i read somewhere that the high level input method is the quickest and easiest way of using amps on a standard headunit, but also produces a lower sound quality as opposed to using a LOC.

can anyone confirm? it makes things 1000000X easier if i can just use the high level input method.

buy a new alpine vpower amp, use the hi level input for ur speakers, hi level input conversers just change speaker wires into rca (simplified) but u do loose some sound and power, just use a vpower amp they are the best thing for this application, good amp in general too

amps that accept high level input have a LOC built in to convert the signal....

Dont use a LOC if your Amp takes High Level inputs, simply insert the speaker wires directly into the Amp. You dont need an adapter, unless the amp has High Level RCA input connectors - which I haven't seen before. RCA's are usually used for low level inputs from the Head Unit.
