Jskiles Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Say I have a radio that I am using outside the vehicle only for burps just competing with. How important of a role does it play since it only has one purpose? I plan on buying a new one later anyway, but I would like to hear everyones opinion. 2010 Kia Forte Koup (Slow Build) 2 Sundown SCV-3000D 2 DC XL M1 with PSI reconesFocal R-165s2 on Orion 4800-HPKenwood KDC-X798Knukonceptz OFC 1/0Audiotechnix,Fatmat and Q-mat Deadener XS power D3400 up front 3 D3100s power in trunkStock 110 amp alt 2013 Scion TC 2 Dc lvl 3s with xl coils on Soundqubed 2200 Sundown components AA 50.2 for components Pioneer FH-X700BT Knukonceptz OFC 1/0 Fatmat and Q-mat Deadener XS Power D3100 up front D925 in back Mechman 240 alt http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/189911-2013-scion-tc-build/ <Scion TC Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/174094-jskiles-forte-koup/ <Slow Kia Forte Buildhttp://www.stevemead...ockUserAgent__1 < Old build 2005 Equinox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirill007 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Important for what? Just for burps? Doesn't matter. Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jskiles Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Important for what? Just for burps? Doesn't matter. Yeah just burps. Depends .. On output voltage etc Its a shitty sony that I was going to use for testing until I got a better one Don't understand your question. Every system no matter what application has to have a source unit of some type ... I know that every application has to have a source unit. Its pretty much a stupid question. 2010 Kia Forte Koup (Slow Build) 2 Sundown SCV-3000D 2 DC XL M1 with PSI reconesFocal R-165s2 on Orion 4800-HPKenwood KDC-X798Knukonceptz OFC 1/0Audiotechnix,Fatmat and Q-mat Deadener XS power D3400 up front 3 D3100s power in trunkStock 110 amp alt 2013 Scion TC 2 Dc lvl 3s with xl coils on Soundqubed 2200 Sundown components AA 50.2 for components Pioneer FH-X700BT Knukonceptz OFC 1/0 Fatmat and Q-mat Deadener XS Power D3100 up front D925 in back Mechman 240 alt http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/189911-2013-scion-tc-build/ <Scion TC Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/174094-jskiles-forte-koup/ <Slow Kia Forte Buildhttp://www.stevemead...ockUserAgent__1 < Old build 2005 Equinox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenSchoen Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Output voltage doesn't matter when you are talking about output from the amp. That's what gain matching is for. Now output voltage can make a difference depending on the setup. More voltage going through that RCA's can help if there's any interference. The same amount of interference will still be present...but the distortion percentage of a higher voltage will be lower. But this doesn't matter for short burps.

AA98Hoe was supposed to answer since he said it. (But honestly, there shouldn't be any interference to begin with.) And as you said, it doesn't matter for burps, you could even use a cellphone. (or even better a signal generator.) What can be handy is a pauze button on the headunit. Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

never knows best Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 some competitors like to "roll" the volume up which is easiest done with a turn dial style volume knob.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
