Such a great video! Its well made and absolutely crystal clear. Thnx
Wonderful information brother! Thank you... Very useful!!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON
These videos are very helpful, thank you!
Nice description! Thanks guys.
Thanks again for such an amazingly informative video.
Very informative.... Well done guys!
Great info as always!
Great video thanks for the knowledge
used one in a 2016 Focus RS about a year ago. worth it's weight in gold! aftermarket HU is not possible in those cars. but got all the aftermarket expatiation possibilities.
Would be so freaking nice if they just made it standard to add RCAs to stock hesdunits
Most manufacturers don’t because some state laws don’t condone it
Great video 👍✌
I just bought the complete set for my Challenger, including the TOSLINK module.
Thanks for this. The bass roll off on the GM Bose system is brutal it just kills the low end output as volume increases. If you tap the factory amp while adding a subwoofer your wasting your time. It would be great if you guys could show that EQ in action, IE: play some pink noise on the GM Bose system and watch as the bass just disappears. Just the fact that you don’t have to cut any wires makes these OEM low level adapters worth the extra $$$
Great informative video. I have a 2017 Dodge Charger with the alpine system and I really don’t like the alpine system. I have a Jl audio xd400/4 to power my mids and highs and I’m using the amp pro kit. I need some guidance on making my high sound extra crispy. What frequency should I set my amp pro to?
When you guys are tuning a stereo how are you streaming in the music into the car. Bluetooth auxiliary or USB?
What a great explanation. I have a 2018 camaro zl1, i purchased the amp pro, Best Buy will not install it and insist that I need an audio control Lc71 instead. Sounds like the Amp pro is the way to go and actually does more than the Audio control. Guess i need to find another installer, wish you were in the maryland area, thx!!
You have any way to cross reference just the Bose plug shapes? I just need a T harness but they never list a Mazda 6 with Bose so I'm trying to figure out which vehicles could've also used my amp type from Bose so I can integrate into my OEM stuff. Thanks for your time
Is there a way to make a preamp output in a 2017 Ram 1500 with the 6 speaker system, or am I stuck with using high level input?
new intro...whoohoo
Thanks for video cool stuff metro makes one like this also when I asked them a simple question they had no idea what I was asking so I’ll ask you when you plug that amp pro in since it’s between radio and factory amp does it require you to buy a amp for every single channel in other words does it turn off the pen signals tweeters mid center I have 10 channel pen system all I want is a subwoofer out if I use this will it shut all other channels off meaning can I install this keep all my own sound on and just use the subwoofer pre out on the amp pro?
I'm just trying to install a mono amp with aftermarket subwoofers. Will I need the T harness or will the Amppro with RCA's be fine?
I have the GM61 in a 17 Camaro with the bose amp running to a AC D-6.1200. I am having so many issues with the RCA's and noise. I have gone from under the glovebox to the rear on both driver and passenger side with 4 sets for cables (from cheaper monoprice to the $200 stinger 9000 ones). Engine whine, headlights and even hitting the breaks. Is there a way to mount the amppro in the back next to the Bose amp?
How would these work with a gm bose amped system with an aftermarket head unit or would I even need one of these?
Five star car stereo, I have a 2018 Ram 2500 w/ the 10 speaker Alpine factory setup. I’m looking to upgrade the subs and the Mids eventually. My question is which do you think is better for the Ram, The amppro4 or the fosgate DSR-1? Any info would be appreciated.
Great video...I still have not seen the aftermarket amp to speaker connections. This came close with the PAC T harness but I am still confused. I installed an LC7i in my Sony F150...mistake. I now have the amp pro and need to know if I t connect at the radio, which I already did for the LC7i, or at the factory amp?
Please help,thanks guys.
What’s the T-harness for? Is it necessary for all installation? I’ll be installing a 5 channel amp, a front component set and a coax in the rear in my 2016 4Runner w/ the JBL system. Will I need a T-harness?
so if I install an amp pro and an aftermarket amp with sub/center/front and rear there is no reason for the factory amp correct?
So, I have bought really budget 4 channel bridgable amplifier from pioneer has maximum power of 1000 watts but gives 60w @ 4ohm per channel and bridge power of 190w RMS @ 4ohm. My question is I have pioneer speakers installed that takes power of 100 rms @ 4ohms I want to ask that Is it a good idea to connect speakers in bridge mode in order to fulfill speaker requirements.
Wow right on time ..this is exactly what I was looking for ...what do you recommend for a 2018 Camry?
stryker7x what you end up going with ? I just recently bought a 2019 Camry SE without JBL and I want bass !!!
Witch one should I use for a factory Acura truck 2015
My 2018 Chevy Malibu with 8 inch touchscreen without bose has a factory amp in the trunk. Will this amppro work with my car? Like I said it's the 8 inch touchscreen non Bose.
My 2018 Chevrolet impala premier has the Bose system my question is would the AmpPro be a Good product to use for my system, I don't want to lose any functionality of my vehicle
Can I hook up the amp pro to an epicenter and than run it to my amplifier ? Or is the epicenter not necessary
So I have a question.. I have a Bose system in my 2007 Chevy Suburban. I want to add 2 6k crescendo amplifiers, and a JP234. The thing is I want to retain my factory system so when my GF and Daughter use the truck they don't have to mess with the rest of my system. I'm adding 4 15" Resilient sound onyx subs, 4 titanium tweeters, and 4 8" mids. I want to run a switch to Turn off my LC7I Pro so the added equipment doesn't run. What would I need to tie my LC7I Pro into my Bose system?
