Berto Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 So I have a carputer (not installed yet) and I've seen alot of people run them in a a carputer/HU combo to get a higher voltage to the amps, 4v+ as opposed to the maybe 2v from the carputers. I was wondering how to set up the HU with a carputer and how that works, volume and controls wise. And can it be done with any HU? It's the first carputer I'm gonna use so I just want to make sure I do it right while still getting as much from my system as I can.

I got it used off CACO. TEAM FLEX ISSUES Car: 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 24" Rims HU: 7" Carputer, Planet Audio EQ, iPhone.

Torres Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 ^^ correct. i have my volume maxed out on my carputer so that way it is a consistent volume adjustment from my head unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted January 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 ^^ correct. i have my volume maxed out on my carputer so that way it is a consistent volume adjustment from my head unit. Alright cool. So I can use just about any unit with AUX input. Connect the carputer to the AUX input on the HU. Then run all my RCAs, remote, and all to the amps like a normal install right.

I have my mac mini wired and ready for a cd player then doing aux and using it to run the sub and mid amps. Now I'm trying to figure out a good cd player I'm doing it the same exact way that you are doing it.
