It's not neccessary because this will not allow you to keep your hands on the wheel as you make and receive calls. Once you finishing talking on the phone the stereo will automatically switch back to whatever type of music or programming that was playing prior to phone call.
You must have 'tape monitor' button on your stereo Hook play in from equalizer out and rec out to eqalizer in. Then press tape monitor button.
A car's graphic equalizer is used for the stereo. The equalizer helps you achieve a more pleasant-sounding experience from your speakers.
If you replace the factory stereo and the van has a factory equalizer, you will need to remove the equalizer as well. The factory stereo/equalizer package is essentially one unit in two different cases. Neither is designed to work without the other. Best of my knowledge, neither will work without the other.
Not to the outputs. A band-pass equalizer works on input signals. To put it simply: if your stereo is the source of the sound, you would have to open the stereo up with schematics of its electronics in hand and find a suitable place to "pop in" an equalizer. If your stereo is only taking a signal from some other device and amplifying it (in essence doing the job of an amplifier with external signal source), put the equalizer between the source and the stereo. Please note that an antenna is NOT an "external source" - the radio frequencies are decoded INSIDE the stereo, and only then produce a valid "input signal" - all within the electronics of the stereo.
Put the E.Q. between the pre amp and the main amp.
They all will do a job just fine. But I prefer Audio Control.
If you are not happy with the sound of your car stereo, you can always buy a car audio equalizer. For the best quality sound this is a good option. It does come with a price though.
I have a silverado and there is a small silver box mounted under the dash between the radio and the equalizer. the radio, equalizer and antennae plug into that.
Using a graphic equalizer setup and calibration disc in conjunction with a decibel meter is the best way to balance your graphic equalizer so that your system has a precise, accurate sound.
DPS = Digital Processing System Not sure about EEO but it may have something to do with the sound equalizer.
2 to each speaker, 1 ground, 1 keyed power, 1 illumination or memory.
If your boyfriend is a serious car audio freak, the Pioneer DEQ-9200 3 Band Parametric Equalizer is a good gift if he is looking to trick out his stereo system.
