Several G35 owners choose this LOC and are very satisfied. Mr. Navone will personally answer back if you e-mail him. [smile]

if it's the "slash" series 500/1, you don't need an LOC. I didn't use an LOC for my 250/1, slash series excepts hi and lo input.

Yes...that is true....you do not need a Line to RCA converter for JL "slash" series amplifiers.

If you still want one....Audio Control came out with one...top quality!

Audio Control LC6

9 volts out
330 ohms....pretty damn good.

actually this is the amp

http://www.jlaudio.com/amps/5001.html#

Can it take the wires before the BOSE AMP and a tap from them to the amp directly without using a line converter??

I don't see it on the PDF file:
http://www.jlaudio.com/amps/pdfs/500_1.pdf

I'm installing a 10" W6 (4080 box) that amp...Power wires are JL, RCA wire is Stinger Dream series......just not sure about the converter......(I ALSO want to get the Remote Bass Control **** for the amp)

I used this LOC...http://www.soundgate.com/products/li...put/type-1.htm
My amp had high level inputs but I wanted the ease of removal that an RCA jack gives me.

I made my own one of these http://www.jlaudio.com/ECS/aicsw.html by cutting some monster cables (that had a messed up end).

JL Audio is coming out with a device called the Clean Sweep that should make a big difference. Until it arrives feed speaker-level directly into the 500/1, it can take it.

Where can i buy the AUDIOCONTROL LC6? online.....

i may just buy a stinger line to rca for now...and upgrade later.....

I noticed for the audiocontrol LC6 it says take signal AFTER The BOSE AMP? ...is this recommended for all line converters? or just that one?

Not sure why you want to buy a standard LOC when you don't need one. If you want something nice take amg35's advice and try the JL Audio Clean Sweep. Go read about it on the JL site.

No, tap them after the amp, it will sound better.
