pioneer9412 Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Is there really that much of a difference in sound quaility between 2 volt and 4 volt preamp outputs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford302Redneck Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 I've seen a lot of post lately about preout voltage. We need a sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanz Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 yes.....that way you dont have to turn up the gain as much on a 4v then a 2v. and gives it a cleaner signal That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

Ford302Redneck Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Omg. Wrong and wrong. Please don't answer if your not 100% on a answer. Just cause you have to turn up the amp more with 2 volts than you would with 4 volts, don't mean its going to clip. Preout voltage is for gain matching that's it.

Ford302Redneck Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 There isn't any "dirt" flowing through the RCA's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel4055 Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 There isn't any "dirt" flowing through the RCA's... Do you have any idea what I meant by dirt?

Ford302Redneck Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 What's the gain knob for? To match the output voltage coming from your headunit. And how does less volts pick up noise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
