[QUOTE="VQ35max, post: 2099403, member: 569519"] Yes totally true, my onboard audio puts out ~1V, the sound card even less. You need to use a line driver to boost it, the one I got puts out ~3wrms and cost me ~35 bucks. Forgot which model but I can check if you're interested in knowing. Me personally, I'm going carPC+HU just because I like to play cd's and still have radio. If I was a baller I'd get a mini-ITX with the PC directly behind the touchscreen and a slot load DVD burner underneath the screen all fiberglassed into the dash nicely and a nice EQ unit to tune everything how I like. However, I'm not a baller so I'm running a Shuttle XPC with a M2-ATX 160W PSU in the trunk and about to put a HU back in so I can still make adjustments and play a cd without loading one into the dvd in the trunk.
