Thanks for tuning in guys! You can purchase the AudioControl LC-6.1200 below! shop.howl.me/caraudiofab/collections/2608 Disclaimer: Affiliate links, if you purchase from the links above we receive a commission.
AudioControl is perfect. I had a vehicle that has a difficult Audio system both from hardware and fitment. So expanding the system with new speakers and a sub was not possible. I installed the LC2i post factory amp to the factory amp and restored the bass and sound. So happy. I plan on upgrading to something like this in the future. Btw the GTO setting is AWESOME
I want to thank you for these videos. I had watched this video about 3 years ago and bought this amp and the 1500 for a sub. I sold that car but kept my gear and only want to put a small sub in my new car but it has a factory amp just like your test bench and now I know I can bridge 2 channels to get the 400 watts I need for the sub and I can use the wires off the amp in the trunk and then feed the rear speakers the other 2 channels awesome. Thank you again Godspeed
Amazing. I just turned my old 1998 Radio Shack crossover into a resistor warehouse and I recalled how much that thing helped me tune my sound. I'll probably look at this when I go for my next car.
I am running this amp I love it, theres a lot of control over your speakers. Im using this for : Channels 1/2: Audiofrog GB10 tweeters Channels 3/4: Audiofrog GB60's midranges Channels 5/6: Polk Audio DB522 (just back door filler speakers honestly) Also running a JL 12w6v3d4 sub on a JL XD600 1v2 in the trunk on a box designed by CarAudioFabrication specifically for the sub. One of the cleanest heavy hitting audio systems I have ever heard and still need to get it RTA tuned to be perfect.
@@T_B_C_L it is only six channels he could have the rear door filler speakers wired to the midrange speakers or the sub is wired to a different amplifier
I've always been JL Audio everything. When I contacted JL about what I was trying to do and they recommended Audio Control I knew Audio Control had to be the real deal. I really look forward to using their products.
A bro i watch i loved ❤ it you explained the way tha controls and functions on a amp better than anyone I've heard tell it . And I've heard a lott of people who thought they knew what they were talking about. They did not. Keep tha videos coming. You do a great job explaining things .
I prefer your reviews of products more so than most others. You actually mention more than what is advertised on the packaging. Have you thought about doing something like a weekly/bi-weekly style of review videos? I know I would enjoy your opinion on various products.
So, I have bought really budget 4 channel bridgable amplifier from pioneer has maximum power of 1000 watts but gives 60w @ 4ohm per channel and bridge power of 190w RMS @ 4ohm. My question is I have pioneer speakers installed that takes power of 100 rms @ 4ohms I want to ask that Is it a good idea to connect speakers in bridge mode in order to fulfill speaker requirements.
How is it in terms of sound quality? Can it be compared to something I know, like HELIX P SIX DSP MK2? Is there only 12dB/oct and 24dB/oct? And the others? What about time correction? Which connection method can be used with android multimedia? It is important that the sound is not processed from android. How to connect then? By bluetooth? No optics? With optics it's like a clean signal as far as I know. I don't understand English very well, so please forgive any inaccuracies. Thank you
Mark.. I’m currently running this amp and now adding the LC-1.800 along with it. I’m trying to use the LC-6.1200 RCA Analog Line-Level Outputs but not getting enough voltage to turn up the gain of the mono block to my desired setting. The manual says AcuuBASS is always engaged on RCA Analog Line-Level Outputs. Does this mean I have to dial in the AccuBASS to set my gain?
Hello, all of your videos only show cars with factory amps but my car does not have a factory amp. So how would i get bass signal from my lc2i by splicing into my door speakers with no factory amp for subwoofer?
well, I was thinking the same thing, however I was planning on getting a good 5 channel amp and then the LCi7 - and there is your price back to what this does. And this is alot cleaner and less wires.
Good morning! I have a question I have an integrated audio system (canton) in my car with 11 speakers plus one subwoofer a total of 12 speakers. My question is can I use the aftermarket filters that come with the speakers on de lc-6.1200?
Thanks for the Vid. May just have to go out and buy this even though I just installed my system. I love audio control because of products like this. I hate the fact that I am stuck with my OEM head unit in my 200 but their products make my system sound amazing.
With the line Out Put on the AudioControl D6.1200 DSP/Amp, can I hook up a separate AudioControl D6.1200 DSP/Amp so I can run all of my speakers actively? Is there a way to make them communicate with one another?
