Cool tech features for your next cars

December 9th, 2011

As jobs go, being an automotive journalist has its perks, not the least of which is spending quality time behind the wheel of 70-plus new car and truck models every year. The downside to this never-ending parade of wheels, of course, is that it tends to make one jaded.

Quite frankly, we’re not easily impressed. Which explains why it’s a big deal when we find new gee-whiz technology that actually lives up to the hype surrounding it. And why we’re equally quick to point out “innovations” that aren’t so essential. Here are seven tech features we really like and three you can live without.

1. WORTH EVERY PENNY: 360-Degree Cameras

We’ve all been there: Stopped at a traffic light, stuck behind some inconsiderate oaf hogging more than his share of the lane when we’re trying to make a right turn on red. And wondering whether, just maybe, we can squeeze our vehicle through that glimmer of daylight between this road hog and the curb. Well, with the Around View Monitor option on the 2011 Infiniti EX35 andFX35 crossovers you’ll wonder no longer. Images from the system’s four cameras are stitched together by a computer to create an incredibly useful (and pretty darn cool) top-down view of the area surrounding your car.

online reputation for doctors

December 9th, 2011

Doctor Reviews are provided everywhere to guess the performance of a particular product, service or a person. These reviews can be related to anything that is the essential need, want or demand of the people including the luxury. They set the standards to be the best in a particular scenario or field to gain the maximum attention of the stake holders i.e. every person related to it and can be influenced by it. There are many sources which provide the people with the reviews of the physicians they are get served from and other physicians in the business. One commonly used source of such information is the internet and the websites which are designed to guide you about the physician you need to cure your medical problem. They have a lot of material which helps you to find out about the performance of your physician and other MDs in the country.

The material which provides the information about the physicians and MDs you are attending or need to attend in future includes the profiles of the physicians. These profiles are further equipped with each and every information about the MDs such as the educational background, the experiences and the field of expertise, the patient reviews about the MD and rank of the MD which is given to him/her by the patients he/she attended. You can search in a various ways these profiles and reviews so that to take a decision about the physician you need to get served from.

These reviews and profiles of the physicians are quite helpful to build the perception about that physician. Furthermore, you will obviously like to check the status of the physician you normally consult with about whom all the information will be provided on such web portals to give you a clear picture. In this way you can further decide to change your physician finding the best among them or to start trusting your current physician having a high rank and good patient reviews.

Used cars search

November 17th, 2011

Once the decision has been made on where to buy a used car, there are a few important things you should know before you buy.

First, research, research, research.
Use resources like the Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds.com, as well as car reviews (such as those here at CarSeek.com) to learn the fair market value and technical specifications of the car you want. Also, consider ordering a report from CarFax.com, which traces the title and history of the car. This is especially important when buying from a private seller.

Ask a lot of questions.
Find out if the dealer/seller was the original owner, and if not, who was. Ask for the maintenance history and repair records, if there are any, and find out if the vehicle has ever been in an accident. If you’re buying from a dealership, ask if there’s a warranty. (A tip: if you are told there’s a warranty, and the Buyer’s Guide sticker says “As Is”, then unless there is remaining time on the original warranty, you do NOT have one. The sticker supercedes anything else.)

Inspect the car.
Whether you’re buying from a dealer or an individual, make sure you see the car in the daylight. If you have a trusted mechanic, bring him or her with you. If not, make sure you test the levels of fluids, the cleanliness of the engine, and the ground underneath the car (for evidence of leaking.) Take as long a test drive as you can, and drive with the radio both on, and off. Check the undercarriage both before and after your test drive, and let the car idle so you can check out the exhaust.

Trust your instincts.
If a seller refuses to let you test drive a vehicle, leave immediately. Take your time, and trust your own judgment. You should never sign anything if you feel pressured or uncertain, because once you sign, there are no returns. If you feel at all uncomfortable, about the vehicle, or about the deal, don’t be afraid to walk away. The beauty of shopping for used cars is that there are always similar models available for similar prices.

Read all the fine print.
Whether you’re buying from the guy down the block, or going to a reliable dealership, read the fine print. Most states do not have lemon laws requiring the buy-back of bad vehicles, and in those that do, such laws are generally only applicable to the sales of new cars. If you’re buying from an individual, make sure you drive the car home, and that you don’t leave without the title, keys, any spare parts and records, and the owner’s manual. If you’re buying from a dealer, make sure you understand exactly what repairs or defects are the dealer’s responsibility, if any.

Horror stories about buying used cars abound, but the truth is that you can avoid all the perils and pitfalls of such transactions by knowing what you want, and being an informed buyer, but if you’re not ready to buy a pre-owned vehicle just yet, consider that knowing how to buy may make you a better seller, when your new car isn’t so new any more.

Car music system

August 26th, 2011

In our first two installments in this series, we looked at car audio systems in general and then took an in-depth tour of the head unit. In this, our third installment in the sequence, we’ll get up close and personal with the car audio power amplifier.

Before we go any further, let’s define our terms here. When we say “power amplifier” we are not referring to the entire amplification stage, but specifically to power amplification. You may recall that in Parts One and Two we touched upon the amplification process as a whole and broke it into two separate component groups: the power amplifier stage and the preamplifier stage.

Although both of these processes reflect opposite sides of the same coin, they actually work quite differently. The preamplifier serves more of a routing and control function, while the power amplifier deals with delivering brute force to the speakers.

Since its functions diverge from our discussion here, let’s dispense with the preamplifier stage for now. We’ll return to it in Part Five to take a final look at the preamplifier and discuss how its features aid and enhance the in-car entertainment experience.

So…the power amplifier. What does it do? How does it work?

