    Audiocontrol three.1 with cd43/c43

    I think this is the combo I'm going with and am curious to how people have mounted the audiocontrol pre-amp.

    I was thinking the glove box would be a nice out of the way place, but am I defeating the purpose if I use the volume control on the deck rather than the pre-amp?

    Or is the 6XS an option? Any help appreciated.

    6XS has all the advantages of the Three.1, plus separately mountable sub level control.

    Keep in mind the CD43 puts out like 8VRMS on its speaker level outputs, which are actually intended to run an amp.

    You don't really need either, depending on what amp setup you want to go with.

      I'd be good running a four channel to the front components, a separate amp to sub. Rears are really not even needed in an e30, right?

      If I were to use a Memphis pr4.50 to run front components and a pr1.500 with a remote gain controller, my only real drop off from using an audiocontrol 6xs or three.1 is the lower vrms - right? And this basically means I don't get the peak output from the amps...?

        The Memphis amps will reach full output with 1V RMS, or less. What higher voltages do is allow lower gain settings reducing system noise.
