[QUOTE="maylar, post: 7649783, member: 541144"] I think there's some validity to the theory that if the source voltage is higher you need less gain at the amp and therefore attenuate any noise that might get picked up in the cables. Especially since you don't get the rated RCA level except with a 0 dB source and volume control at maximum. In my current install (allegedly 2.5 v) my sub amp gain is nearly all the way up. Luckily I use a LOC for the front stage and it has at least 4V out. I think it's also true that 4V preouts come with more SQ oriented hu models. [/QUOTE]
