Which is "better" 2v, or 4v? Im looking at buying an Alpine CDM-9823 unit for my 95 talon, but I'm not sure as to whether I should spend another 150 bucks and just get the CDA-9830...(the CDA-9825 doesn't fit)
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance! |

Uhh, hello? Anyone?
Seriously, its just a 2 letter answer. "2v" or "4v". I will be running a single mono amp on a subwoofer output if that's any help to you. |

4 volt is better there is a less chance of any unwanted noise in the system |

Also, pre-voltage is basically the amount of volts that are kicked out into your amp. The higher, the better. |

4V is better. 2V won't necessarily generate audible noise in your system, but it's more likely to. Also, with 4V allows your gains to be set lower, meaning the noise floor is lower b/c the amp doesn't generate noise into the system by turning the gain up. |
