Nice little gadget.......works well. Required some modifications in my application.
I bought this for my son's sub amp and speaker installation. He had received an amp and a pair of 12 inch subs for Christmas. I needed this to tap into the high level speaker lines for the signal for the amp. The installation seemed straightforward enough but I encountered several problems. Once the system was wired exactly as specified by this and by the amp wiring diagram the system worked and sounded good. All seemed well. We went to bed that night and guess what......the next morning the battery was dead in the car. Out came the charger and that issue was resolved. The next day.....the same thing.A complete check of the wiring showed no stray strands, no bare wires pushed too far in grounding on the amp case, etc. There were no points where any wires were rubbed bare against metal, etc. Much research really turned up nothing so I took matters into my own hands. I disconnected both the hot wire going to the amp itself and also the so called remote turn on wire from this LOC going to the amp and guess what.....no more dead battery. I played with the car a couple of days, played the normal stereo, etc. and all worked fine as before. This made me confident that something was going on with this box, the amp or a combination of the two. Since my son is off at college 100 miles away a dead battery in the morning when leaving for school is not an option.I did some more research and bought a Stinger relay for the main 4 ga power wire. I cut my feed wire, ran it through the contacts on the relay and then wired the coil of the Stinger across a low usage relay in the relay fuse block under the hood. Then to be doubly safe I bought a little $5 four pin relay from the auto parts house and powered the coil off the feed wire for the amp and the ground. Then I ran the remote turn on through the contacts and viola......no more dead battery issues. The car has been ran for a week now with no problems, the volts are staying exactly where they should be, etc.This combination means that the amp has no power until the car key is turned and energizes the Stinger. Then the feed through the Stinger gives power to the other relay to complete the remote turn on circuit. Then if the radio system is turned on the remote turn on will let the amp energize and we have sub sounds.I really have no complete knowledge of what the issue was but just that this box did not work as it should have based on expectations. My son's car has the fancy Microsoft Sync hands free live telephone system and communication package so I have gleaned some knowledge since you can basically speak and the system will power up and allow you to make hands free phone calls or texts, that there must be a low level live signal coming to the speakers that effectively makes this LOC keep the amp on standby even though the amp power light is off. My wiring solution solves all that.With all being said and done.....the LOC works well, we have the sounds we wanted and everyone is pleased. I would recommend this LOC but would just advise you to take my mods into consideration if you encounter issues like I did.

Works well
Works well i use this along with my actual amp knob and this works basically as the master if you turn this down it turns the bass down regardless of what your other knob is set to sometimes good sometimes bad but i have no complaints

Easy to install
Worked very good with my stereo system

Bad Luck????
I bought this because I wanted to keep my factory head unit and didn't want to spend the money on a new unit. The installation was easy, nothing too complicated. HOWEVER...when I went to connect the remote, turn on, nothing happened. The amplifier I bought did not turn on, so I used a multimeter to test if it was receiving power. When I had tested it, the multimeter wasn't reading anything. For a few days, I had it connected to a constant power, which isn't what I wanted to do, but it worked. So when I had the chance, I saw that they were being sold at Walmart. When I purchased it and rewired everything up, the remote turn-on still did not work. I don't know if it was because both of them were faulty or what was going on. If you are looking to get a LOC or a Line Converter Output, I would've bought a better quality, I guess, but I do appreciate that it comes with a remote bass knob.
