    Pre-outs

    I'm looking at a couple of new HUs (two Alpines and a Panasonic) and I've got a question about the pre-out voltages... On both of the Alpines they have 2V pre-outs while the Panasonic has 5V outs. What difference will this make?

    I know that Alpine decks are supposed to be some of the best on the market but should I go with the higher pre-out voltages?

    I got the panasonic that had "5V preouts" and now I have an alpine that has 4v preouts and I have to say the alpine completely blows the panasonics in sq...

    go to a shop and listen to them and then see what to get

    ya alpine is good quality, the alpine with the 2 volt and the alpine with the 4 volt are very big differences in terms of quality, the alpine deck wit the 4 volt is in the upper class and will sound alot better and will have better controls for things. Plus it will have a cleaner signal going to ur amp for ur speakers
