Also. I noticed when the music volume is about at 1/4 the amp kicks off, i think this has to do to with signal sensing, how do i fix this?

not sure, but your remote from the loc may need to be switched over to a relay that will inturn get the 12v signal from the battery to the amps remote.

do you have the model number for the loc.

My sub does that.

It takes 2-3 seconds for the bass to kick in after I turn on my Headunit..No big deal, well to me it isn't anyway.

im running the remote from the un-used moonroof, it doesnt annoy me that it takes about 4 secs for everythign to come on, what annoys me is that if i put it low, it turns off, i gotta put it back up at like 50% for it to turn back on.

have you tryed raising the gain on the loc to see if it stop doing that. you may be droping the voltage to much on the rcas output of the loc to the point that it shuts down when it gets below a volume level since youre now runing multiple amps off of it.

hm doesnt seem to be a gain switch on the loc

 

[PowerNaudio 10+ year member]

how about a gain knob. on the loc. lol

well yeah unfortunaly no gain control on that loc model. and it needs at least 10watts to actualy start converting the signal im sure it works with less. but here is what i think is happenening.

since it uses the hu speaker voltage and current to convert the signal into a voltage signal on the rcas. for your amps. if it usualy gives out lets say at 1/4volume. a 3v signal to a single amp. then adding amps. to that same rca line. will add a load to loc that so each amp wont get 3volts any more. and as you lower your volume the less signal your amps will see, till there is no signal at the amps input. so you can ither get a better loc that has gain adjustments and all the other goodies. or change the sensitiviti setting of the amp via the swithch it to read a lower input signal. and adjust the gains on the amp acordingly.

hope it helps.

thanks man, Ill try the free method first, if not ill just get another loc with gains on it.

I had the same problem with my LOC and never got it fixed even tho they had gains on the LOC itself. Props on the install btw I've seen u on 7thgen also. I've got the 4dr lx. Just waiting on the money for a new alt our cars dim like crazy.

 

[Nexson 10+ year member]

well, not with the 500/1 special crossover takes are of all that

Did you make sure signal sensing is turned off??? Other than that I would say just find another wire that shows 12v when the radio is turned on.

 

[Nexson 10+ year member]

well heres the thing man, signal sensing is turned on, but when i turn it off, the amps dont play, like there is nothing. I think the problems lies within the signal sensing

ok all done with the amps plexi and bezels!!, now what color to shine through the inside where the amps are located?
