I'm told there is none.
but you can still hook up a amp to it to run subs etc. As some car hi fi shops will sell a connection of some sort to do it.

You dont need RCA outputs,
Drop into your local Strathfields, They will give you the lowdown.

You just need an AMP that supports both types of Input
Rca + the other one (i forget now)
yeah :D

I tried to use the head unit to run an amp and speakers and had nothing but trouble.

My post is in the Audio section have a read it contains alot of info you will need.

My advice if you want to put up with feedback, whinging noise etc go ahead. If you dont replace the headunit. Thats what I did in the end after trying lots of different things.

After some research on a stereo system its not really a big deal, i mean it sucks in some ways (some amps turn on via rca options), but other than that a lot of amps accept the stereo input straight in.

Kenwood KAC-8452 4 X 70 WATTS RMS: $400 (main amp)
Kenwood KAC-7252 (2X250)/(1X500): $400 (sub amp)
Kenwood KFC-W2509 10" (175WATT RMS): $150 (each set of two would be nice)

What do you all think?
