A question for the car audio savvy folks

RaiderZ28 · 05-12-2007, 08:40 PM

On a 2007 EX with the 8" sub, if I want to add 2 JL 10's, can I take the line for the sub and convert it to rcas but keep the sub control from the factory head unit?

Suggestions? Opinions?

Ya there is a way to do it. I don't have the wiring map in front of me to give you specifics, but I know it's possible.

Cool, thanks for reply

just cut the speaker wire before the sub and use a line level converter. Done.

I think you need a line out converter.

Is it the one that takes the speaker wire and converts to rca? If so, I have it.

I think so. Just do a search for Line out Converter on this site and see what you can come up with.
