#238649 - 22/10/2004 18:47 RCA Vs Spdif, optical ?
belezeebub addict Registered: 11/01/2001 Posts: 579	Real quick need to know how wide and tall the empeg face plate is the God of radio installs thinks he can squese a empeg and a alpine headunit into my dash ? and I don't have an Empeg to measure ? I am going to run the output from the empeg into the aux input on the alpine, do you think I would get better sound if I addedd a optical out from the empeg and ran that into the alpine or just use the rca's _________________________ ______________________________________ Do not meddle in the affairs of Network Administrators, for they are subtle and quick to anger. ______________________________________ Worlds Lamest Wb Site (mine) http://home.comcast.net/~jlipchitz/

You'd definately eliminate the risk for ground loop whine though - but proper wiring should handle that anyway. I'd try it with just the RCAs first and listen to the result, then evaluate... _________________________ /Michael
