Placement & Mounting of the LC6i

Your LC6i can be physically installed in numerous locations like

behind your dashboard, under a seat, or even in the trunk. Since you

will be connecting to the speaker wires from the factory source unit or its

ampliﬁer(s), you should select a location that is convenient for wiring.

Once you have selected a permanent mounting location, position the unit

and mark the appropriate mounting holes with a felt-tip pin or scratch

awl. Before doing anything else, make sure you are not about to drill

a hole in a gas tank or pierce any existing wiring. Nothing ruins your

day more than an expensive repair bill. Drill a few small pilot holes and

secure the chassis of the LC6i with self-tapping screws.

LC6i Power Wiring

WARNING: Failure to disconnect the negative terminal of your battery

prior to the installation of your LC6i can result in a warm tingly feeling.

(+12V) Positive Connection: Insert a 12 to18 gauge wire into the con-

nector labeled "+12" on the nifty connector of your LC6i. Connect it to a

good constant source of 12 volts (we suggest the battery), fused at 1 amp.

Ground Connection: Use the same gauge wire as you did for the

positive connector and run it from the "Ground" connector on your LC6i

to the negative terminal of the battery, a ground bus, or a veriﬁed ground

location. The factory head unit ground is not a good ground!

Remote In: Connect a 22 to 18 gauge wire from the source unit's

remote turn-on or other trigger to the Remote connector on the LC6i. As

we previously mentioned, your LC6i is equipped with GTO signal sens-

ing which allows it turn on when it detects a signal at the Main speaker-

level inputs so you may not need to use the "Remote In" feature.

Remote Out: If you are going to use the LC6i to turn on any external

signal processors or ampliﬁers, connect an 18 to 22 gauge wire from the

Remote Out on the LC6i to the remote turn-on of the processors or am-

pliﬁers. Depending upon how many you are turning on, you may need to

connect this wire to a relay and route 12 volts from another source.

Once the electrical connections are complete, you will want to re-

connect the negative terminal to your battery, however continue to act

positively.

LC6i Audio Wiring

The LC6i needs to be installed in the signal path after your factory

source unit or ampliﬁer but deﬁnitely before your aftermarket ampliﬁers

and/or any signal processors. You may already have guessed there are

numerous ways to conﬁgure the LC6i in your audio system so we recom-

mend you spend a little quality time planning out your system and even

sketching it out on paper.
