So, man I hate car audio. I’d like to know if anyone has run one of these amps. It’s a stand alone Bluetooth amp that doesn’t require a radio, just stream through your phone.

I bought one, and installed it in the top of my glove box. Nicely hidden. The goal is simply to have some reasonable music I can hear over the motor when I so desire… I know… the mere thought is blasphemy.

Says to connect to switched power.
I hooked it to switched power on the factory radio (black with green dots?) wouldn’t maintain a Bluetooth signal. Is there a better place to grab switched power?

(FYI It sounds good, clear, and I only have two 3x5 in the doors)

Cheers.

The power to the radio is white with purple stripe. The black with green dots wire provides reduced voltage to the gauges from the instrument voltage regulator. The black with green hash wire provides switched unfused power to the fuse block and wiper switch. White with purple stripe wires also provide power to the windshield washers, back up lights and turn signals.

Help!!!!! Trying to install a new am/fm stereo in my 1972 convertible. The new unit has a red wire (ignition), yellow (battery) and black (ground) based on the photo below I have a blue with red stripe, yellow with red stripe and yellow with brown stripe. Not sure what wire(s) should be connected to the red and yellow wires? Any guidance would be appreciated.............
