Pre out cable for Fabia vRS symphony CD Player

If you are in the need for an external amp be it to power a sub or your speakers then you can keep your oem headunit and simply buy a cable that give you front and rear pre outs and also a switched power cable to be used to turn on an external amp. This saves money on having to buy an aftermarket headunit from the likes of sony, alpine, kenwood etc and keeps that oem look.

The cable is in fact a Blaupunkt part but it plugs straight into the back of the oem head unit. I've attached a link here http://www.bluespot.co.uk/stock/preamp.asp

I've being using the above cable since I bought my car back in 2004 with no problem. At first I was using it to power 2 amps (one for front comps the other for a sub)

By going by the Gain I've used on 2 amps now at a guess I would say the pre outs are rated at around 4v.

This shows the entire plug in all it's tri-colour glory (taken from Stu's site)


You can mix and match the three different sections - I'm currently only using the blue part for my Denison Ice>Link so the yellow would click in nicely on the other side of the socket.

And the three plugs come on the end of an OEM changer cable.
