Line Output Converter Question

[jmcs23 10+ year member]

Hello,

I'm in the process of installing a Line Output Converter in my car since I decided to use the stock HU instead of an aftermarket one. I'll be using the LOC for my subwoofers only. I'm tapping into the rear speaker wires to connect the LOC instead of doing it behind the HU.

So, here's my question... Do I need to hook the LOC up to both rear speaker wires, or can I just hook it up to one of the speaker wires? For example, can I only tap into the positive & negative wires for the left rear speaker and hook it up to the LOC but not the right speaker???

Thanks in advance!

i'd run both sides so your getting both signals sides, woulda been better with the after market headunit imo

You'll get a signal if you do it that way but it won't be very strong and you won't get all of the signal from a lot of sources.

It's best to do it properly.

Get a good LOC...not those crappy $20 ones.

wire it to both of the rear speakers. then ground the LOC. it should have an extra black wire
