New member Username: PprashPost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-06 | I have corolla 2003 with stock deck guys, i want to hook my subs to it! I have 2 options either get a deck or use that LOC swtich.. obvy LOc switch will be a Cheaper choice for me. My question is that does it worth getting LOC and hookin gup system or Just get a deck. i am kinda broke thats why i am thiking of going with LOC. ALso what difference will there be Running SUbs from stock deck with switch of aftermarket deck. Thank you! |
Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 246 Registered: Feb-06 | is the LOC you talking about the same as a line out converter that converts the wires from your "deck" to rca to plug into the amp? also does your amp have a high input? |
Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 247 Registered: Feb-06 | sorry, stupid question. but does your amp have a high input? |

HU's do not have enough power to run subs, stock or aftermarket. Your subs will recieve a clipped signal before you can get the volume you want. |

New member Username: PprashPost Number: 2 Registered: Mar-06 | Thnx for ur replies guys... Yes i HAVE an amp and i am know Hu dont have enough power to run subs..i have "alpine mrd-m300 mono amp" SORRY BUT MAY BE I SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED THIS EARLIER !!! I have an amp and my concern is that should i keep stock deck or buy after market. IN BOTH CASES i will power the subs with my Amp. The after market deck will have RCA's and since stock doest have any RCA's i will have to buy LOC(line out converter), so i either get a new deck, OR get LOC to get RCA's and yeah I WILL POWER SUBS WITH AMP! So Quality of aftermarket will be better? IF so HOW much difference. becuase its a decent car and the stock deck is loud, wen i crank it up its loud, at a very high level i sure heard speakers distorting... SO i was thinkign LOC would be a cheaper way for me.. Please suggest me something guys ! Thnx a lot |

Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 255 Registered: Feb-06 | if your amp has a high input you don't need a LOC because you can run signal wires off the wires going to you rear speakers. |
New member Username: PprashPost Number: 4 Registered: Mar-06 | how do i find out if i have high input bro? |
New member Username: PprashPost Number: 5 Registered: Mar-06 | how do i find if my amp has high input bro? its mrd-m300 alpine mono v12 |
Silver Member Username: Sw9152Michigan Post Number: 257 Registered: Feb-06 | yes your amp has speaker level inputs, cant find a close up picture of your amp but you prolly have to have the special adapter. do you have a thing that came with your amp that plugs into it with 4 or 5 wires coming out? |

Bronze Member Username: PprashPost Number: 11 Registered: Mar-06 | well w.e u brought thomas is LOC line output converter... Quality of aftermarket will be better? IF so HOW much difference. becuase its a decent car and the stock deck is loud, wen i crank it up its loud, at a very high level i sure heard speakers distorting... SO i was thinkign LOC would be a cheaper way for me..I dont know whether i should just buy loc to run rca's to amp of buy whole new deck. + "SW9152" said i have speaker lefel input which mean i woudnt need that? this is even better becuase i wouldnt have to open the the dash to install cuz i can just run that from rear speakres Please suggest me something guys ! Thnx a lot |
