AudioControl LC7i Black 6-Channel Line Output Converter with Bass Restoration

Great product! Just wish Audio Control had a better video about level matching.

Worked like a charm. The only thing is that it needs a signal on all three inputs for it to work. Also if you dont us a remote to power it on your after market sound system will give a load pop.

As described!

I wasted time and money trying to get my system installed today. My package arrived with a piece missing. Theres no port for the ground, remote and power cables

Excellent piece

Easy install and highly recommended if your looking to keep your factory head unit.

So i have a love hate relationship with this unit. It does provide phenomenal sound quality. Is it a pain to tune? yeah kinda. But it is worth it as the sound quality is the best. However here is when it goes down hill. The build quality of these things in the words from Josh at Audio Control is hit and miss. So apparently even the manufacture admits that these things fail a lot. Mine failed after a few hours. They wouldnt even admit where the thing is manufactured. I asked them if its made in China. I get a response by Josh at Audio Control They are designed in the USA. I tell him I didnt ask where they are designed as most great ideas are designed in the USA. I asked him are these manufactured in China. Josh at Audio Control says I cant confirm or deny. So basically yes, they are made in China and the manufacture doesnt want to admit it. Hence why these things fail so fast. Also dont fall for the 5 year warranty scam Audio Control advertises. Unless you purchase and have it installed by an authorized Audio Control dealer and have a receipt to prove it you will only get a 1 year warranty. Its sad because this thing has so much potential if it just wasnt built like garbage. If they were built better would I recommend it? Yes! But not in its current state of manufacturing I wont.

Bought this to replace one that I had installed a few months. On the original I had an issue where sound would cut out if I had both channels of one output plugged into amp. I wrote to customer service to see if that was a defect or possibly an issue I caused, so I could decide to repair or trash it, but I ordered another to get my system back ASAP. I never got a response from audio control, and it seems like my new one is acting up now, although I have not diag’d To verify if it is the same issue. I’ll do that over the weekend and update my review if I find the LC to be at fault. If it is, I will be changing brands, as I feel I should get years of trouble free use out of this. If it’s not, I’ll still likely explore other options when I need another converter, based solely on the lack of communication. I don’t need an immediate answer to an email enquiry, but an answer within a week is reasonable to expect I think. That said, when it works, it work great. The features are nice, and it’s easy to dial the settings in properly. But I would expect high quality hardware for the premium price I’m paying for this, and so far I’m not certain that’s what you get with audio control. My 2 star overall review is based on the fact that it failed in under a year and there is no communication if there is an issue.

sound quality excellent only if they had this back in the days must get price well worth it, great for factory radio if your not looking to switch to an aftermarket one

So I did some research on this product and this is what I found out about the static and damaging to your amp issues that some people are having on the bad reviews.....READ THE INFO............... If you’ve checked all your connections, the AudioControl line converter has the power light on, you’ve confirmed that audio is playing out of your factory head unit and the amps are on, BUT you STILL don’t have audio, there is a good chance your factory system is not outputting any audio due to the fact that our Line Converters do not put a load on the speaker outputs. Meaning, since there is no resistance on on the high level speaker lines, the amp doesn’t think that there is a speaker connected to it, so it won’t output a signal. This is a perfect opportunity to plug our brand new AC-LGD! It will stabilize your factory system by putting the optimal load on the factory outputs so your system can sound the best it can!
