Alright here we go. I recently bought a 1998 Range Rover, and I want to upgrade the stereo. I would like to keep the stock head unit so I can use the steering wheel controls, and also because it will look cleaner this way. The stock setup is actually decent on its own, there is a harman/kardon amp in each door for each speaker and one in the back for a small subwoofer. Now I think I already have everything figured out and ready to go, just use some LOCs on the wires before the stock amp to an aftermarket amp and into some good speakers. Same deal with the subwoofer.
Here's where I run into a problem. I would like to also run this through a good high quality EQ, as I won't have anything built into the head unit to do this for me. (I want this one, its cool :D http://www.crutchfield.com/cgi-bin/...a=0&cc=01&avf=N) I think the outputs from the stock head unit send out a specific frequency range to each speaker respectively. Lows to the woofer, mids and highs to the fronts and rears. If I use some fancy wiring with LOCs and some RCA Y adapters, will I be able to take the outputs from the headunit and compile a full freq range signal into one rca signal cable to connect to the input on the EQ? Will the overlapping frequencies mess with eachother, or will the power go up with each extra signal wire spliced in via Y cables? Will it just plain sound ****ty? What do you guys think? |
