A question on general Aftermarket HU's

[IDSkoT 5,000+ posts]

Do most of them have at least 2 RCA outs?

If not... do I have to get a splitter or something?

This is for my GF's car and I know she has a Pioneer HU, just not sure what model # so I can't look up the specs, but it's lower-end Pioneer.

O_O

That'd **** if it has no RCA's.

Most lower end hu's have only a sub pre-out.

Great idea... except I have no money.

I'm actually trying to collect from a friend so I can buy wood. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I'll be happy to take it off of your hands, of course.

if you take a picture of the head unit, someone may be able to id the model and tell ya about it or you could look it up.

If I had the unit here I'd be able to know what model it is... but it's in my gf's car... and she's at a babyshower. lmao... (No, I'm not gunna be a father. Some other unlucky guy is ^_^)

I was just wondering on my options if it's only one RCA out.

I think it might be this:

If not, something similair.

It has the Aux input in the front like that... I just don't remember the left side of the unit... I don't really drive her car that often. :\

And according to that website, it has one set of RCA for the rears... now, if that's the case... wouldn't that fck up the sound imaging? o_o

EDIT:: Can I Daisy Link them? I think that's what it's called. When you plug one pair of RCA into one amp, then run those to the other amp from the RCA-out?

Sorry if I just blew some kid's minds... Not sure what the point of RCA outs are for.

Enlighten me, oh mighty ones.

A splitter will work fine as well as daisy chaining if one of the amps has an output. And voltage is not cut in half when you split them.

Was the last part informative, or an "Unless"?

 

[dipitydoo 10+ year member]

it was a correction of a previous post about voltage being cut in half when using a splitter

Oh, forgot about that part.

Well, the build page'll get started when the equipment gets here. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
