ChevyBoy Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 There shouldn't be a difference in sound... what was difference you found with 2v preouts? yes there will be. the higher the preouts, the less gain you'll have to use on the amp. btw, doesnt your epic-160 act as a line driver?

LSN2meBoom916 Posted December 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 hope you dont have a iphone because it does not work with the cable Nope. No interest in an Iphone @ all. There shouldn't be a difference in sound... what was difference you found with 2v preouts? I didnt think so either. I went from a 4v Alpine deck to a 2v Alpine and lost almost 3db. and....turning my gains up doesnt bring it back. The mids aren't as clear w/ the lower voltage either. yes there will be. the higher the preouts, the less gain you'll have to use on the amp.btw, doesnt your epic-160 act as a line driver? 1: correct "in theory" but I couldn't "get that 2-3db back" w/ more gain so I dunno 2: Well, the epic-160 does help but I had it before too so it's apples to apples, it doesnt make up for te voltage drop thats for sure. Plus-the voltage drop effected mids and subs so i need it across the board. I DO also have a 6 channel line driver but I havn't had time to try it out yet (PG TLD66) But we'll see when I get time to pick up some more rca's and re-rout everything.

Forevrbumpn Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 niceee....... get that installed yet? I used to love Kenwoods back in the late 90s, but just grew away from them on the 2000's any good? Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevrbumpn Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 I still remember my KDC-6011 deck back in 99' I Detached the faceplate, and mounted it in the cieling in my Ford Windstar (was married), used phone cord to link it to the deck in the console, and had my Kenwood indash 1din EQ in the original dash location, my first attempt at customizing, and came out good Quote I have a ritual called "terminator".
