intalled audio deck to my car..can i wrap paper and tape around the connecting points?

basically ive finished Installing the car audio deck in my car, everything works…due to lack of resourses i had the wrap paper and tape the connected points of the wires together….my questino is would it catch on fire..can i use that as a temporory protection so it wont touch the other wires?

Paper and tape has a lower flamability rate than tin foil, which I’ve seen people do a lot. Those wires tend to get warm, so I recommend using black electrical tape and going to an audio shop and getting wire clips. You twist them on the ends of the wires and then you’re good.

Just confused with installing the audio system for my car?

I got my Maruti Ritz VXI today, looking out for an good quality of audio system, my option are Alpine and Pioneer, and the speakers 6*9 Infinity or Kicker and front component speakers infinity or Kicker.
can somebody please help me out with the selection,
i would like to have a good clarity with sufficient bass punch.
thanks in advance.

Metalman56 covered it pretty good. The fact is without a sub, you won’t have a car that will "shake with music and bass" . so you need a sub. as for 3 way vs 4 way, it is a preference and you need to listen to them, its kinda like asking which is better the red car or the blue one… If you are truely after sound quality, i would recommend getting a round speaker for the 4 main speakers. if your current speakers are 6×9 there are adaptor plates available at a good car audio shop to fit a 6 1/2" round in that space. a 6×9 will give more bass but sound worse than a 6 1/2" but the lack of bass is a non issue when added a sub, because the bass frequencies will be "cut off" from the mains anyway, and redirected to the sub.
If you want to start off slow i would get a 4 channel amp, a sub and 2 new speakers up front, i recomend a component set with a seperate woofer and tweeter. with these components you would uses the deck to power the rear factory speakers, then 2 of the channels to power the new front speakers and the other 2 channels would bridge to power the sub. this will give full frequency sound at a budget price. If you decided to add more power and more volume, all parts would still be usable, just buy two new speakers for the back and power all Speakers with the 4 channel amp, then add a new mono amp for the sub. If you go this route, just make sure the sub can hold plenty of power for a future upgrade. i would look into a 50×4 up to a 75 x 4 amp, and around a 400-600 watt sub. This would be a nice system without major electrical system upgrades.
