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.

Those speaker-level inputs can handle up to 40 volts, the equivalent of 400 watts, so you can use one in a premium system with a factory amplifier, enabling you to retain all your vehicle\'s factory audio options and warnings. The LC1i\'s level control with a Maximized LED indicator help you to keep the signal strong, as well as under control and distortion-free.
