sean 371 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 K so I'm running an entry-level Pioneer h/u. It's fine for now, theres no real reason to change it, except for the fact that it has 2.2v pre outs. So I'm looking into getting a line driver. This is somewhat of a new realm for me, so I thought I'd ask you guys. Who makes some reputable line drivers? I'm not going all out with this, I know Audiocontrol has around 5 different boxes I could throw in there. So what do you guys recommend? Just to boost my rca voltage.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 either go w/ audio control or try to match the brand of your amp. What will you be running?

sean 371 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 RF t10001bd. I'm still undecided on the speaker amp. Thinking about a PA SL4-1000. Or a hifonics ZXi 6406. Anything that has between 80 and 100 watts per channel at 4 ohms. So seeing as I'm running two amps, and two different manufacturers, I think the audiocontrol might do it. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6361.html Is there anything cheaper than $160? I know this will make a huge difference, so I don't mind paying it, but I'm just wondering if theres anything else that'll get it done. This one looked real nice too, $230 though: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7195.html A couple links to some box builds: Tahoe Box 1, Tahoe Box 2, Nissan Titan, VW GTI, Mini-Bump, Hummer H2, Ford F-150 My own car builds (current setup --- under construction): Overall Thread, Kickpods, Dash, Back Doors Subwoofer Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSN2meBoom916 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I just picked up a Phoenix Gold TLD66 6 channel line driver for $100 shipped. Its not exactly what you're lookin for as you need something w/ one or 2 inputs and multiple outs-so that matrix would be better I think. A/C is great tho, and a three.1 four.1 would be good. I have an epic-160 and love it but it's basically just for the sub channels. PG & A/C make some of the best units IMO.

sean 371 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yea I think I'll spring for the extra 70 so all my signals get boosted. lol 13v would increase my current voltage sixfold.

BAGGEDBIRDS.com Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 if you want to increase your voltage why not get a preamp/eq that increases the voltage so get the increase and some control? I like Audiocontrol. Don't skimp on the preamp. Anything you add in the signal path has the potential to hurt the sound. 1st SMD "System of the Month" Feb. 2007 Zapco Studio 500 (2) Zapco Studio 300X Zapco Studio 204 (2) (2) FI 12ssd's w/ copper coils DLS Iridium Tweeters DLS UR2.5 MidRange FI.
