I wanna do a custom case in the center console as your friend has. but a few more questions i have are what power supply would i need/ other parts?
Hey Mega,
Heres one for ya maybe two for ya..
1. By having a carputer is there a way to retain the MFSW (multi function steering wheel) controls and the DID (Driver Informtion Display) on an 05 A4 2.0?
2. Do you know what the RCA voltage output is and how would you hook up amps?
Thanks
viziers
i plan on adding the alpineH701/c701 to mine to help with the signal voltage/stereo control. Think that will help?90% of the time the preout voltage from a computer soundcard is well below what a typical voltage from a car audio head unit would be. The gains will be set considerably higher for a CarPC, make sure you know what you are doing before you crank it though.

1. There is a way i dont know if you audi fits in this catagory, although it might since its older.
maybe this?

im not sure about the DID you may want to do a search on http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/
2. That all depends on which mobo or soundcard you get. i think, im not certain, you may have to turn the gain up slightly higher than an HU would connect to.
to hook up to amp you need a 3.5mm to rca cable like this just not necessarily that long
question should be. does it sound good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gifThere are some pci cards that have 2 volts of preout and are not expensive.
you mean optical? then that would be a digital signal so yeah it would work especially with that h701 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gifwhat if the carputer has a spdif jack on it would that work?

My carputer sound just as good as any cd I'm playing in the head unit. All I"m using for a sound card is this model with the line out.
I'm in no way setup for sound quality, but it is more than acceptable.