Awesome video! Question, when you adjusted the gain for channel 5 and six around minute 17:30, Did you have the radio volume all the way up to right before the clipping point? Thank you
So if I were to be using this on a aftermarket stereo and want a 3way speaker set up I’d run rcas from the aftermarket head unit to the Lc6. Have tweeters on ch1&2, mid drivers on ch 3&4, woofers on ch 5&6 but I’d have to sum ch 5&6 to ch 3&4 and set the band pass cross over point. Is this correct?
And for the price tag you paid, you could just get 2 amps Fosgate R1200.... better quality, same RMS, but 2 times more power (2 amps instead of just 1).
+Christian Almeida you would only understand the quality of these amps and dsp once you've actually owned/used one.. very well built by a company that stands behind all there products 101%
My 17 silverado without bose has 6 speakers. 2 are 2.75" in the dash. I'm guessing they split off the door speakers. If i keep the stock speakers, or replace the fronts with a component set running that manufacturers crossovers, can I run them off this amp and also my 1×10 sub?
@@ronkauffman9058 If you use the stock crossovers which is a terrible idea btw, then everything will still sound the same , maybe a bit louder due to the new amp. Just rip the stock stuff out and put a nice component set including the crossovers that come with them! And yes this amp can do that just fine. The only thing you would need to do is pull new speaker cables .
My question : If I have a 9 speaker setup (2016 Shaker w/o sub woofer) what are my options with keeping the center channel speaker in the dash. I get the left & right front & rear, but trying to find either a DSP that has that center channel out and then feeding it to an amp has become quite the unicorn. Any info would be great I really would like to keep that center channel along with the stock Sync3 radio. Yes I will be adding a sub woofer to the system at the same time I get this figured out. So I am looking at a full 5.1 setup.
Question! Can you potentially connect more than one channel from the factory amplifier to one channel on this amplifier? For example, my factory system has a channel for tweeters, mids and bass. If i take the tweeter and mid signal wires from the front and connect them both to 1 channel pair, will that work? My goal is to clean up the signals from all doors so i can replace the crap speakers.
I’m in the planning stage for my 2012 F-150 harley edition with Sony premium system. I understand that i can’t change the head unit. Being that there are component speakers in front and rear door speakers and i would like to add a couple 10’s for subs, would this amp do the job or will i have to add the mono block amp? Or would the ACM-1-300 work? I’m not looking for overwhelming bass. I’m 53 and I’m looking for quality full range with a good punch in the low end. Thanks
I am currently in the same phase as you were in a month ago, when you wrote this msg. You do not need this amp if you don't plan on changing out the factory amp or speakers in the doors. If you want a better signal to your door components then you can use this amp, if not, just purchase audio controls, Lc2i converter to use the signal from your bass speakers to a mono block amp.
So how do we find out if our factory NAV stereo attenuates the signal or has an internal crossover? Most don't do that as far as I know. If not, there's no need for this right? I mean I want high quality sound in my Jeep Grand Cherokee 2020 with the UConnect, but as far as I know the radio outputs a full range signal into each of the 4 channels, so all I need it a 4 channel amp with speaker level inputs and be done with it. Naturally, brand names only, I'm looking at the Fosgate Punch 400x4. Worst thing I've heard is bass roll-off so if anything, a LC7i is needed for those systems.
Want to get this amp but will it work if I have 6 speakers and 2 tweeters. 2 of the speakers are directly connected to the the tweeters would it still work
So if using this amp does that avoid having to run the stinger speed wire from the head unit to a LC7I and then over to the amp? What I’m gathering from this because I’m new to all of this is, where the factory speaker wire connects to the stock Sony amplifier I can basically tap or cut those wires going into the Sony amp, remove the stock amp and instead run those wires over to this amp???
Please help I’m so lost!! My goal is to install an aftermarket amp into my 2011 f150 with the Sony sound system and keep the stock speaker wiring. And also ad a subwoofer. I’m having trouble figuring it all out!! Thank you in advance!!!!
I have a question, and I'm having a difficult time finding a clear answer. Lets say this amp is used in a typical 4 speaker + 1 subwoofer set up. What is the output for the 4 channels (door speakers) and what would be the mono output on channels 5/6. Looking to do a well rounded system in a Volkswagen Tiguan, and this seems like a decent option apposed to some other 5 channel amps, but I'm a basshead at heart, and definitely want some great output from the substage. Hope you see this, and thank you for such a detailed and simplified explanation of this amp.
