Loc or rca

[Deadhead0103]

I have a 2009 Ford Flex and I can’t change the head unit. I currently use a loc and it works fine but it doesn’t seem to be working as loud as I know it should be. I have a speaker wire to rca adapter and can hook it up easily. Will it make a difference. Both of my amps will work with low level inputs

If you don't already, make sure you have a good LOC like

MFR # 46KISLOC2. RCA line outputs up to 8 volts RMS. bare speaker wire inputs. 2-channel line output converter. Stereo line-output converter (attached 4" bare-ended input wires). applies 60-ohm load to each channel to circumvent open-circuit protection.

or

Place the LC2i between your factory system and your bass amp, and you'll hear a huge difference in bass response. The LC2i features two speaker-level inputs that let you connect amplified signals up to 400 watts, including cables from Bose® and other premium factory systems.

I honestly would look at something that has a way to correct the factory bass curve

Change the speakers.

Make sure all the wires are tightly joined at the connections. I think there's factory amplifier. Premium sounds. That's why. Disconnect or bypass that factory amplifier first before you plug in the other two amplifier.

If you have the manual for your car Ford Flex, look up where the factory amplifier is located. The wires going into and out of the amplifier. You won't be using this amplifier. All the speaker wires has to be redirected to the power amplifier from the radio. By passing the factory amplifier. You'll have to do your own research. A wiring adjustment or harness is used for this purpose. If you cannot find the wiring harness, then you'll have to do it yourself. So harder. Try to find this already made harness for your ford Flex. Then you'll have to connect it yourself. Follow all instructions. They give you on bypassing the factory amplifier.
