Pioneer AVIC Z150BH?

Has anyone tried this unit and would you recommend it? I am mainly looking for a headunit that has good subwoofer output voltage. The navigation is just a bonus, I'm more concerned with the audio output. Just wondering if this is a good unit with audio in mind

Right around $1000 directly from Sonicelectronix. I have the Eclipse AVN 726E but the voltage on it does not impress me (5v preouts but seems less than 2v). Is there any way I can test the voltage of the RCA outputs?

On every head unit you have to turn the volume all the way up, or very close to maximum, to get rated pre-out voltage. If you can't set your gains with the volume that high then you need to turn the gain higher on the sub amp to compensate. I test pre-outs for voltage and clipping with an oscilloscope.

I agree, I have the avic 120bt
