then all you need is an alpine 153 bt, has good sound quality, time alignment, 9 band parametric EQ, the works. Just no active networks which doesn't apply to you.

It tested 2.64 volts on my buddy's 153 bt. His gains werent that high to get proper output. The next one up is at 199 dollars, at that point might as well shell out 240 for a pioneer 80prs.

is there a noticable difference with higher voltage pre outs?

keep it and work on your mids and highs, mids and highs are more important IMO.

not much sound quality wise, just different gain settings that all.

Find away to get the polks components up front, get a proper head unit for better sound quality, get a decent 4 channel, deaden your doors

time align, EQ and tune your speakers and you'll appreciate music 100x more. Your sub-stage should be fine for now. The mids and highs will enhance the substage by a good bit.

Should still have a few hundred left over.

Actually, there's an alternative, this head unit has a 40 x 4 dedicated amp built in and worked pretty well for several of my buds that got it.

I'd say the polks in front and jvcs in the back, dont waste money on rears.
