RCA Preout Help!


Recommended Posts

how many preouts are on the hu

do you have the rcas going directly from hu to your amp??

There are 3 pre outs. 1 front 1 rear and two black cords no color on either for the subwoofer pre out.

Yes directly

Have a DMM?

Set it to AC Volts, disconnect RCA's from amp, play a test tone and look at the voltage on the RCA's.

Compare the two HU's and see if they're different.

did that to no avail

Max the amps LPF. Put the HU LPF on 80. Since that sony headunit is the very low low end of theirs i doubt it's doing 2v in the rcas. You answered it for your self when you tested it in your car.

Rest In Peace mother.

I'm just getting a line driver then. IDK why that sony would have a 2v preout. Thats so minimal

2v is technically plenty. It just comes down to which model will actaully do 2v. Hell play a test tone and use your DMM and see how much voltage is actually going through it.

Rest In Peace mother.
