[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8666655, member: 576029"] The primary difference is the signal you are getting. The LOC takes the output to a speaker and changes the voltage so it's appropriate for an amplifier. The issue is that you get whatever signal the speaker gets - which may have bass removed. Also, the gain structure may be difficult to get right. Most amps have high level inputs which lets you bypass an external LOC and use the one in the amp. That may help but it won't change the signal your tapping into. I use an RTA to measure the output of a factory system and determine the frequency response of the factory system, that process is shown here: [MEDIA=youtube]Kva4YA19P7M[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
