The United States, the world's biggest oil consuming country, consumed 18.5 million barrels of oil per day (mbd) in 2012, which accounted for nearly 20% of the world's total oil consumption per day. The highest level of oil consumption in US history was 20.8mbd, which occurred in 2005.
It is also important to be conscious of the speakerâs sensitivity rating, measured in decibels (dB). The higher the number, the less power a speaker requires in order to reach higher volumes without distortion. For most car speakers, this number typically ranges between 88 to 92 dB.
Almost all car amplifiers are at least four ohm stable. Some are two ohm stable, which means that you could run a pair of four ohm speakers in parallel on each channel of the amplifier, and each channel of the amp would see two ohms.
