Radios are the latest in the world of portable music players. Previously there was only a home stereo. Home Stereo first emerged in 1930. But in 1950, began at home stereo system accessible to people. But the 21 Century was the heyday of the car radio. With the help of new technologies that enabled the 21 Century, radio systems, supporting new audio formats. There are several formats for new radios now. In this article we will discuss all these new audio formats. Previously, a machine was used to only one radio in your dashboard and two speakers in front doors. But the times have changed now. Today’s advanced technology, so that the car stereos are as good as home stereo competitive. Dolby Dolby is an audio format that is used by the brilliant car. Dolby influences actually the audio signal and reduces background noise or noise in the existing systems of poor quality. This can be effective in tape, because of background noise common in the cassette. Surround Sound Surround sound is actually an effect that the listener is the feeling that the sound comes from almost all directions. Gone are the days when sound from a single left and right. Now that sounds from the left, right, middle, high, low, almost all directions. DSP The form is filled with DSP Digital Signal Processing. DSP creates a special type of action that will be called psycho-acoustic effect. This special effect was created by delaying the audio signals and influence. This effect actually creates an extra noise that is not there originally. In reality, to create a series of delays, the echoes. All of them are inevitable. And these echoes to create special effect. Many models contain a variety of settings, like, jazz club, stadium, concert hall, etc. MP3 MP3 is one of the most respected audio formats today. MP3 was previously done only for the home stereo. But radios include this format. MP3 is a special format that the CD contains a large number of songs / tracks can be. If you play it in your car, so can you make a lot of music or other data compressed onto a CD and is in a position in your car stereo. Sometimes affects the MP3 format sound quality through the compression. But if this minor inconvenience can be excused, and MP3 can in many ways. The best part is that there is much space is saved. Previously he would bring a lot of CDs in the car. But now, you can listen to all your favorite songs to play a single CD. There are some changes in the MP3 format that you have recently taken place. Now, car radios together in a small computer that can read MP3. And the computer does not need a CD to MP3. The data can be loaded directly on that computer from your home PC. It contains a portable hard drive, ensuring that this work can be done. The hard drive must be connected via the USB port. RDS RDS or Radio Data System is a very radio-equipped car set-up. So you can listen to all radio stations in your city. It also offers some special features. When you hear a certain kind of song, for example, country song, then you may want to select the category and the radio station is doing this particular kind of song. You can also live traffic reports. If you or save TRAF TA, then the radio will automatically switch to the latest traffic news channel time.

People were considered lucky if they have used a radio in the dashboard and two speakers in front doors. With the latest technology, radios, stereos now can compete with home audio systems. Analog has long been converted into a digital format. Some of the latest technologies are a car-stereo surround sound, Dolby Pro-Logic Digital Signal Processing, MP3 technology, etc. As in stereo, the machine has changed over the car stereo. The main areas of development are sound reproduction and clarity. The basis of any technology is the car stereo sound system. To learn more about the subject, it is important to know the basics of car stereo. In fact, it is noteworthy that receive stereo applications as important as the design itself. The composition of a car radio system is based on four different groups. Car stereo system can not function without these components. Amplifiers, speakers, head and back-up units of input devices like graphic equalizer, CD changer, etc., the most important parts of the system. The unit head, as the name suggests, is the heart of any stereo system. The control unit or the radio is as a central processing unit of the device. It controls all functions of the demand would be the volume up and down by adding more bass etc. Every change is made by this display unit or the radio. Behind the dashboard display unit, there are dozens of cables in various directions with the other systems connected to the vehicle. In addition to the volume and bass control can display the unit contains other components. A major problem is the space crunch. Unlike the home stereo system, where you can enjoy plenty of room, car radio face space limitations. So before you put the components in one unit, several factors must be considered as different drafts of individual cars from the others. Availability of space, heat, cosmetic design, etc., are the decisive factors in shaping the head of unit. Amplifier, another component of the technology stereo, is usually affixed to the back of the head. Sometimes, however, the amplifiers are hidden. In fact, to some extent improved the technology car stereo help dispel heat. Signal amplification by two separate tools, namely, managed preamp and power amplifier. The function of the speaker is to receive signals from the output stage and to bring the sound into the ears of the listener. The technology is transforming the amplified signal in the proposed cone. The loudspeaker consists of three components: woofer, tweeter and midrange. Car stereo system, these components will be adjusted accordingly in order to achieve the desired sound. Current trends show that the technology has stereo machine a long way to go. The improvements are so encouraging that produce the home stereo makers now to car radios. So we can expect increasing sophistication in this area.

