The sven4 line level converter is the only LLC that we have found that does not introduce engine noise to the system in a Euro. inc, alpine, cali gold, and a few others. (same with BMW systems.)
For the Ultimate in Sound Quality and Signal transfer the SVEN4 is the Only Solution.
The SVEN4 was recently awarded the coveted innovations award at the 2004 Consumer Electronics Association Show.
Four channel Premium Sound Interfacing Device.
RCA level or speaker level input or output. The SVEN4 is perfectly suited for replacing the factory amplified system and retaining the OEM radio or for Premium OEM head-unit replacement. It can also be used as a standard line output converter. (LOC applications require vehicle specific sound harness--sold seperately).
NOTE: 60 watts maximum input per channel.
It all works perfectly and sounds AWESOME
I'm also using this(SVEN4)and i agree,it's excellent
tony, how much did u get the sven4 for + how much was the installation cost? do i only need this to run oem HU to amp
I got it as part of my install,think is was $170??I think you only need it if you want to add amps,sub etc.to OEM head unit not if you have aftermarket HU.
Another question.. theres going to be a bit of a time gap between the time i buy the headunit and get it installed and the time i buy the amp/speakers/sub i was curious is there any increase in soundquality when u install a new good headunit with the stock speakers? thanks.
The stock honda deck is actually not bad for an OEM unit. With the stock speakers, you probably wont notice much difference unless you listen very carefully when the vehicle is standing still.
But if you upgrade to quality speakers and use an Amp, you will probably notice a difference. I found that the stock honda unit gives out a slight hissing noise at low volume through my aftermarket 6x9's, which was inaudible with the stock 6x9's. So you may wanna get noise eliminator like the Sven4, or install a new head unit.

That is until you pop in a audiophile CD... then you will notice all sort of problems....
I've installed a system a while back, and with the help of FHRX, it may not look flash, but sounds great. Got MB Quart front splits, Rockford rears, pioneer sub, rockford+clarion amp, lotsa dynamat and a top Sony color TFT head unit. I think the biggest difference I have found comes from the bass re-inforcement from the sub. Makes ALOT of difference to me. Also, the mids and highs are clearer (although not as noticeable compared to the new-found bass). It's a worth upgrading if you plan to put in a decent investment into a good system, since as Eurodude has mentioned, the stock system isn't too bad!
