My car has a Kenwood KDC-MP222 cd reciever in it. I want to get some bass in my car by hooking a computer subwoofer up to it. The reciever has stereo RCA preouts (not for sub) and I plan on hooking those up to the subwoofer. The sub has a built in crossover and a built in amp powered by 12 volts, so I won't have any trouble running it off the car battery. My concern is this:
Will the preout levels vary with the selected volume on my reciever? Or will the sub always play at the same level with this configuration? I am worried that the sub may play at constant volume even when I turn down the other speakers. I don't want to take the time to set this up if its not going to work. If anyone out there knows if the preouts adjust with the speaker outputs on a reciever please let me know. Thanks.
