Answer 1

Hello,

I'm sorry to say that I have not heard of any company called Autostar which manufactures Car Audio components. I've also never heard of an Amplifier(4 channel) being sold for Rs.3000 when it is brand new.

If your car is kitted with a JVC receiver and touch panel I suggest you get some proper gear to go with it. I assume you spent over Rs.10,00,000 to get that new car. Now I suggest you spend a little over Rs.20,000 to get a great audio system into it.

What speakers are fitted in your car? Replace them and get two sets of Component speakers instead. Also get a good subwoofer with a sealed enclosure. Power the speakers using a 4 channel amp and the subwoofer by a mono channel amp. Go to a reputed dealer and they'll take care of the wiring and other accessories and you'll get genuine stuff.

My suggestion - Get one pair of component and one pair of co-axial speakers. Both at around 100W RMS at 2 ohms impedance each. JBL, Boston Acoustic, Polk audio are some high end brands. Power them using a 4 channel amp that can deliver around  4 X 100W RMS at 2 ohms impedance. Rockford fosgate and Kicker amps are very well known. Use a 600W RMS mono channel amp to power a good 13.5" subwoofer which again works at 2 ohms impedance. I trust JL Audio and Infinity subwoofers.
