I know that is a really awesome HU.... but like I say, I've found that a lot of Dayton 408 users have reported problems with HU's of 5 volts or higher.... Plus, the backup camera option (which coincidentally, I came about an inch from backing in to BMW SUV yesterday) Besides all this, I think ANY new HU is going to improve my system like night and day, as I've had issues with my current Kenwood HU for a long time..... which became even more obvious this morning when I turned all my bass boost controls down to zero (on the HU and my amp) and then had to set my amp gain to like 95%, which obviously is a problem. Honestly, I think my HU output is way lower than it should be from 1-30, then, once it gets to 31 - 35 it jumps up WAY loud..... to about what you would expect with the gain set to 95%.... Stupid. Can't wait to get that POS out of there, and replaced with something that functions properly. Amazing it can sound as good as it does, when I work around these issues. That’s crazy. Most all the newer good head units have 5v preouts. Older good head units have 4v preouts. Look into a kenwood excelon kdc-x998 or kenwood excelon kdc-x997. Or find a newer head unit with preouts that aren’t 5v. Like you said, any head unit is better than what head unit you currently have. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