The power amplifier’s main job is to deliver a boosted, or “amplified,” signal to the loudspeakers. The technology for this actually goes back more than a hundred years, to Thomas Edison and the light bulb, but it took a quantum leap in the ’50s, when Sony introduced the transistor for commercial use, to pave the way for the power amp as we know it today.

Prior to this, most electronic devices — television sets, radios and industrial computers — used vacuum tubes. Vacuum tubes, or tubes as they’re more commonly known, are still used in high-end home amplifiers, because of their excellent sonic qualities and “warmth” of tone. However, tubes have a major aversion to heat and vibration, so they’re less than ideal in an automotive setting.

Think of the transistor as equivalent to the microprocessor in computers. Just as the microprocessor revolutionized the computer industry, making the PC possible, so too did the transistor transform the face of consumer electronics.

Earlier in this series we mentioned that heat is the enemy of most electric components, specifically amplifiers, which generate a lot of heat during operation. Therefore, except for small, lower-powered systems (10 to 20 watts per channel), which have the amplifier attached to the rear of the radio, most car audio amps will be located remotely from the faceplate, connected by a cable.

Since amplification is the last stop for the audio signal before it goes to the speakers, the amp merely takes whatever signal is delivered to it (after tone adjustments, balance/fade, etc., have altered it) and increases it. But that “merely” makes all the difference in the world, and it’s the reason people will pay thousands of dollars for an aftermarket system that delivers awesome bass.

Before we define some amplification terms, a little more on heat. As stated above, larger amps (those above 10-20 watts per channel) are located remotely from the radio. This is not only because larger amps take up more room. A high-powered amp needs to “breathe” much as the cooling system for your engine breathes. Looking at the pictures of Pioneer and Kenwood amps we’ve included here, you’ll note that they have “ridges” and “valleys” on top. Similar to your car’s radiator, this design increases the surface area of the amp, allowing the metal to “radiate” the heat generated inside the amplifier back into the environment.

Through a series of transistors, conductors, rectifiers, resistors, inductors, capacitors and circuit boards, the inaudible signal coming from your radio passes through the amplifier and is “boosted” into the audible range. Once this is accomplished, the signal is delivered to the speaker terminals at the other end of the amp. Speaker wires connected to the terminals then carry the amplified signal to the speakers.

Amplifier output is typically measured in watts per channel, with a normal stereo system having two channels, left and right. You’ll frequently see “RMS” after the wattage figure — this stands for “Root Mean Square,” which is a mathematical measurement of the magnitude of the AC signal. More watts means more power output to the speakers, which in turn means louder volume.

Be aware, though, that in the aftermarket, and even at the OEM level, manufacturers will frequently massage the numbers to make their amplifiers appear to put out more power than they do.

The most common trick is to combine the per channel output figures into a “total system power” rating. In other words, a system that generates 50 watts per channel, RMS, suddenly becomes “100 watts total system power.” As ludicrous as this sounds, it’s a very common practice in the industry.

Another sleight-of-hand is to quote a “maximum power” rating. This is like driving a 1963 VW Beetle down a steep grade with a 50 mile per hour tailwind and then saying the car “averaged” 97 miles an hour. Not in any world you or I populate. Max power ratings are used to inflate real-world power output numbers and to trick the consumer into thinking they’re getting more for their money, but they rarely reflect real-world circumstances in an audio system.

Third is the “peak power” rating. This is a snapshot of the amp in one particular moment of performance. Any decent audio amplifier will produce two, three, even four times its RMS power for a split second. However, to use this as its actual power rating would be like saying an Olympic weightlifter who cleaned and jerked 500 pounds had the “carrying capacity” of a quarter ton. Not exactly truth in advertising.

If you see “maximum power rating,” or “total system power” or “peak power rating” on a box or a brochure with no other RMS figures to justify it, head for the hills. Either that, or divide the number in half for a more realistic RMS rating.

Used cars for sales are having lower depreciation cost

August 26th, 2011

It is not strange enough to hear that used cars are having better markets than the newer cars market. Used cars are having so many benefits that overrule the possibilities of preferences of the newer cars. Let’s see the plus points of using the used cars than the newer cars.

Used cars for sale are the cheaper options

When the world is heading towards the price rising in all the sectors, the used cars for sale are the options that are available at the reasonable and cheaper rates. Even if you plan for the branded cars, you can never serve the option of buying them in the original cost of you are having a budget in your minds. So, any of the luxurious cars and also the royal cars can never become the pert of your life if the used cars for sale are not available!! But, thanks God that there are almost all the reputed brands of cars available in the used car section. So, the cheaper option makes the used cars section more attractive to the people.

Used cars for sale give you better selections

As we see, used cars for sale are the cheaper options that one can have. Now, if someone is having stipulated budget, he definitely has to make compromise in the newer car options as the prices of the cars are quite higher and this restricts the choices produced by the budget. But, if you are searching in the used cars for sale option, you can have the wider verities of your choice cars and that also perfectly in your budget!! So, there is no chance of compromise in selecting the option of used cars for sale.

Used cars for sales are having lower depreciation cost

Used cars for sale are the better option for the depreciation cost effect. They do have some of the best opportunities that can persuade any of the new car buyers. Let’s see what this benefit matters.

For example, you buy a new car for $45,000 and it’s one of the best cars of your choice. Now, after few months, by any reason, you have to sell the car. How much you would expect for the selling of car? Now, see the example of the second hand or the used cars example. If you are buying the second car of the same company and same model at the rate of say $20,000 and same way, resell it in just a fewer months, which would be the better and beneficial deal?

Here definitely the later option will seem to be the better option. Also we do understand that there is no certainty in the market as well as in the lives of us. So, it seems to have the deal with lower rates of used cars for sale and to save money for the future. This could be the prime reason to get attracted towards the used cars for sale!!
