: the truth....Aren't the PAC's just high to low pass? richard cheese 05-11-2007, 06:27 AM I have been talking to several installers in Bakersfield about getting my system installed. ALL 4 of them have told that the PAC 24 is just an overpriced high to low pass. if true, then the sound quality would be worse than compared to a deck with pre-outs? any opinions? yamaha 05-19-2007, 06:33 AM I believe that the information you are recieving is true. You will recieve better sound with an aftermarket deck with 4 volt or better RCA's or install a processer that will control multiple amps etc. A processer can be integrated with the factory deck and you have very good control over your system design. Audio Controls makes them! Great Product in my opinion! DURAtotheMAX 05-19-2007, 07:59 AM No the PAC is not this. I have never seen ONE stereo installer that understands how these factory Bose systems work :rolleyes: The bose head unit outputs LOW level signals, but they are wired with a sheilded ground, isolated +, etc, so you need the PAC adapter to extract the proper 4volt pre-amp RCA signal from them that is needed to interac with any aftermarket amp. cheese look around on ebay, you can get an AOEM-GM24 for about 30 bucks. Its definetly worth it ;) Ben C.A.P 05-19-2007, 08:18 AM agreed and well put ! bobd 05-19-2007, 11:55 AM No the PAC is not this.

Not one installer that I've talked to has any idea about the PAC and they all say it will sound like junk, it's just a hi/lo converter. Just did a sub and amp along w/ the new door speakers and amp I did last year- once again the installer(different from the last one I used) said WOW I guess you were right, and these guys are JL certified. It can be very frustrating. | ||
