This is handy when the factory system has multiple, actively crossed-over signals sent from the OEM source unit or amplifier(s). For example, in some vehicles there is an actively crossed-over tweeter, midrange, and woofer all in the front of the vehicle. The LC8i lets you take all of those signals and sum them together to get a high-quality, full-range, pre-amp signal without the use of any additional cables or hardware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutoMode Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWhen there is no signal present at the channel 4 input, the channel 3 input automatically feeds the channel 3 and channel 4 outputs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuxiliary Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThere is a pair of RCA auxiliary input jacks on the unit so you can easily add an iPod, satellite radio, or other secondary source.
