[QUOTE="jamster, post: 16277"] I have modified head units in the past to fit line-outs, with moderate success, but they almost never sounded noticeably better than using a decent quality (that's the trick) line-out converter (or an amp with a decent high-level input). Just make sure you set the system up with enough gain that you don't distort the output from the deck (amp gain too low, turn the HU up, and it clips its outputs). Oscilloscope is great help for doing this. I am very far removed fom car audio, couldn't comment on components. Had a set of MB QUart DSD216 in a car a while back, they were OK. [/QUOTE]
