[QUOTE="Bucknasty69, post: 8738002, member: 682336"] I recently replaced my jvc kd-x50 with pioneer avh 3500nex and in my setup head unit runs through dayton audio dsp408 then to nvx vadm4 for highs nvx jad800.4 for mids and nvx vad 2700.1 for 2 vcw12 subs. I have upgraded to 350 amp alternator and done big 4 upgrade with all nvx 1/0 ofc cable also used same for power run to amps and ground. The power and ground are ran through nvx xcap10 capacitor which has built in distro block. So my problem is that after installing pioneer head unit I was getting no sound except a very muted subwoofer rumble. So I started checking signal path and at the head unit I'm only getting .5 to .6 volts ac at all of the rca pre outs at full volume when specs say 6 volt pre outs. I messed around with it until I was ready to burn the whole thing so I finally gave up and put my jvc back in and now that thing is doing the same. It tests at about .25 to .27 volts ac at full volume and is supposed to be 2 volt pre outs and again get very muted subwoofer and absolutely nothing from mids or highs.
