This is a very good video! Thank you for the info! This will help me with installing my future LC5. And I appreciate the use of the inta and meter. Good stuff, my man!
Man, Dean. If we could just get you to rewire the entire collective emotional and neural network of the world, we'd be set. But I know, your family needs you. Luckily your intelligence and enthusiasm is contagious 🌟
Watch your channel, reminds me when. I did installs in Chicago for the big chain in the 90's. What is available for OEM integration on a 2023 Tacoma to retain factory HU.
You want to add two of what? Two amps you could do but 2 Lc5I’s would be throwing money away. If you want to add 5 or 6 amps to you vehicle there are dsp’s out there with time alignment. Since you don’t have a factory amp you have a lot more options depending on your vehicle. The simple passive line converter like he showed in the video might work. The burnt one was probably because somebody hooked a passive line out after a factory amp. That would be kinda like wiring your car directly to a transformer on a utility pole.
It would depend on the factory system and how many channels it has. Basic radio has 4 channels, system with factory amp can have unlimited. You would us a high to low for every amplified channel used. For a system with a factory amp there may be an interface available bypass the need for this.
Grand Morning People's Prior to upgrading my door speakers I would have issues with the volume fading in and out as if I was adjusting the volume, I upgraded the speakers leave the shop and noticed that speaker on the passenger front door kept popping. I go back I'm told that I can't change the head unit because the climate control is integrated into the OEM H/U so they sold me a crossfader that supposed to fix the issue N☹️PE! Now every time I raise the volume it cuts off and the only sound comes from the OEM rear deck subs. Never went back very disappointed in the work they did and on top of all that I took out a loan that still paying on 🤦🏾♂️
@@melissathompson7229 I should've gone to the folks who showed me that set up 🤦🏾♂️ them folks at tint world are not audio qualified, and I was telling them about that piece I just didn't know the name of it. Thanks Melissa
Great! Another almost useless in newer car loc. 7 out 10 times I do not want the signal in to match the signal out with crappy factory eq curves. Time delay and all pass filters. Audio control needs to stop resting on what they did 20 years ago and make useful products again for modern applications. I don't care how good the quality of the product is. If it isn't what I need and I have to deal with does to people coming in saying I use the LC whatever it just sounds like crap. What did I do? Well you use the wrong device for your car. Stop buying audio control
You do realize that they make 2 stand alone DSP’s and 3 amps with built in DSP (shown in video).They just finished redoing their DSP software that is backwards compatible with all their DSP products.
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc yes so why do you need this then if you have to upsale a DSP to do what this does not do. Average guy don't want a DSP they just want it to work . I know 💯 you know this . I have watched 100s of your videos saying over and over , If you bought a lc2i, 7i ect. Return it it's not what you need . Is it audio controls fault that average consumers don't know how to get the right tool for the job no. But does audio control make it more difficult for the average consumer to get the right product... yes there terminology like , fixes bass rolloff . . Miss leading (inverse loudness) a cross over rolls off . These devices do not fix that. But do to the confusion to average consumers audio control sells way more than they should . Call audio control ask will this work in my 2020 ram premium audio . They say yes . And technically it kinda does . But it don't do the job right. Audio control is falling behind , amp pro , kicker key zen a to b . Real integration tools for newer cars.
@@paulgood2218i have to disagree with you. Im from south africa and i drive a vw polo 6 tsi. I still have my factory radio in. I hav bought many loc's( devices that was in my budget) and none of them does the job like the lc2i pro made by audio control that i bought. It has improve my voltage coming from my factory radio to provide both my 4channel amp and my monoblock amp driving 2 subwoofers 12" 650rms each easily and clean. Here in South Africa we dont have alot to choose from when it comes to technology, i had to buy mine in the USA and i must say im very impress with this product i wouldnt be surprise if one of these days all new car systems will have units like audio control built in to them from factory. What u dont understand is that there is always that one thing that your factory HU has that a aftermarket wont hav and remember if u buy a car, u buy that car with the factory HU.
Great product, since I had no need to open it up to switch anything around I had no clue all those woofers were on the board that was pretty cool 😎

Good morning guys. I know it takes a long time and lots of editing but man we need more install videos
Love your channel ..I'm coming to have yall hook up my system this month
The bass knob seems to control the output of the lc5i pro not just channel 3
Great video ! I’ll get confused when trying to tune

Good morning guys
Nice video, wich model do you recommend?, i wanna keep my original head unit but doesn't have any amplifier. And i wanna put two of them..

Is it possible to use this if I want to connect to a 4 channel amp for my speakers and then a mono sub woofer amp as well?
Where can I get that test tone app? Also, what is it called?
Morning guys
Dumb question...Does a Pac amp pro do the same thing basically??
Thanks Dean! How does someone know if they need whatever # of channels of high to low level conversion? Can you give examples?
It would depend on the factory system and how many channels it has. Basic radio has 4 channels, system with factory amp can have unlimited. You would us a high to low for every amplified channel used. For a system with a factory amp there may be an interface available bypass the need for this.
How does this compare to the jl audio fix 86? This unit is about $275 less than the jl audio and appears to do about the same thing.
This doesn’t compare at all to the fix 86. It would compare to something like dm-608 or dm-810.
LOL. Do all the versions have dogs in it or is it only yours. How would a normal person ever know they were there.
Will this give you the option to add a amp and subwoofer to your car factory radio
Yes but there are other options that from audio control and others that would be just as good but cheaper.
So it’s a LC7I with a knob and one less input.
I would never buy audiocontrol due to the name. It must be goid though.
