Stock CD player
First off, great to see acura-cl.com back again!
For the stock CD player on a '99 CL, I'm taking an educated guess and just assuming that it does not have RCA outs, that it just has line-level outputs on the back. True? If I wanna hook up 2 pairs of RCA's, is there to sets of line-out's so I can hook up converters?

no but u can buy things that take speaker level outputs to rca but i dont really know how good the sound quality is when u do that. thats what u mean by converters right? and there is front and rear outputs so u could have a front and rear setup i guess.

I wanted to improve the miserable stock Bose system, yet keep the original deck for appearance, security system, and that cool button on the steering wheel. So I have the outputs converted (you're right, no RCAs) and run into a crossover, then one amp for the interior speakers and another for the subs. I replaced the interior Bose speakers with JL Audio and also have 8" long-throw JL subs in custom box in trunk. It sounds incredible. The stock player sounds real good, don't replace it.

I will be using an amp putting out 85x2 to the front speakers. Like C030CL, I would like to keep the original deck mainly for stealth purposes at this time, and I really like those steering wheel controls! And if there are two outputs on the back, then that will help connecting 2 pairs of RCA's. May as well run two RCA's now in case the deck gets replaced sometime next year...
