I know about DC-DC converters as I own an Eclipse amp myself
 DC-DC Converters are used to provide higher rail-to-rail voltage to generate much higher output power for the amplifier. Typically a car battery only provides 12~13.5v which is not nearly enough to power 4 speakers running at 100w rms each. The solution is to step up the voltage from the battery to something higher, usually balanced pos/neg rails for the amplifier itself. This has nothing to do with the head unit's preouts, as the head unit's preouts have a supply current of their own.
