Does the h.u really give better s.q

I mean if u want to get real. All this stuff can be corrected with other aftermarket equipment like external EQ's, Crossovers, processors, and other things. I mean if have like $1200 u could get an jensen and make it sound like an dennon, with other aftermarket products added on to it.

I dont think a $100 Jensen will ever sound like a $3500 Dennon

I set my gain by eye...you know that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Try setting it by ear sometime....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

what i was talking about with noise issues wasnt meant for the voltage but the higher end decks. most higher decks do have 4v or higher outputs.

higher voltage allows a hotter signal over the run of the patch cables-

hotter signal leads to lower gain settings, amp doesnt fight for signal to make rated power

if you are inferring that high voltage alone reduces noise, you are wrong. Its done collectively with gain setting. If anything has to do with signal induced noise from the HU it would be the output impedance of the preouts, which affects the purity of signal tranfer- the lower, the better- not the voltage itself...

nothing in a HU itself pinpointed is liable for SQ....its a collective chain of components and how they are put together. Build quality is not always a determinant- Nak hu's are notorious for serene SQ, but not quite put together the best- they have mediocre QC history..

1. It was a joke2. I do set it by ear

3. Using a DMM to set it gave to much output at to little volume....

On 14/40 it gets plenty loud.

And to comment on the low ohm preouts, why do you think Eclipse always adds " low 55ohm preouts" to their features.

Most companies dont have that low

lol , i was joking too....i figured i'd capitalize on your choice of words...hehe

Because its note worthy. They are not half as s preouts, they are high voltage AND low impedance . Check most of the revered , pricier Sq decks around.... naks(4v/55ohm), Denon's (50hm), RF 9240 (8v/50ohm)drz9255 (4v/55ohm), Sony ES....its not a cheap thing to add to your everyday decks.

Trust me most companies dont want you to look for their impedance specs on their decks...

Dude, 3.5max 6-spd owned this thread.

Good job explaining.

I dont know you well enough to tell if you are joking or not.

At least pioneer lists the ohm of their preouts on most of the H/U's they make

6.5V 100ohm
