I installed a pioneer avh-p5000dvd, which only has 2 sets of RCAs and the output signal is 4V. However, I have an Eclipse XA-4000 Class D amp (4ch for my Focal separates in doors) and a JL 500/1 Class D amp for my JL10W7 and 1 farad cap.
My dilemma is this: The sound doesn't seem nearly as clear and loud at 80% volume on the Pioneer HU. I previously had an 8V Eclipse HU w/3 sets of RCAs. I have read the past topics about line drivers and am wondering if that is the BEST solution to this problem. I do not have any audible "Hissing".
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
I already miss Eclipse...

Loud Subwoofers only, do not make a quality car audio system, especially when they are worth more than your "car"