Is there one for a 2014 Lincoln MKZ ?
Dam u guys are good
Hey guys, great video as always! Any idea if the Pac Audio AP4-TY13 would work in a 2020 Toyota Corolla XSE with JBL crap, I mean premium system? This premium system is giving me a headache but you guys have given me hope!
I would give them a call. They don’t always update the web page.
What if I don't have a factory amp and going with a lc7i is a cheaper option to hook up an aftermarket amp? Would you still recommend I go with PAC amppro?
If course “the company” would they are like $400
Go with lc2i or lc7i
Cars are made so fn cheap these days in all honesty you’ll have to upgrade everything to get “good sound” but then road noise just screws you’
If just adding a sub just go with a cheap loc don’t spend $200 +
I'm working on my 17 tacoma with factory jbl system. Cut into my factory harness to try to make the lc7i work but definitely was a huge mistake. Got the harness repaired. Now. If I go the pac ap4-ty12 would I still have to run the lc7i. Or is it 1 or the other?
one or the other bro. i asked the same question a few weeks ago n someone confidently told me
If Amppro makes an interface that fits my stock stereo, in my case ap4-ch41, but the car doesn't have the AMP, is it still possible to get a flat signal from the amppro without the added amp? I remember you mentioning the secret on Dip switch 3, would this apply?
No it will not work on your car yet with out the factory amp. That could change in the future.
Would I benefit from this in a 98 expedition with the mach audio stereo
Can you just not add a aftermarket head unit?? And run RCAs completely to the unit? This is for cars that you can't change the headunit on
So it has it's own brand new chime?
Great info as always. Now if only the manufacturers weren't charging $400 for an amp pro. Guess I'll keep using my trusty LC8 until I can save enough pennies for the PAC Amp Pro. Its hard to find the APH GM02 T Harness online. Any recommended websites.

@@bigdaddy3887 awesome, thank you
@@waynet5293 👍
When using amp pro 4 (TY-13) Toyota Camry with JBL. what volume should I use on head unit to set the gains on my amplifier?
I bought a DD1 to answer this question. And it doesn’t work on this car. I have used it for 3 other cars and it has worked fine.
Got a link?
Lc7i or amp pro..2015 f150 fx4 which one
Can we diy by soldering to adapt the harness with any car model ?
No amp pro is a data device specific to a certain brand car
Witch one should I use for a 2014 Acura MDX? Adding subs and class d amp?
Hi to lo to that application
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc witch product though?
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc any input on witch one? Maybe a part number?
I really appreciate this video. 👍✌. @1:25, when you compare the 9v vs the 2.43 v, is the signal the same? If u were to lower the hi level signal from 9v to 2v, would it be the same as a low level signal? Can a low level rca power a speaker?
Yes because it gets fed to an amplifier,which then sends the output to the speaker.(answer to last question)
@@craigshelhammer5683 thanks man, but i meant if it could directly power a speaker, at least theoretically. I was trying to understand if it is the same as a speaker level output. I wanted to feed a ktp445a a low level input, but i was afraid of blowing up something.
@@carlosreset7501 ah I see,sorry about that...I wouldnt do that as the sound would be low,and probably not great quality I would think..it would be getting about 1/8th the power the other speakers get(if not less)
The whole point of the Amp Pro is to not only convert the output of your high level from your radio to Low Level , but to do it without introducing noise and give a flat frequency response to the converted output. Then you can feed that signal (front , rear , sub) to the Aftermarket Amp of your choice.
@@mopard2565 i understand amp pros and hi to low level converters. I was asking a general question about hi and low level signals. The ktp 445a only has hi level input but i was trying to do something for a customer where i could use active processing to filter the channels. The original 445 had a hi and low level gain switch, but not the new version. The 445u actually uses the same input wires by cutting off the rca ends to use speaker level input, but then you have to switch to speaker level input. What does the switch actually do for the signal? The guy already said he'll buy a new amp, but it made me wonder what actually is the difference with the signal. Thanks
Can I use amp pro even if no factory amp? I'm not sure if my 2017 Tacoma has it.
Not on that car
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc thanks
Where can I purchase a T-harness for a 07 cts
I need one for an 08 Cts..
First
Good morning Dean
Do you guys answer questions? Because i have a few :(
checkout the Jl audio fix series if Pac don't support ur car
👌
Dean: I hope you can help me because PAC doesn't have an answer save for "Well, it's supposed to work"...
The AmpPRO in my '16 Charger isn't putting out a full signal. All channels are still crossed over with the factory outputs (lows to doors and mids to rear deck). PAC customer service has gone over my entire setup with me on the phone (for hours) including receiving remote access to my laptop to look at my JL Audio Twk 88 settings. Thay can not explain why I am having this issue.
Do you have any ideas? I have it set up just as you did the '16 Challenger you did--dash tweeters running off factory amp and the AmpPRO running all six outputs into my DSP.
Thanks in advance!
any 2019 Corvette amp Hook UP!
great video can you do one with the amp pro hooked up to a laptop adjusting the eq curve to see if it helps I heard these have almost a mini dsp inside them minus the time correction ? Is this True?
Door chime😒😒😒 My 2018 Silverado....I haven't hooked up a 4ch amp because of that....
Member the good ole days when you could actually add an aftermarket radio’
Throw in an amp run the wires and call it a day’
Not now….
Now it’ll cost you 1k plus dollars to get an “entry” level system trying
To override all the crap the manufactures think is “premium”
To cheap for the amp pro $400+ is more than my amp and subs
Holy infomercial.
