I i have a Pioneer avh-p5700dvd, type r 5x7's, 2 type r 12's a directed 1100d and a directed 250/4, well ever since i switched over to the pioneer avh-p5700dvd from my old avh-p6600dvd i noticed that the bass isn't as "clean" as it used to be with the other head unit, all amp settings are the same but the older pioneer had 4 volt pre-outs and the new one has 2 volt, is it the input voltage or the lower model head unit itself??? Im new to this stuff so i rely on your responses to figure all this stuff out, thanks, by the way my alpine iva-D300 is on the way ( which is also 2 volt ) should it make a difference?
yeah, i think that a higher voltage output has less distorion, but can you tell that big of a difference? you will need to turn your amp gains up to compensate for the lower input voltage.
input sensitivity needs to be readjusted on the amplifiers for the change in line voltage. Signal processing in the head unit can also be a factor, even within the same brand using two different models.
4 volt pre-outs will give a cleaner, better signal resolution than 2 volt pre-outs, but the difference shouldn't be that significant or audible.
im in the motion of installing my 4 channel amp, ive got it all done in the bak of the HU, ive got one set of RCA leads comming for that into 2 sets of y leads in the amp, i keep getting a buzzing noise over the sound.... HELP!!!
