[QUOTE="OldFartAudio, post: 8711640, member: 680592"] I have a 2018 Ford Focus and I would like to add a subwoofer and amp. I already own an xtant 3150c that works and thus would be the cheapest route to bass. A new HU would be nice but the freaking dash kits are outrageous and if I want to do iData it is like $350 on top of the HU so that is out. My Focus is the SE and has 6 speakers, not Sony. I have no idea what the HU puts out but I have heard that the rear channels have less power than the front. The 3150 can take up to 8 volts on it's inputs. I don't have any clue what kind of voltage high level lines carry and I am wondering if a line level converter is a must have. Also, if I use an LLC I am thinking it would be best to run speed wire from the HU to the rear of the car and then convert the signal so I am using a higher level signal for the long runs of wire. Any help will be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
