hey i was wondering how good the ac delco cd players are my friend gave me the one out of his 94 buick lasabre because he got a new one and i wanted it cause it was din and a half i havent got it hook up yet cause i need an antenna adapter but what should i expect out of it my car has the factory 6by9 speakers in the back. what do u think it will be like?

also down teh road i plan on getting an amp for my car if i still plan on using this cd player is there even a way i can hook an amp up to it cause i didnt see any pre outs to hook one up ti at all??

 

doesnt any one no???

 

not a clue about that '94 one, but the units that came in ~96+ trucks and such are very good. They are the same ones that come in the later 4th gen f-bodies as well as vettes. One to avoid is what comes in '97+ Grand Prix's, they are total trash...

 

I had one out of a 96 Impala...it sounded pretty good, until the cd player quit working. I was not really surprised, as it had quit on my dad once before.

 

hey i just got a 680 watt jenson amp for free and would liek to use it with this cd player but the only problem is it doesnt have pre outs to send the signal to the amlifier. is there soem kind of an adapter i can buy for it or what i know there has to be cause my freind hooked an amp up to his factory cd player in his sun fire and that didnt have pre outs eather.

 

is there an adapter i can buy for this sterio so i can hook my amplifier to it. thanks for the help in advance.

 

line out converters. can get them at most places that sell car audio stuff. check first to see if the amp has line level inputs. many do. jensen's not the best of stuff, but if it was free, you can use it. just dont expect the 680w it advertizes....

 

what do the line leval inputs look like and also how much does the adapter usualy cost for what im trying to do. its sux kindof cause i also have to get an antena adapter cause my 83 antena hook up isnt the same as the 94 cd players. i already had to buy a new wiring harness for it lol this is starting to suck.

is this a good cdplayer to have i like it alot cause its din and a half so the install doesnt look like a hack job it looks factory. my car has factory 6by9 inch speakers that will be being hooked up to it also eventualy im going to upgrade them to prolly sony explode.

 

Line level inputs? You mean speaker level inputs?

Speaker level inputs look like regular terminals; they connect to the speaker outputs of a factory radio. The sound isn't as clean as line level inputs- which is RCA connectors.

A line out converter takes speaker level inputs and converts them into line level outputs. Then you connect the outputs to the amp using regular RCA cables... again, won't sound as clean as using line outputs from the very start. The more you crank the volume, the more the system will want to distort.

Go to http://www.google.com and type in "amplifier line output converters" (don't type the double quotes), you'll find tons of information.

 

my bad, yeah, you're right. i hate making mistakes, even if they only come once every few years or so
