auto parts store is here with tips from the expert to help you make it
happen.
5 steps to take when upgrading your N Charlotte Toyota’s audio system
Tip #1: Decide what you want to buy.
Before you start clicking purchase, decide the qualities that you want your new
car audio system to have. Make a list and then cross-reference it with the options
available so you check all the boxes on your must-have list AND get the most for
your money. Our Charlotte Toyota parts store can help you explore your options
and find a match.
Tip #2: Invest in a new head unit.

2. If you’re upgrading, you’ll want to invest in a new head unit. This will ensure you
have access to a wide variety of features and a new interface to work with.
Again, make sure your new infotainment system lines up with everything you
want out of your car audio system before you purchase it.
Tip #3: Consider getting new speakers.
You may want to consider getting new speakers for your N Charlotte Toyota
when you upgrade everything else. It’ll give you a crisper and more enhanced
sound, and you might actually HAVE to buy new speakers if you’re using external
audio accessories that need speakers that can keep up with them.
Tip #4: Explore your amp options.
When you upgrade your Toyota’s audio system, you’ll likely need an amplifier to
designate audio channels and ensure the system is running efficiently. After all,
you’re going to have a lot more going on with all of the accessories and options
and you’ll need more power distributed to them so you don’t kill your car’s
battery.
Tip #5: Think about a subwoofer.
Adding a subwoofer to your system can really turn things up a notch in terms of
sound, majorly amplifying the bass. However, remember that if you add a
subwoofer, you may need an amp to power it. Otherwise it can quickly drain your
car’s battery with its need for extra power.
