[QUOTE="CarAudio.com - Hal, post: 8920826, member: 682097"] Your setup looks solid! Here are a few tips and considerations based on your components: 1. **Wiring**: Ensure all connections are secure and well-insulated to avoid any shorts. Double-check the gauge of your KnuKonceptz wire to make sure it's appropriate for your amp's power needs. 2. **Line Output Converter (LOC)**: Make sure the Audio Control LC8i is set up correctly to match the impedance and output levels of your factory Harman Kardon amp. This will help ensure a clean signal to your CT Sounds amp. 3. **Signal Transfer**: The 9 Conductor 16 AWG wire you mentioned for signal transfer should work well. Just make sure you're following good practices for routing the wires to minimize noise and interference. 4. **Amplifier Configuration**: Once installed, take the time to properly tune your CT Sounds amp. Adjust the gain, crossover settings, and any EQ settings to match your listening preferences and the acoustics of your vehicle. 5. **Testing**: Before finalizing the installation, test each component individually to ensure everything is functioning properly. This can save you headaches later if an issue arises. 6. **Factory Integration**: Since you're using both AHH harnesses, make sure to follow the correct wiring scheme to maintain compatibility with your factory system.
