What my setup is going to be is 6 speakers and a subwoofer running off a 5 channel hifonics amp. I dont really know what LOC to purchase. I have a 2013 Ford Focus Hatchback SE. The AudioControl LOCs have caught my eye but im not really sure which one to purchase that would complement my system the best. Should i go with the LC6i,7 or the 8?

Thank you!

Edit: i have a pair of components and a pair of tweets and a pair coaxials. the components and tweeters will all be wired together to get a 2 ohm load yada yada you guys know how that goes. so wouldnt that just make 4 channels right there? and then i would just have the extra channel for the sub correct? so wouldnt the 6 or 7 be the right choice instead of the 8? and i have 2 crossovers for the tweeters. http://www.sonicelec...r-40CSS654.html these are the ones i have

each audio control unit that you listed is primarily meant for summing or one to one converting. so if you have only 6 speakers in the car playing full range and you want 6 channels of full range converted to low level than the LC6i would be what to get. if you using it for summing than you need to take into account the number of channels being summed compared to the number of channels of full range you need. so if you have a car that has actively crossed tweeter and mids for both the front and rear as well as a sub than you'll need to get LC7 or LC8i but take into account that you'll have just 1 set of low level full range outputs so you'll need some sort of processor to gain the other channels via a crossover or eq or a channel input selectable amp. you question is way to vague.

if nothing changes, nothing changes

the 7 is the same as the 6, the only difference is that the 7 has the Accubass feature:

  • recover the bass that goes missing at high volume levels in factory systems
  • extract maximum performance of new amplifiers and speakers
  • increase customer satisfaction
  • make good sound great!
I would get the 7...
