hi guys,

i have an 02 verada gtv (sweet-ass ride by the way) and i was wondering whether or not you can hook an amp up to the exisiting head unit.

is it as easy as with an aftermarket head unit?

i have heard some talk about low level and high level inputs... can someone shed some light on this for me?

cheers in advance,

Jazack

I got 2 subs and a amp installed when i still had my stock head unit it didnt sound too bad but that didnt last long as i got a new head unit about a week later.

Hi and congrats on the sweet ride!

Simple answer: Yes you can.

To make this easier to understand:
RCA (what your amplifier needs as inputs) is LOW level.
The speaker wire outputs from your headunit are HIGH level.

First you need to buy a high level to low level converter.
High level to Low level converter (http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=AA0480&CATID=&keywords=RCA&SPECIAL=&form=KEYWORD&ProdCodeOnly=&Keyword1=&Keyword2=&pageNumber=&priceMin=&priceMax=&SUBCATID=)

Then some RCA cables to go from this to your amp and your all sorted!
