Hello, everybody! I'm thinking of buying a new CD Player for my car. My car has 8 speakers but the CD Player specifications say that it support only four speakers x 50w. So does it mean I cound not make all my speakers work? And will the wheel buttons still work?

Thank you in advance! :)

You could try to piggy back your speaker connections and hope the speakers work with the lower power. Otherwise you will need an amplifier to power the additional speakers. 8 speakers seems like a premium head unit was used though, so if your using an average deck you will need to bump up your output to match your last head unit.
