This fixed-price listing includes the AudioControl LC1i 2-channel active line output converter and line driver designed to work with most factory systems. The AudioControl LC1i is an active, high-voltage OEM line converter. This compact, two-channel processor with active input circuitry, accepts speaker-level signals of up to 400-watts per channel from factory-installed source units or amplifiers. It then converts the speaker-level signals to high-quality pre-amp signals that can be directed to aftermarket processors and/or amplifiers. The LC1i also features an integrated line driver, for ensuring a strong pre-amp signal to your amplifier(s). A 3-way input load selector is provided for clean signal integration into even the most finicky factory sound systems. Aftermarket amplifiers and DSP sound processors need clean and strong input signals, whether they come from a receiver's RCA outputs or a factory amp's speaker outputs. AudioControl's LC1i line output converter can produce up to 9.5 volts of preamp-level output in either case, acting as a line driver using its RCA inputs or as a line output converter using the speaker-level inputs. With industry leading features such as our Load Matching Circuit, intuitive channel summing, patented AccuBASS® compensation, GTO™ Signal Sense, signal delay and EQ, AudioControl active line output converters are the go-to choice for OEM integration.

The two-channel line-output converter features removable captive-screw terminals (Euroblock/Phoenix) for quick connection.9.5V Preamp Outputs Equipped with 9.5-volt RMS (13-volt peak) preamp outputs w/ Level control.Line Driver Features a set of RCA pre-amp inputs that can provide additional signal boost if needed. This is especially helpful when connecting to an older head-unit with a lower pre-amp output voltage.Level Control & Maximized Indicator The pre-amp output level can easily adjust to its optimum level using the Level dial and Maximized LED indicator. As the Level control is turned up during playback, the Maximized LED will light to indicate the signal is close to clipping and will need to be backed down from that point. This allows you to get the loudest clean signal out to your amp without distortion.Load Select This slide-switch lets you select one of three input loads to best match the factory system, preventing it from muting the output with no load detected.20Ω: Best suited for late model Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep/RAM/Fiat vehicles with a non-amplified OEM sound system.60Ω: Best suited for late model Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep/RAM/Fiat vehicles with an amplified, or "Premium", sound system.20kΩ: Used for most other vehicle applications.Trigger Mode Three methods of activation, via a 3-way switch:GTO (Great Turn On) Signal Sense: This turn-on method can sense a DC offset when the factory radio is powered on.Audio: Activates when a sound source is played, regardless of factory radio already being powered on.Remote In: Uses the "traditional" method of activation, with a +12V input on the Remote In terminal.Ground Isolation Switch Three signal-ground options are provided for eliminating grounding noise problems:GND: Power ground and audio ground are tied together.ISO: Power ground and audio ground are separated.200Ω: Provides 200 ohms of resistance between power ground and audio ground.Power Connections Requires a hardwired power and ground connection to your vehicle's 12-volt electrical system. The line-output converter features removable captive-screw terminals for both the Power/Ground/Remote terminals and for the Speaker Inputs.Remote Output A Remote Out terminal on the power connector can provide a +12V output to activate your amplifier(s), regardless of the Trigger Mode setting.Mounting Integrated mounting flanges to mount the unit under a seat, in the trunk, or under the dash. No mounting hardware is supplied.

(0.25 kg)AudioControl Warranty Policy AudioControl products are designed, engineered, and tested at our facility located in the Pacific Northwest, USA. Given our huge commitment to quality, AudioControl comfortably warranties all materials and workmanship on our products for a period of five years from the date of purchase, provided it is installed by an authorized AudioControl dealer. Should you choose to install it yourself, your warranty is one year from the date of purchase from an authorized AudioControl dealer.A Few Words About Warranties People are scared of warranties. Lots of fine print. Months of waiting around. Well, fear no more, this warranty is designed to make you rave about us to your friends. It’s a warranty that looks out for you and helps you resist the temptation to have your friend, “…who’s good with electronics”, try to repair your AudioControl product. So go ahead, read this warranty, then take a few days to enjoy your new AudioControl processor before registering the warranty card and comments.“Conditional” doesn’t mean anything ominous. The Federal Trade Commission tells all manufacturers to use the term to indicate that certain conditions have to be met before they’ll honor the warranty. If you meet all of these conditions, we will warranty all materials and workmanship on your AudioControl product for one year from the date you bought it from an authorized AudioControl dealer (five years if it is installed by an authorized AudioControl dealer). We will fix or replace it, at our option, during that time.Here Are The Conditional Conditions1. You have to go online and register your AudioControl products. Alternatively, you may fill out the Warranty Registration card that came with your product and mail it to us.2. You must keep your sales receipt for proof of purchase showing when and from whom the unit was bought. We’re not the only ones who require this, so it’s a good habit to get into with any major purchase.3. Your AudioControl products must have originally been purchased from an authorized AudioControl dealer. You do not have to be the original owner, but you do need a copy of the original sales slip.4. You cannot let anybody who isn’t: (A) the AudioControl factory; (B) somebody authorized in writing by AudioControl to service your product. If anyone other than (A) or (B) messes with your AudioControl product, that voids your warranty.5. The warranty is also void if the serial number is altered or removed, or if your AudioControl component has been used improperly. Now that sounds like a big loophole, but here is all we mean by it. Unwarranted abuse is: (A) physical damage (don’t use it to level your RV); (B) improper connections (120 volts AC into a 12 volt DC power jack can fry the poor thing); (C) sadistic things (your imagination is best kept private).. This is the best product we know how to build, but if you mount it to the front bumper of your car or use it as a counter-weight for your daughter’s trebuchet project, something will go wrong.6. If an authorized United States AudioControl dealer installs your component, the warranty is five years.Assuming you conform to 1 through 6, and it really isn’t all that hard to do, we get the option of fixing your old unit or replacing it with a new one. To initiate a warranty claim, please contact AudioControl and we will issue an RA (Return Authorization) number and provide shipping instructions. Products received at AudioControl without an RA number will be refused.Legalese Section This is the only warranty given by AudioControl. This warranty gives you specific legal rights that vary from state to state. Pomises of how well your AudioControl component will perform are not implied by this warranty. Other than what we have covered in this warranty, we have no obligation, express or implied. Also, we will not be obligated for direct or indirect consequential damage to your system caused by hooking up your AudioControl component. Failure to properly register your AudioControl warranty may negate any service claims. Additional Notes We recommend having a professional certified technician handle the installation. For any questions or concerns about the product, please contact us through the "Contact Seller" feature for technical support or customer assistance.
