Boost Head Unit before Dual amps.

[divco13]

Factory 6 disc Head unit. Has Bass & Treble slide adjustment. It is Head unit from a 2008 Dodge Viper....... Older amp with only 4 channel outputs.

I would like to run RF - RL - RR - RL. and still power a 10" dual coil Sub, retaining the adjust ablity of the four corners adjustment. All off one single 1200 watt Amp Is it possible.?????

 

One solution would be too. boost the Head unit siginal to power both Amsp... As the siginal would be weak spliting off to two different Amps

Pic is my 48 Divco

You can add a line driver to boost your output voltage

Recommendations ? Just need one to do the job, but not break the bank! ............... By no way am I an Expert in any means. or have clue !......... Thank you for you reply.

Like this ........... Amazon ................https://pac-audio.com/catalog/audio-interfacing/ld-10

Would I install the to the second Amp, or install right out of the head unit splitting off to each amp ! Again Thank you for the help.

Why would your signal be weak splitting it to two different amps? Voltage connected to parallel loads is equivalent...current is divided.

It’s a factory deck not aftermarket

at that price dude, just buy an aftermarket head unit. Factory head units are poorly made and RCA outputs are 10x better than boosted sh*tty speaker level signals.

jvc 340bts for 60 dollars will make everything sound 10x better and make your sub hit properly.

Is it the Viper radio with GPS ?

 

[divco13]

yes GPS

You’ll need a 4ch LOC converter ..it convert the speaker leads to rcas

The part you need is a PAC LP7-4

View attachment 26557332This is a single Din radio. Has no RCAs. SRT10/VIPER

Does have GPS/ NAV .....This is a DCX Factory head unit.

RCA Conversion has been already completed on present system.

Need advice the best way to Boost Pre Amp signal

Leaning toward using these. ...... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003LWV77Y/?coliid=IA2JN0U5WA009&colid=DZUUQMAD8OD&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

Your amplifier is a 4ch amplifier correct ? If so what amplifier are you using Brand and Model

 

[divco13]

CRX: I thank you for your help. I do appreciate it !

Here is what I have

#1 AMP Plye 600w 4 Ch 4/3/2/ch

#2 amp Alpine 200w mfp-f200 4/3/2/ channel

The reason for Bootsing Pre Amp signal, is that the #2 Amp has a wire run on 18ft to back of the Divco

Would be using the Line Booster's Pre Amp.. Between Head unit and both Amps as the siginal is split too each amp.

It would be Head unit -Boosters - split to each amp - RCAs from each amp to speakers

Between the two amps you’ll definitely need to use the Alpine MRP F200 ...PYLE amps are very poorly made ..I’m unsure what wire your talking about on the Alpine ..I don’t think that model has a remote gain knob

After Market Head units are **** ugly. No after market radio goes with styling of the Interior. They look like a sore thumb !
