Up from the usual 5v, very VERY nice!! My friends will be happy, I usually toss all my old car audio/video stuff their way. It'll be expensive as hell, but as usual with Eclipse, it will be well worth it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andrew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 7:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Eclipse offering up CD7200 mk II in-dash head unit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</guid><description><![CDATA[What exactly is the benefit of 8V preout over 5v? 5V should be plenty to saturate any power amp...<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lejupp]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 8:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Eclipse offering up CD7200 mk II in-dash head unit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</guid><description><![CDATA[it all has to do with line noise. You are ALWAYS going to have line noise, its a pretty consistant amount. It isn't a percentage like people would think. For the sake of simplicity lets call it 1v of noise. Most wallymart specials put out a 2v pre-out. Thats half (read: a cubic fuckton) of noise. 5v is 1/5 and 8v is 1/8. I realize its nowhere that simple, but most audiophiles will tell you less noise is good.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andrew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 8:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Eclipse offering up CD7200 mk II in-dash head unit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok, but that only works if the PA has input attenuators with enough headroom.

It usually takes a year or so and the good ones cost around 100 bucks, but most vehicles south of the $60k pricetag will have a custom panel available eventually. <br><br>I wouldn't waste your money on this HU though... frankly it's nothing new, and even it's 8 volt preamps can't make up for Eclipse's god awful control scheme and ugly as sin displays on all but their color lcd models. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 4:17PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Eclipse offering up CD7200 mk II in-dash head unit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/eclipse-offering-up-cd7200-mk-ii-in-dash-head-unit/</guid><description><![CDATA[But you have to love their anti-theft CD-key setup.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JesusM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 9:49PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