Nice! The decision is yours but keep in mind that this amp has a ton of features that nearly every other amp on the market leaves out. Truly a ton of functionality making it a great option.
Def one I've been saving for to follow the dm-608 I've been enjoying, just wish it was class AB. For the price though, that's a lot of versitality and clean power
Signal sense will always work when the speaker wires have 6volts DC. With a multimeter put one lead on a positive or negative speaker wire then ground the other lead.
Hi, I had a d4-800 installed. It is in a Honda Ridgeline, as well, Clarion component in front, 3 way in rear. After the install it literally sounds like crap!

I just ordered it. I had Audison AV F8.9 in my car with 11 speakers (all Audison Voce K6.5) , I plan to bridge Audison to 4 CH for front and Audiocontrol D6.1200 for the rear + Kicker Subwoofer, Do you think the setup alright?
CarAudioFabrication I installed LC-6.1200 in my car but output source 5/6 led stays on all time. Even when there is no input signal. I am using rca connection. Also GTO doesn't work with rca. Any solution?

Will this amp work for a 19 speaker Mark Levinson system minus the sub? It has 2 3-way components sets, one in the front and back. Also is this actually bypassing the factory amp?
Have you had any experience with the Rockford Fosgate 3sixty? I am putting together a system for the wife's car and purchased one to integrate the stock honda radio with amps and a sub.
I want to switch my amp hifonics brutus brx2000.1d 2000 watt rms brutus series nextgen class d 1-ohm stable monoblock subwoofer amp for the audio control amplifier is it worth it?
Bro yes I needed this video. I’ve been wanting to do a simple audio upgrade as I am super new into and have little knowledge in the audio scene but to change out the stereo on my 2014 Honda Accord Lx I would have to buy the metra kit on top of a $400 stereo and it would’ve been about $900ish just for a stereo which is wayyy to much
I want to use the audio control D-6 1200 and the Lc-1.800 to control and power my 2019 Nissan Murano platinum with Bose sound system and I’m adding three separate kicker 47TRTP122 12” 2-ohm 500 watts (1000 watts peak power) these r down firing subs with passive radiator. (Need to keep space in cargo) Do you believe this would be the best setup to add the ultimate bang while reducing the amount of wiring needed with setting up two different amps to power three different subs, highs mods etc... or is it over kill and I should just connect 1000 watt RMS @ 1 or 2 ohms and add a 2nd 600 watt RMS 1 or 2 ohms? Help greatly needed thanks!
What if you do not have tweeter inputs? Meaning, let's say the stock stereo only has Front LR and Rear LR speakers for inputs(no sub). Will all the output channels still be available with full functionality(Bus Sum, Mode,AccuBass etc.)? Basically, are there any drawbacks to not having tweeter inputs from the oem HU?
CarAudioFabrication Let's say the inputs that are available aren't full frequency, can the DSP still add back in the missing high frequencies? For example, if you were to take that same bench setup and disconnect the tweeter inputs, would you still get "full range signal" output?
funny thing amp's i never going to get this deck i have is a kenwood ddx6703s so i have spl in the deck right. I am planning to add 5000watt 4 channel amp 4ohm rms 4 x 250watt and then 7000watt 1ohm rms 2000 watt's this will go in a 2016 dogde carvan sub's in sto an go 2 x 18 inch any ideas what speakers to use?
Hello Mark Michael here with another dumb question, you would not believe what I do, (low voltage), But any whoo can I have a separate set of speakers for my stereo than separate power up amp to take care of my just installing speakers ? Thank You Mike
I have 4 crossovers and each would have a tweeter and a 6.5 component speaker on it. Only four channels are needed without an additional amp for the 4 tweeters and four 6.5 component speakers??
Great amp with one critical flaw: the crossovers can’t be bypassed. I’m shocked by this because no one with an active setup will want to use this amp. If it had that feature I would probably buy one.

I want to switch my amp hifonics brutus brx2000.1d 2000 watt rms brutus series nextgen class d 1-ohm stable monoblock subwoofer amp for the audio control amplifier is it worth it?
