Tunes

Tunes I know some of you are like me, the Ultimate ride is summer crusing with windows down and tunes blasting on the radio! What is the best way to do this in a model A with six volts? l was out with the A today 18 degrees, The cold did not keep my fun meter from peaking!

The tunes in my Model A is the sound coming out of the lakester pipes from the 21 studder at 60 MPH.

Bluetooth speaker and iPhone, that’s what I use and it works great

i have 12v on my car but will probably get a bt speaker over getting a mounted radio.

Here's the 6 volt radio I use.

I also use Bluetooth - but that's strictly for the car phone (in the second picture).

I use an iphone plus a smaller blue tooth speaker. there are some very good ones for not to much money. If you go that route you may want to buy an aux battery for your iphone. You can end up with a dead battery on your phone.

You can buy an adapter from 6v to 12v puts out enough to operate a radio. Macs should have them

One of the advantages of converting to 12 volts is that you can readily buy a radio and install it in your A. I have 3 As, all on 12 volts but a radio only in one (not counting the CB in the car we go outback in). I record my favourite music on a memory stick and let 'er rip. It is also Blue tooth capable. Best of both worlds!

Be sure the test any device that purports to convert six volts to twelve. Less costly units won't have the filtering required or maybe shielding so tend to be "noisy" for purposes of audio and introduce a lot of hash or static to whatever it is you're trying to listen to.

If I had thought about it earlier, I probably would have changed to 12volts. After installing 6 v led lights, the generator acted up. Went to alternator and this weekend will install 12 volt step up power supply for gadgets.
