i had my subs hooked up on my old hu (pioneer dehp3500) now i got a new car and im using just the stock hu until i get the clarion touch screen. anyways my amps gain has to be almost all the way up now on the stock hu compared to only about 1/4 of the way before on my pioneer. does this have anything to do with using the line converter?

might be lower voltage incl. consequently weaker signals due to no preamp setup, hence less gain

...but just a guess

The pioneer head unit probably had a higher voltage sub pre-out, a line converter works off the rear speakers, an amp can only work with what its given. (YES, YOUR INITIAL ASSUMPTION IS MOST LIKELY CORRECT)
