Is a glossary of the terms available anywhere? I will be grateful if somebody posts a glossary of terms somewhere. In particular, terms like corssovers, difference between 1, and 2 channel amps, ported subs (or was it "portable" as in "removeable" subs - have seen the term "ported" used too much w.r.t. sub). I should confess that I had to guess that "subs" meant sub woofers, and not submarines.
When I just joined this forum, I did not know about co-axials and components (not even that such things existed).

amplifier which have one output at 0V are referred to as Single ended output amps. one terminal has constant ( 0 ) voltage , while the other varies. this is what a single channel of a 2 or 4 channel amp looks like . because you have two terminals which are at the same voltage, they can be shorted together.

Does this mean that there could be 2 channel amps with three terminals - one each for left / right outputs and one 0 V?
I guess that a list of possible products AND features to look out while shopping for car audio components too is in order.
Not too long back, I used to wonder why people were using amps in addition to the HU output. And after seeing some posts, I see features like "X ready" and "Y ready" especially w.r.t. to HUs.