The composition of a car stereo system is based on four basic components. These are amplifiers, speakers, head units and input devices like graphic equalizer, CD changer etc.
The head unit, as the name suggests, is the core of any stereo system. The head unit or radio is called the central processing equipment of the device. It controls all the functions of the application like turning the volume up and down, adding more bass etc. Every manual sound adjustment is made by the driver through this head unit or radio. Behind the dash of the head unit, there are dozens of wires connected to power, speakers, antennae, and so on.
In addition to volume and bass control, this head unit may have other features as well like fade, 3D sound, bass boost, etc. Unlike the home stereo system, where one can avail a huge space, car stereo systems are required to operate efficiently in the small space of the interior of a car. Thus, when installing a new system, one must take full consideration of availability of space, heat, cosmetic design, power requirements and aesthetics.
Amplifiers are the high power devices that convert sound signals into high power speaker driving current. With some modern systems, the amplifiers are hidden well away from view, perhaps in the trunk of the car. Amplifiers can get hot, so they are often equipped with heat sinks, fans and should be installed in a somewhat ventilated location.
The function of speakers are to receive the signals from the power amp and convert it into audible sound vibrations for the listener. The sound vibrations are created by causing the speaker cone to vibrate. The speaker consists of three components i. e. woofer, tweeter and midrange driver. In car stereos, these components are positioned strategically, usually with the woofer in the back and tweeters in the front.
In the future, even smaller speakers and higher power amplifiers may become available. Just don’t blow your eardrums!

Different people like to spend their leisure time in accordance to their unique taste. One of the most common past-times is listening to music. Thanks to advancements in technology, one can now listen to his or her favorite music while driving the car at an incredibly high fidelity, volume level, and quality of sound than was possible a decade ago.
A car stereo can be as high quality as a home stereo system, inside a car. The market for car stereos are rising so much that manufacturers of home audio systems are investing in this field.
Before buying an audio system, one should consider some points. It is important to see whether the car stereo fits in your car or not. If you want powerful sound, you need large speakers — but there just may not be room for that depending on the dimensions of your vehicle. In that case, your only solution is to go with higher power speakers of a smaller size, and to double them up in pairs of 2, 4 or even greater quantities.
The sound quality inside a car is greatly affected by the placement of speakers. It is typical to place bass speakers in the back, because they have a sound vibration that reaches a longer distance. Treble and high frequency speakers are usually placed at the front, near the listeners, and positioned for optimal “stereo effect”.
An alternate solution to a custom installed car stereo, is simply to plug a portable tape player, perhaps with its own speakers, into the cigarette lighter that provides 12VDC power. There are things to be careful of, though, like leaving your player in the sun. Hot sun can melt not only cassette tapes, but even wires and speakers. Also, this kind of setup is very prone to theft. Someone can fairly easily lift your tape player right out the window.
Some new car stereos have DVD players and pop up display LCD screens. The LCD screens can be slide out or folded, though that depends on the head unit. Nowadays, some new car stereos can also display traffic signal messages and perhaps even GPS location tracking systems to help navigate.
An MP3 player is a good choice of portable format that can store many songs in one device.
Loud car stereos are quite a craze among the young generation and can play music above 140 decibels. However, this kind of stereo can cause hearing problems and it can also drown out road noise that may be important to hear for safety. For example, sirens and other cars could be drowned out be a loud stereo, producing a driving risk.
Finally, car stereos are not only for entertainment, but they also act as a status symbol and a display of wealth. Kids like to show off the size and volume of their stereo, even if that volume level is not legally allowed.
