I just picked up an AppRadio 4 for my 04 Jetta. I currently have an Alpine CDE-W235BT to an Alpine MRX-F65 Feeding Alpine Type-R components and an Alpine MRX-M110 feeding 2 Alpine Type-R 12D2s.
My Alpine HU only has per-amp outputs for the mono block amp so I'm currently using the speaker level inputs on the 4 channel amp. The AppRadio has pre amp outputs for everything. I plan on running new 12G speaker wire from the 4 channel amp to all the speakers this spring. While I'm running new wire should I run RCAs from the HU to the 4 channel amp? Will pre amp outputs from the HU give me better sound or should i just stick with speaker level inputs?
