particularly handy when using the
LC8i
with a factory system that has
multiple, actively crossed over signals being sent from an
OEM
source
unit or amplifier(s).
For
example, in some vehicles there
is
an actively
crossed over tweeter, midrange, and woofer all in the front
of
the ve-
hicle. The
LC8i
lets you take all
of
those signals and sum them together
to get a high quality, full range, pre-amp signal without the use
of
any
additional cables or hardware.
AutoMode
Inputs
Sometimes in life (and car audio) we need more outputs than inputs.
Therefore we have equipped your
LC8i
with an AutoMode input that
takes the channel 3 (rear) input signal and automatically feeds it to the
channel 4 outputs to drive a subwoofer amp and crossover, when there
is no signal present on the channel 4 inputs. This means your LC8i will
accept two input channels and give you four output channels. Or
it
can
accept four input channels and give you six output channels
...
or it can
accept six and give you eight!!
It
stops at eight by the way. Option-
ally, you can bypass the AutoMode, with an internal jumper, for certain
custom installations.
Level
Matching
Controls
Your LC8i has level controls for each pair
of
channels. These controls
allow you to adjust the signal level from your factory-installed amplifier
or source unit to match up with your after-market amplifier or processor.
The Auxiliary input also has a level-matching control to balance it with
the main inputs.
Remote
Level/Source
Control
A very unique dash mount control
is
provided with the LC8i. This is
a multi-function control, and serves to let the user choose between the
Main input (factory head unit) and the Auxiliary input (iPod, satellite
radio, or other source). The remote also serves to control the Channel
4 (subwoofer) output level. When you are using the Auxiliary input the
remote will independently control either the Aux Volume or the Channel
4 (subwoofer) output level.
