QuestionDoes the remote wire on the converter connect to the remote wire on the amp?
Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You don’t have to unless the loc is powered. With this, you just need left and right speaker to tie into. You can ground it if you want, but you do not need too.

QuestionI have never used one of these before and after hooking it up today everything works fine but only the bass level does not change with the volume on the headunit like it would normally.... I have to change it by hand on the amplifier....
Asked 7 years ago by Scooter.
- Answer Need to know more about your setup to help diagnose the issue. What vehicle? What head unit? What amp and sub setup? Wiring setup? And any other details or symptoms you can think of. High off you have the the LOC wired incorrectly to a set of high output only wires is my guess.
