[QUOTE="hoss, post: 2114605, member: 549860"] because power doesent run straight through the HU... the HU creates the 12v turn on signal, it generates a 12v signal, with extremely low current. the 12v does not simply pass through the HU and go to the remote wire, its part of what the unit itself does. my particular head unit at the time was capable of three 4v pre-outs, and 4 channels of 45watts of power. do you think that these 4v pre-outs and 45 watts of power were generated by the cars 12v system?
