Audiocontrol LOCs all have a built in auto signal sensing ability on the high input line that switches out 12V+ to your additionally connected amps. They call this "GTO" - Great Turn On.

In other words, supposedly there is no need to hook up or run a stereo switched 12V+ trigger line. It will sense the stereo being on through the speaker wires, and create a trigger for your amp.


Is anyone using this with success?

If not, what wire did you tap for a reliable 12V+ trigger?



(No nav/ML)

I didnt - There's an accessory power cable at the factory amp so its very easy to tie into that to ensure you get a correct power on signal. I also didn't test the GTO feature though so I cant say if it works or not. I have an ISF with ML otherwise I'd tell you what cable to tap :-)

@jsmacks -

The GTO function works reliably well and we don't hear of many problems with the feature. There are increasing exceptions with newer, fully integrated AV systems in cars that will trigger GTO for system notifications, nav, etc. Some people don't like this behavior and choose to bypass the GTO function (jumper). Trigger out will work with either GTO or trigger in.

I hope this helps.
