## Overview

The AudioControl LC1i is a high-performance 2-channel active line output converter designed to upgrade factory car audio systems by converting speaker-level signals up to 400W into clean pre-amp outputs. Featuring selectable load impedance for seamless integration with modern OEM amplifiers, noise elimination switches, and optional remote bass control, it ensures distortion-free sound and flexible installation in a compact chassis.

## Description

The LC1i joins ranks with AudioControl’s most popular active line output converter, the LC2i. Adding a sub? Planning a full system? Either way, get the best possible signal from your factory sound system to your amplifiers. Load selection switches mean OEM integration has never been easier and the LC1 will work with the most finicky factory sound systems. Installer friendly turn on trigger modes allow for flexibility via GTO Signal Sense (DC offset), audio sense, or remote 12 volt inputs. For future head unit upgrades, the LC1i is also a line driver and can remain in the system to provide optimal preamp signal.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work on a 2019 Toyota Camry**
A: This LOC will work on any 12v speaker level in system.  The only systems to do more research on are amplified systems from the factory.  EG Bose.  In most of those applications you need to get your source wires after the amp (output).

**Q: Does the gain knob adjust output voltage? I need to boost line voltage to 3v and can't find a line driver with output that low.**
A: The level adjustment on the top side of the LC1i adjusts the RCA output level/voltage. If you are looking for a similar unit with an included remote level adjustment knob, consider the LC2i Pro.

**Q: I have a denon pma1600ne with no pre-out and i have an active subwoofer. could i use this device to redirect speaker b signal to line in on sub?**
A: This is for car audio. It wouldnt work for home audio.
