I have found amps that accept speaker level inputs are the high distortion
amps...low quality......

not true neccessarily, a rated 25 watt per channel head unit usually only
produces 7 or so watts RMS which equates to about 5 volts. Any of the
better amps today will accept 9 or more volts on the input rail. Though
there are exceptions.

The amp that I have does not have speaker level inputs it only allows
200mv-5.0v(line level) thus if I use a speaker level output to go directly
to the amp I need to have that reduced to somewhere between
200mv-5.0v..this
will add distortion. You cannot directly hook a speaker level signal from
a
head unit to the normal line level inputs on an amp....you will fry your
amp. My question is....What is the output voltage supplied to the speakers
and or amp from the back of the factory Infinity? If it uses a outboard
amp, I would assume the output is somewhere btwn 200mv and 5.0v...is this
the case?

hahahahahaha.....I don't want your job, cuz I have to do it part time
and hate it.... Our LAN and Wan is a head ache every day. I did skip
over that gain point. I kind thought it was implied in the distortion
comment. Couldn't you include volume and gain in the same sentence as
interchangeable??? Isn't the volume a type of rheostat that controls
the output levels of the internal amps??? Any given amp (circuits not
that thing you use in your car for Mo Power) will have an output defined
by its circuit design????? I thought the volume/gain just controlled
what went into the circuit thus determining what is spit out of the
circuit???? If you pump the gain up, then you start to distort the
signal in, thus a bad signal now amplified shooting out???? I used the
Max power less than speaker RMS, so I didn't receive any funny spikes
that could cause damage.... I think most home-do-it-yourself-ers match
max to max and push the envelope sometimes. Any how...What is a MECP???
I know what MSCE, and MCE, CE, and all those other network related mumbo
jumbos are.... I personally went for a CE/EE, but slept through the EE
junk, man it was boring....hahahahahaha..... Never did care much for
amps, rectifiers, bridges, band bass filters, and on, and on, and on....
Although I loved feed back, all kinds, yeah Jimmy bring it home baby,
hahahahaha..... Can you hear Jimmy???? hahahahahaha.....

Output level doesn't really matter, any of the decent amps out
there today
have strong enough inputs to handle the new 4+ volt pre in.
Just set the input gains correctly and you can feed it a CLEAN
Speaker
level.
FYI. I am a MECP Master installer, Just not working in that
industry any
more. I am now a network(Wan) Engineer.

So, what you are saying in theory is.......The factory Infinity
CD/Tape/AM/FM has line level outputs....I could run that
directly to an
amp.
Do we have any Mopar Service people out there to verify the
output level?

The top end from Mopar is supposed to be amped already.... Or
at least
have a nicer built in stereo amp.... Either way someone is more
than
willing to shoot me if I ever replace my factor system....
hahahahahahahaha..... It was one of the major selling points of
the
car.... I can blast my beach boys and annoy all of the local
bass
heads, hahahahaha.... I have already caught the attention of
several
trying to figure me out. Number one sell point, the Solar
Yellow it is
painted, hehehehe....

Alpine makes one I think. The factory Infinity is pretty
good,
but it
doesn't have line level outputs for an amp, I am thinking
about
running my
factory Infinity and putting on a speaker to line level
converter if I can
find on that doesn't add too much distortion.

Thanks for the info Mike. Not ready for an amp as of yet, I
was
just
wondering how much you wanted for it. I have to pick up the
DEH
86 1st,
but gota finish my grill first. You know of anything thats
as
good as
the 86 but can play tapes and CD's? Bob Nichols
