Getting The Cleanest Signal Through LOC

LOC Install For Cleanest Signal Possible Question

Ok. I've spent many hours in my trunk wiring etc., trying to find the cleanest and strongest signal I can get. I have a 05 Maxima with a Bose unit.

The system has two stock "subs" on the rear deck. One has its own amplifier.

The Bose Amp has dedicated Sub out wiring, with one line going to the POWERED stock sub, and a piggyback line going to the unpowered stock sub.

I tapped right into the sub out lines BEFORE it went into the stock Sub Amp. Right now I'm reading only .84 volts at my RCA.s coming out of the LOC, and I'd really love to get that a little higher. I know a better LOC will do wonders, but for now...

I haven't yet tried to simply tap into the rear door speakers with the LOC, and that's my main question. Taking the RH and LH rear full range door speaker signal, means I would grab the signal BEFORE it enters the Bose Amp. I can also tap into those wires AFTER they leave the Bose Amp, but then that would be an amplified signal.

So, will grabbing the RH/LH rear speaker signal instead of the dedicated sub out on the Bose amp make my signal stronger or weaker?

I'm sorry if I'm a little jumbled here in my question. I've done countless installs but never one integrated into a Bose unit.

I'm prolly just going to try it tomorrow. I'd hate to splice another wire, but it may need to be tested as I can't find ,y answer anywhere,! Thanks in advance!

The LOC is a two channel Scoshe.
