Nothing else on the market was even close to this price. Works perfectly and even has lights to tell you when the input audio is clipping which is perfect for stock headunits where at max volume it will clip. Really easy to setup but I did buy molex connector terminals to put on the end of the wires before inserting helps with fraying and stability when installing them so it won’t break in the future Review: It is Great for the Money - This LOC will take 4 channels off of a factory system and convert the signal to usable output voltage for those 4 channels while adding a subwoofer channel. There is nothing else out there that I could find that would do this for the money. I am sure that there are units out there that would sound slightly cleaner, but not by a considerable margin. We are talking diminishing returns here. The main issue is working around your factory system's built in EQ/ Bass management system. Unless you are spending 3X as much you will not get that, and even then, that is just for the bass management. To be able to cancel out the EQ completely/ tune to your desired levels you'll need a DSP. So, name your price there. I bought an $18 LOC from DS18 and it was trash. I am not saying everything from DS18 is trash, I am just saying you get what you pay for. You can get bare wires in there, but I would not use anything over 18 gauge, and be sure that both the wires and the unit are mounted securely and not bouncing around with the car. They will probably fall out eventually. I am satisfied with this purchase. ## Features - DIAL DOWN YOUR STEREO VOLTAGE: Send a clean signal from your infotainment system or factory or replacement stereo head unit to your car audio amplifier. - WORKS WITH NEW INTEGRATED CONTROL SURFACES: No matter how fancy your new vehicle's integrated touch screen controls are, you can convert the speaker level signal to an amp-friendly car audio RCA signal. - SWITCHABLE BETWEEN 2 CHANNEL AND 5 CHANNEL: Control front and rear door speakers separately as well as a subwoofer stage with its own channel. - LED CLIPPING INDICATORS PER CHANNEL: Each channel has its own LED clipping indicator.

If I remember right impedance is around 200 ohms power channel. It is a very well made LOC and I recommend. Much better than Scorche and others I have installed. **Q: What is the voltage output?** A: Specification Value Working Voltage +12 V Max Input Voltage 18.7 V Max Output Voltage 9.0 V Frequency Response 10 Hz - 30 kHz Input Impedance 20 kOhm Idle Current Draw 200 mA Dimensions (mm) 109 Γ— 87.6 Γ— 25.7 **Q: Will this work for my 40watt rms mids n highs? And my 1500watt amp and sub?** A: Yes it will work **Q: Is this also a line booster because my head unit only puts out balanced output is 1 V?** A: Not sure, but I know there is gain controls. I run a stock head unit in a honda and didn't want to upgrade and mess with cameras etc. That's why I went with this unit. Money well spent also. I think it will fit your needs well. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Insane value *by P***T on February 22, 2025* For 60 dollars absolute steal. Nothing else on the market was even close to this price.

You need to buy some male Molex pins for the bare wiring are going to be inserting into the LOC and tightening down, or some wiring ferrules. The reason for this is twofold. First, you are not relying on the screws tightening down on bare wires, and you get a more secure connection. Second, the part of the Molex pins adds rigidity to the wiring and will not bend right where the wires go in. Super easy for these small gauge wires to break off from bending. The Molex connectors will allow you to install the side with the pins to go into the LOC, and then when you get it in place you just connect them. It's very difficult to be doing this with bare wires in some tight place. 2. You need to figure out if you have a 12v+ accessory-on power wire, which will go into the 'Remote In' location on the LOC. If you don't have this switched power wire, you will get no sound, you must have one. If you don't, you need to tap into one going into the head unit. ## Frequently Bought Together - SoundQubed Active 5-Channel Car Audio Line Out Convertor - High to Low Head Unit Signal Convertor - RECOIL RCI23 100% Oxygen Free Copper 3ft 2-Channel RCA Audio Cable, Twisted Pair with Noise Reduction - RECOIL RCI66 99.99% Oxygen Free Copper 6ft 6-Channel RCA Audio Cable, Twisted Pair with Noise Reduction --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/420523052-soundqubed-active-5-channel-car-audio-line-out-convertor-high](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/420523052-soundqubed-active-5-channel-car-audio-line-out-convertor-high) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-11-11*
