Winter will be here soon. Should I..

I was wonder if I should take out the stereo, when winter comes, or should it be no problem when winter hits. It gets damn cold here in IL, under 0 a lot. Does extreme cold affect amps, and subs. Or just warming them up before hard playing would be fine? Since it's inside the truck and I'll be running the heater, should be no problem with them gettin to cold right?

you can keep all your audio stuff in your car. Just make sure it is plenty warm before you crank up the volume. Its just like driving your car...dont rev the piss out of it before its warm.

Sounds good. Now if I slide off into a ditch, I can always listen to my music before a tow truck comes.

i have never had any problems with it before. it works good to shake snow off your car. i dont think ull have any trouble with anything unless maybe you had an older sub with a cheap foam surround but with a rubber one you can play them pretty loud. amps it might hurt if the air is really frosty then youll want to take it slowly.

I've played my stereo in the past even when the amp was too cold to touch. I wouldn't cranck it for a while if the temperature was colder than -20 degrees celcius which is -4 fahrenheit because nothing likes to move in the weather. When we get around -30 to -40 which is -40 fahrenheit I don't play the stereo at all until the heater has it cooking in the truck because at the temp the CD doesn't even get up to speed enough to play for quite a while.
