Hi,

I tried searching the archives, but didn't find anything on this topic.

I'm looking to get a CD-43 and plan on upgrading to aftermarket amps and speakers later on. Can the factory headunit's output be matched to aftermarket amps? Do I need a line level converter? Or, are there any quality amps that take speaker level inputs? I have an a/d/s amp that I would like to use, but I heard that line level converters add noise, etc.

TIA

Bill

Yeah line converters do introduce some noise compared to RCA's but it's the only way to do what you're trying to do...
