hey guys,

just want your opinion...first and foremost im not after an extreme SQ system...just want something above average...whilst my family was over in teh states i asked them to buy me a JVC 7" double din cd player, inadvertily i assumed it was 3 pre outs, upon reading the specs again it only has 1 line out...

so my question is how much would this affect the system...

im using a 4x150wrms kicker am where i plan to run the front splits with 2 channels and bridging the last two for the sub. the amp has a bass controller.

besides the obvious of beable to fade the system...is it detrimental to the SQ?

should i try and sell it off and purchase the model above it...

thanks

well it only has one. so you cant fade between front and rear. not a big deal, as most "proper" SQ systems only have a front stage.

it also means you cant adjust the bass level on teh headunit.

all you will need to do is split the RCAs for the sub.

also, maybe a mod can move this to general section, not *really* and sq quesiton

build the system with what u have already , it will give you insight into what you wanna do next,then swap out components, that way u are up and running.

Top SQ systems have time allignment on the sub atleast and 5 band PEQ or more, if u really want to SQ your car u would use these 2 features.

thanks guys, just browsing through the site, and read out that players from the states the radio wont work...ARGH....

looks like paperweight now

Who uses the radio anyway?

99% of good amps have pass through, and their own crossovers so you can use them to piece your system. You can build a very competitive car with a single line out.

For example, McIntosh MX406, MX4000 (and the MDA4000) as well as the MX5000 (and the MDA5000) all have a single line out. Pretty sure the dual din tube Panny only has a single line out too.

Try to find me higher end headunits then those!!!
