Yes I agree that it does depend on HU output voltage but I think the Mod was speaking of a "line driver loc". Anyways, I appreciate the input. I am using 1 of the LOCs (probably the Best Buy one) - I haven't checked yet. Would I be better off with a higher quality LOC for the front stage? Boston...

Well I am using one from Best Buy (orange and black one) and one from the world famous Radio Shack...would switching to a David Navone 4 channel (or (2) 2 channels ones of his improve things noticeably? I understand that it "should" be connected to both left and right channels as there is...

I had a mono Alpine sub amp installed with a LOC by tapping into a rear speaker - ...question is that the installer only tapped off of the right side speaker...so when I shift balance to the left there is no bass at all.....should the LOC be hooked up to both right and left rear speaker lines...

I have searched and read at length anything to do with installing speaker baffles (NOT SPACERS) behind my Boston Acoustics Pro Series 6.5 stock location in the door panel mids.....what would be the perceivedd advandtages and or disadv. from doing so? Would the baffle tend to act as small...

actually you could use the fader if the rear speakers are running directly from the HU.....if no rear speakers then who cares about the fader.....or for the a sub amp, tap into the rear signal in the trunk, and use a LOC to run to a different sub amp, then the fader will control the sub and HU...

hmm..okay...the PG tantrum looks good with a decent price.....one other option I see though would be to go with a refurbed Xtant 403A for $200 on Soundomain.....I have used the mother Xtant when they firts came out in Tweeter back in like 96....that thing was ridiculous but I believe it was more...

Just did this last night actually...with a 4 ch amp.....just use 1 high quality set of RCAs and then use similar brand y connectors....run the 2 left channels into one side of amp and the 2 right channels into the other side of amp....so it would be left, left bridged and right right...

Thanks...now what would be a better choice to run those Bostons? I enjoy clean sound.....also, I assume I can run roughly 75-100 watts rms to them as they can take (per specs) 85 continous.... how are Alpine MRV series for use on mid and highs? clean? thanks for the responses....

Hello all, Recently installed a system in a G35 Coupe....I utilized the stock HU, as I enjoy a 6 disc in dash changer. Besides that here is what I used: Front ; Boston Acoustics 6.5 Pro Series Rear: Eclipse Point Source 6x9 Sub: Single 10" Alpine Type R (dual 4ohm coils) Sub Amp: Alpine...
