hey guys, i´ve reading this whole thread and i´ve found a lot of good information from all of you, unfortunately it´s been pretty much in pieces haha so i would like to know if anyone can help me out with these

i plan on buying a 2008 civic ex sedan and since it will be brand new i really don´t want to mess that much with the interior so i plan on keeping my stock HU (i really like how it looks) but i want to install my current setup on the ex:

1 pair of rockford PS162S component
1 pair of memphis reference series component (don´t remember the exact name)
pair of 10" kicker comp v subs
rockford P4004 amp for the speakers
some brand i don´t remember amp for the subs

ok, so here´s the question, can i use a LOC from the factory rear speakers wires to send the signal to the speakers amp and run it through to my subs amp? will i have a good sound quality with the stock head unit?

i will obviously wire the whole thing up from the amps to the speakers/subs, but my main doubts are regarding how do i get the signal to the amps and how good will it sound, fidelity wise, with the stock HU

thanks in advance

anyone know what a high/low loc is?

A line out converter is meant to convert a high voltage or a high level signal to a low voltage or low level RCA signal.
