Hey does anyone know if the GS400's stock, Nakamichi, and/or the Navi sound system has pre-amp outputs? I'm thinkin about putting in my Digital DSP along with swapping out the 12" sub (Naki only, right?) and amp for my Fosgates.

Can anybody shed some light on this situation? Thanks!

Kevs..

If my memory serves me correct,

I dont think the Nak or Pioneer amp on the GS has any preamp outputs at all.... usually what is done is an LLC is attached to the speaker outs of the amp then connected to an aftermarket amp to new speakers (sub or separates...) Check out the electronics part of this forum if you haven't already... I'm sure it's addressed quite thoroughly there...

Amp is in the trunk and I saw RCA plugs on it. Why cant those be used?

Salim,

RCA plugs on a STOCK system amp?!?! Lexus must have lost their mind!

Anyways, which amp do you have that has RCA plugs on it?

Manny,

You're 100 percent right! NO LEXUS ever had any pre outs that were of the RCA type! I've looked through pretty much all of the electrical schematics at the Lexus shop and NONE of them EVER had RCA outs.
