Connect A Car Amplifier To A Dvd Player

We're all familiar with DVD players and the outstanding sound and video performance they offer. But if you're going to use a DVD player in the car, there are some important factors you must consider. You can send the video output to an LCD video screen, but you'll need a way to amplify the sound if you want to hear the movie you're showing over the car's stereo system. That's where a car amplifier can be helpful.








Instructions


1. Connect your RCA patch cable to the audio outputs of your DVD player. DVD players will have a set of right and left stereo RCA jack outputs for sound, in addition to their usual selection of digital outputs. Plug the red RCA plug into the DVD player's red RCA jack, and the white RCA plug into the DVD player's white RCA plug.








2. Route the RCA cable to the location of your amplifier. If the two are very close to each other, this is quite easy. If they're in different parts of the car, you'll want to remove the scuff plates along the doors so you can pull back the carpet and put the cable down underneath it.


3. Plug the RCA cable into the RCA jacks of the amplifier. As you did with the RCA outputs of the DVD player, connect the red plug into the red jack of the amplifier, and the white plug into the white jack. This completes the audio connection of your DVD player and car amplifier.
