    Yes, it has 2 pairs of RCA outs for your needs. You can get the real specs from the Kenwood website or Crutchfield who most likely will have great diagrams for this.

    Doesn't the 5120 only have one preamp output?

    It's one Front Preout and one Rear Preout/Subwoofer Preout, so you could run a 2 channel amp for the front speakers and a sub amp for your sub...

    I do not see anything in the owners manual about needing an antenna for the GPS. Am I missing some thing here? If you had to install a GPS antenna where did you get yours and where did you locate it? I do not plan to use the XM antenna and was wondering if it could be used for the GPS? Thanks in advance.

    Yeah its awesome, EXCEPT!!!!! No sub output with rear out put. Does anyone know what that audio/video out put is used for? It sucks that I can not run the front and rear differently and have rca's for the subs. The rear/sw sucks butt!

    Not going to brag.
    My GPS mouse is hidden. When the HU is out, you'll see that there is a little shelf in the far back which allows the mounting of the GPS directly under the dash. It works just fine through the plastic dash.

I had it half together and it sounded fine, but i pulled out the pac swi jack since i couldnt get it to work, put everything back together, and now this....im thinking/hoping its just a loose wire or something.
