j.klimas Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hey guys, Just got a sub box from my cousin with 2 MTX subs in it. Question, How the hell do I connect them to an amp, (going to buy soon), and to my factory stereo. (SC-813) ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEJinFBK Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Search eBay for "Volvo Amp". You find DIN to RCA adapters inbetween all the alternators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimus prime Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 or you could use a line level converter from your rear speakers to the amp in question or even buy an amp with high level connections. all you would have to do with either of those options is splice into the rear speaker lines and presto pretty sure its cheaper than a din to rca converter.and you wouldnt have to run all that wire back to your trunk it would just be a power wire to the amp and a remote wire. also certain amps actually dont need a remote wire they just use the high level input signal as the remote wire to signal the amp to turn on.

BEJinFBK Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 DIN to RCA = Preamp level outs x all 4 corners AND the remote on. It's not spendy, it's just an adapter. Doesn't "convert" anything. Just clean, preamp level sound straight from the source. ( That's why the DIN connector on the radio says "AMP". ) With a LOC, you're amplifying a signal, adding amp noise, then putting that signal in a choke hold with the LOC and dropping a kinda, sorta preamp level line to the amp. And where is your remote on lead with a LOC? Besides, ya gotta tear stuff up to run power anyway... I vote DIN/RCA adapter cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
