[QUOTE="FoxPro5, post: 5832134, member: 562649"] I just searched this topic...."preout voltage" and got 20 threads. Here are the cliffs since you're a lazy ***... 1) No, higher preout voltage doesn't give you better "SQ" 2) Most HU's DO make their rated numbers if you measure them correctly 3) Pre out voltages are rated at MAX output, just like some amplifiers 4) You will almost NEVER see full rated preout voltage out of a HU when playing music. 5) 2v is plenty to drive your signal 6) A combination between high preout voltage and low output impedance from the HU typically results in a lower noise floor and higher S/N ratio [/QUOTE]
