Question:

We put this stereo in our travel trailer a couple years ago. Weve been pretty happy for the most part but we have a pair of BOSS Audio Systems Marine MR50W 150 Watt Per Pair, 5.25 Inch Full Range, 2 Way outdoor/marine speakers on the outside of the camper. The sound indoors is great, but we really have to jack up the sound to hear the outdoor speakers. So was wondering about adding an amplifier to the setup. I dont know a lot about this so would appreciate any knowledge you can share as well as a recommendation on an amplifier if you believe it would be a benefit. Thanks in advance.

Getting the right amp for your speakers is pretty easy to do. To get the most volume and sound quality the best way is to at least double the amount of watts the speaker is rated for at max. So for that I would recommend the Jensen Power Amplifier # POWER760 which when ran in bridged mode can put out 190 watts per channel. This would make a huge difference in your sound quality and more importantly volume.