Bro yes I needed this video. I’ve been wanting to do a simple audio upgrade as I am super new into and have little knowledge in the audio scene but to change out the stereo on my 2014 Honda Accord Lx I would have to buy the metra kit on top of a $400 stereo and it would’ve been about $900ish just for a stereo which is wayyy to much
I want to use the audio control D-6 1200 and the Lc-1.800 to control and power my 2019 Nissan Murano platinum with Bose sound system and I’m adding three separate kicker 47TRTP122 12” 2-ohm 500 watts (1000 watts peak power) these r down firing subs with passive radiator. (Need to keep space in cargo) Do you believe this would be the best setup to add the ultimate bang while reducing the amount of wiring needed with setting up two different amps to power three different subs, highs mods etc... or is it over kill and I should just connect 1000 watt RMS @ 1 or 2 ohms and add a 2nd 600 watt RMS 1 or 2 ohms? Help greatly needed thanks!
my factory radio rolls off the bass as I turn up the volume. is there a cheap solution to this that does not involve replacing head unit?
What if you do not have tweeter inputs? Meaning, let's say the stock stereo only has Front LR and Rear LR speakers for inputs(no sub). Will all the output channels still be available with full functionality(Bus Sum, Mode,AccuBass etc.)? Basically, are there any drawbacks to not having tweeter inputs from the oem HU?
You don't have to have a dedicated tweeter signal, it makes things more simple for you as you don't need summing.
CarAudioFabrication Let's say the inputs that are available aren't full frequency, can the DSP still add back in the missing high frequencies? For example, if you were to take that same bench setup and disconnect the tweeter inputs, would you still get "full range signal" output?
No, that is the point of summing. Sum the speakers to get a full range signal.
CarAudioFabrication that's what I assumed, but needed confirmation. Thanks for the brilliant video and replying.
Now I'm old school but doesn't using speaker level inputs also increase THD.?
Nice review, it would be nice to know if that amp does in fact also put out its rated power.
I have a JBL GTO 1001ez, it has auto turn on, same tech?
How many speakers can you run off of one channel. .I have 12 speaker system. ...11 speaker one 8inch sub?
Does the lc6 do 2oh stable subwoofer output? Bridged?
funny thing amp's i never going to get this deck i have is a kenwood ddx6703s so i have spl in the deck right. I am planning to add 5000watt 4 channel amp 4ohm rms 4 x 250watt and then 7000watt 1ohm rms 2000 watt's this will go in a 2016 dogde carvan sub's in sto an go 2 x 18 inch any ideas what speakers to use?
Hi Mark, which brand sub and speakers would you pair this amp with in a SUV?
Hello Mark
Michael here with another dumb question, you would not believe what I do, (low voltage), But any whoo can I have a separate set of speakers for my stereo than separate power up amp to take care of my just installing speakers ?
Thank You
Mike
Thanks Mark! Nice job.
So with this amp would you need a LC2i or LC7i if you are going to use the signal from a factory head unit or does it already have that functionality?
It already has that functionality. No need for another converter.
Any know if you can use the all in one amp to power just four tweeters and four 6.5 component speakers??
If you are running active you would need 8 channels for this. If passive with crossovers you would use 4 channels and this amp could work.
I have 4 crossovers and each would have a tweeter and a 6.5 component speaker on it. Only four channels are needed without an additional amp for the 4 tweeters and four 6.5 component speakers??
Excellent this helps a lot. Thank you
does class D amplifier sounds great for drive front speakers ? usually class D amplifier are used for monoblock amplifier to drive a subwoofers
Great amp with one critical flaw: the crossovers can’t be bypassed. I’m shocked by this because no one with an active setup will want to use this amp. If it had that feature I would probably buy one.
Why would that be an issue? (New to stereos)
if i have a mono amp with 125w in 4 ohm and 250w in 2 ohm, is it better to take a 4 ohm or 2 ohm subwoofer?
Great... Now i want one!
Yeah I still don’t get it!!! What tweeter can I get that will work with this amp? If there is too much power it will blow!!!
Is there any kind of connection between the folks that make audio control products and the folks that make ARC Audio amps?
How did you get the display of that radio red? I know that's outta a 1999-2006 Gm with the Bose system.
Blake Johnston The head unit came out of his Pontiac Grand Am. I think pretty much all "sporty" Pontiacs mid 90's on up had red interior lights.
