About: CT Sounds CT-LC2 2-Channel Premium Line-Out Converter with BassLift
The CT-LC2 is a convenient way to upgrade your car audio system without replacing your factory head unit. Many vehicles' factory radios reduce the bass output at high volumes to protect the stock speakers - you may have noticed at a certain volume level, your speakers don't produce more "bass" as you continue to turn up the volume. The CT-LC2 allows you to maintain your factory radio controls and restores bass frequencies with its "BassLift" technology.
The CT-LC2 features a full-range main output and a low-pass (1000 Hz) bass output. Use the CT-LC2 to quickly add a subwoofer to your factory system or a compact front stage plus subwoofer setup. CT Sounds "BassLift" technology can compensate for factory bass roll-off or as an enriching boost to the low-end.
Many vehicles' factory radios have navigation and climate controls built-in; therefore, you can no longer easily replace your vehicle's factory radio with an aftermarket radio to use as the source for your amplifier(s). This premium LOC (Line Out Converter) converts the high-level signal used to play factory speakers into a low-level RCA input to send to the amplifier(s), allowing you to use the stock radio as the signal source for your aftermarket amplifier(s). Alternatively, this device can "upgrade your radio" while still utilizing your factory amplifier.
Included with the CT-LC2 is a 34-page product manual that walks you through step by step how to install the device. If you have any questions or concerns during the installation process, please reach out to our tech-support team by emailing hello@ctsounds.
Features:
BassLift: Located on the top of the unit. It adjusts the amount of bass to restore/compensate for factory bass roll-off. The higher it is set the more it will amplify the lower frequencies. When "BassLift" is turned all the way down there will be no amplification of the lower frequencies.
BassLift Calibration: Located on the side of the unit. This sets the volume at which the BassLift will activate. The higher it is set, the lower the volume it will activate. When "BassLift Calibration" is turned all the way down, no BassLift will activate; this is desirable if your head unit does not roll-off bass.
SSA (Signal Sense Activation): "SSA" power on the unit when a signal is detected from the speaker inputs. This eliminates the need for connecting a remote wire to the "REM IN" to power on the device.
REM OUT (Remote Out): The "REM OUT" of the CT-LC2 provides the ability to power on any device that requires remote input. This leverages the SSA technology, eliminating the need to wire a remote wire from the head unit.
