James88215 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I have two Rockford Fosgate T5001BD amps and two subs. I have one amp on each sub. I want to us the remote bass boost knob, but would like one knob to control both amps boost. Is this possible? Can I just use a phone jack splitter and split the wire coming from bass knob into both amps? I cant strap these because they don't have the master/slave feature. Is there some other way to do this? I know Steve's got 8 amps and somehow has them all wired to one knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCP Audio Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 you could get a LC1 and some y splitters? Quote PSN: Rcp_soundz Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps. The higher the more amperage it pulls, this is what I look at. I'll stick a 300 amp fuse in a potato and sell it to you for $2k. 1991 Mazda 323VERY small build thread here: http://www.stevemead...23-small-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James88215 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 you could get a LC1 and some y splitters? The remote bass runs off of a RJ-45 cord though on a T-5001BD amp. So that's why I was wondering if a splitter would work. Just split the signal into two, and one for each amp. I just don't wanna damage anything, seems to me like that should work, but I just wondered if anyone has any other ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdorre Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 The remote bass knob that comes with the amp is a bass boost knob. The LC-1 is a remote gain knob. The included knob may introduce distortion, or even clipping. The knob has what, between a 0-18dB boost at 45hz? I wouldn't personally use that.

87chevyboi Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 a lc1 goes inbetween the rca's homie, it doesnt matter that you have a telephone jack with a knob. And the y splitters are for the rcas too, i have never done the method your talking about but in theory it could possibly work. but you never know if the cord they run on is the same wires ran in the y splitter. So i think it would work as long as the wires in the y splitter are the same as the ones in the knob. so just buy a 2 female in and 1 male out and put it on the back of the knob and plug in the others.
