so if an HU only has 2v pre-output, does that mean the subs wont hit as hard as compared to a 5v? is that what that means? thanks guys

Nah, that's what the gain's for. That just indicates the signal strength from the HU. Once it gets to your amp, you adjust the input sensitivity (just in case: that's what the gain control is). A higher voltage signal through the RCAs will be less susceptible to noise.

Don't worry about it. Noise as in DC input from from your power wire. A low pre-out voltage won't mean you will have a problem with noise, but you just have to keep your RCAs away from the power wire. I believe mine are 2 volt, and I can only hear a little noise when no music is playing. Twisted pair RCAs are a good idea.
