Matching your speakers to the type of stereo you is easy with a little bit of knowledge about stereos and speakers.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Step1
Check the manual that came with the stereo to find out what wattage rating the unit can handle.
Step2
Match your speakers to the stereo based on the ohm's rating and the wattage.
Step3
The wattage should be listed at its highest level, while speakers come with a range of wattage, from 5 watts to 100 watts as an example.
Step4
Make certain that the wattage rating for the stereo is within the range of the speakers. Speakers that can't handle the wattage of the stereo will sound fuzzy and eventually blow out.
