What is the amount of current taken by car audio(cassette/MP3) unit?

I have a 24 volt system, but most of the car audio work with 12V, so in order to make it compatible, i need a converter(DC-DC 24 to 12V), for that i need to know the current rating of audio unit used in cars.What is the amount of current taken by car audio(cassette/MP3) unit?
common amounts of current for a deck in an auto is 3-5 amps, however it generally will not use this much, the decks are also usually fused at 10amps. This is based off a 12 volt American car system. I would check with the manufacturer of the unit you want to install to just make sure.
