Is there anyone here using a line out converter for there audio

You mean to add an adapter to create an line out on the stock radio? If so, not that I know anyone here have that. Most of us would add adapter to creates an line in on the stock radio so that we can send audio signal from a smart phone or mp3 player into the stock radio.

If you're looking for an adapter so you can send audio into the stock radio, I would recommend the Dice MediaBridge.

I will be installing one for my aftermarket amp. I'm pretty sure most guys running a aftermarket amp are using a LOC. Why are you asking?

 

[la_fx35]

^ You're installing the amp to drive a sub or all speakers?

Cause i wanna add a 10in sub and amp to my factory radio and i heard i need a line out converter so i could put RCA cable to the amp

Hmm, check out this post on adding a sub & amp to stock radio without using an adapter. That is how mine setup. https://www.infinitiscene.com/search/1/?q=2811-DIY-Install-New-Amp-amp-Sub

As matter of fact, I will installing a sub & amp for FX45Chicago this weekend with this method too.

If your amp will take speaker level inputs, you don't need a LOC. Otherwise, any LOC should work.

I'm actually going to try the PAC AOEM to add RCA outs for the radio (amping all 4 door speakers plus subs). I hate splicing wires, so we'll see if this is as plug and play as they say it is.

 

[la_fx35]

^ Which PAC AOEM are you planning to use? The closest would be PAC AOEM-NIS2. Don't see one listed for for our FX.

 

[shadow191]

It's the NIS2, it's not listed as working for FX's, but I read posts on the .org where people used it and it did work. If it doesn't work, I'll just suck it up and splice wires. It was cheap enough that I'm willing to try it.

^ :good: Be sure to let us know how it goes!

Im a little lost with the steps so you cut the RCA and put the whit wire and black wire to it? ??

 

[toy4x]

A Line Out Converter "converts" high level speaker outputs into a low level output to be used with RCA's. Our BOSE system has low level outputs already, there is no need for the LOC. Just create your RCA's by chopping off one side of the heads. Take the outside jacket (most likely aluminum) and this is your ground. The inside wire is your positive. Just tap into the correct wires as the thread la_fx pointed to. Then run the newly created RCA's into the amp input...done.

:good: Excellent diagram!

Ok got it hopefully i don't run into any problem thanks guys

Sup guys so i was playing around with this i found some bullshit RCA cable and i only found one wire in each RCA

 

[la_fx35]

the -/neg is the silver/mesh aluminum jacket surrounding the red & white in each wire. You can do a contiunity test with a meter. One side of the meter lead goes to the exposed silver/mesh aluminum jacket and touch the other lead of meter to outer gold sleeve of the rca jack and your meter should beep or should some ohm reading. Then test the red & white wire to center pin on the rca jack. I'm certain that the silver mesh you cut off is the -/negative wire.

 

[toy4x]

Andy's correct. If you carefully slice the plastic wire, you will see an aluminum shield surrounding the center wire. This is your negative. The wire you are talking about is the positive. It usually has a white or red jacket depending on if its the left or right head.

Usually an rca will have a center wire that is red or white connecting to the center pin of an rca. This is your positive wire. Generally surrounding the positive wire is white threaded plastic shielding. Surrounding the white plastic is a VERY thin layer of aluminum. It is the very first layer under the black plastic rca wire. It is also attached to the outside of the head of that rca. This is your negative. You take it a pinch it together to create the negative wire.

Oh and THANKS for the recognition on my Diagram. And here's more I've done : https://www.infinitiscene.com/search/1/?q=4773-BOSE-Wiring-Diagram

Ok got it thank alot guys for the pics and diagrams

As complete and as nice as you do things, I'm surprised there's no heat shrink on those soldered wires...

J/k

 

[la_fx35]

Hahaha, to me if you wrap the electrical tap nice and tight with a three or four layers, I feel it more secure than shrink wrap tube. Plus, since I didn't feel like cutting the fcatory wire, I can't see how the shrink wrap tube would have worked!
