Audio Control LCQ-1
Any audio Guru's out there? I'm thinking of buying the Audio Control LCQ-1 to clean up my sound and give me some tuning capabilities. Am I going in the right direction with this unit? I have the BA system with aftermarket amps and speakers with subs. I'm using ********s FARK harness, if I install this unit would I then have to directly wire to the speakers? Any help is appreciated

Before I got the scosche unit and aftermarket head unit I had one in my Camaro. Its a must have for anyone sticking with a stock Head Unit but changing the rest of the system out. It really cleans up the audio signal. My music sounded much better once I installed it. They retail for about $150.00 and I'm selling mine on in the Market place for $80 shipped. It was only used for a few months and is still like new.I just placed it there a few days ago in the audio section.

After all the reading I've done on line-out converters, I don't think you're going to find a better product for that price range. I was looking at the LCQ-1 and LC7i (both feature the AccuBass technology) long and hard and every review I could find was glowing. If you want to spend more, there's the JBL MS-8 ... but you're talking a 3-5x increase in price.
If I would have seen the LCQ-1 on the marketplace for $80 shipped I think I'd have gone that direction. For that price, it's a no brainer. |

Well now that I have installed it I have picked up alternator whine. If I turn the gain way down it goes away but I lose the volume that I want. Love the accubase feature, dunno what I did without it. Anyone have any advice on getting rid of the whine would be great. Already checked the grounding. It's wierd, it wasn't there before installing???

I have seen alot of people had same issue thru searching google but never seen a solution to the problem. Im guessing that maybe there is a certain procedure to setting the gains between the ones on the lcq-1 and the amps maybe. My advice would be to calltech service at audio control as they very possibly could know the answer.
