As usual another outstanding video. Thanks for what y'all do! Love the ease of my Loop!

[@aegarden6006]

I'm going on two years with my LC2i with harness for my 2016 gmc sierra w/bose and still working 💪. Great quality harnesses, set up and customer service. Thank you.

Hello Anthony, our loopbacks do have a 3 week lead time at the moment as posted on the product. Loops from 9-8/9-15 will be shipping Friday. We hope to be down to a 1 week lead time on loops and 3 days for T-Harness styles by the first week of December.

I have a 2018 gmc sierra with factory bose and 8" screen. I am trying to add a 4channel and monoblock amp. What harness/harnesses is needed? I have a Clarion EQS755 with loc built in

[@nasoccerplayer311]

Thanks for the video, great stuff.I have a question about my current build. I have AudioControl LC7i Black 6-Channel Line Output Converter, 2 after market amps(4ch amp and 2 ch amp(for subs) connecting to a factory Ford radio(i have no choice of using an after-market radio). I'm running 125watt rms to the doors(4ch) so I will use after market speaker cable, not factory internal speaker wire. So with this, im thinking these speaker wires will connect from 4ch amp to the door speakers, which makes sense but my question is where does the 2 sub speaker wire connect from the LC7i to the harness(im using PAC LPHFD31 harness) as the harness will only have the 4 pairs, not 6 which I would need?

[@paulovichd8092]

Good afternoon, connect the cables that come out of the amplifiers to the same harness or take out new cables from the speakers. I hope you can help me with that.

[@yrn_05]

If I get the elite loop back harness with the LC 4.800 like you have it paired up in the video where does the amp get its “signal/remote turn on” wire from

[@savage_63s]

Question - will the T-Harness work if I hook it up to a LC7i and then run the outputs to a sub amp and a 4 channel amp?

[@Ls.Jaayyy]

So for my 2018 GMC Sierra Bose equipped , what harness would I need to run an aftermarket subwoofer amplifier of my own choice

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

That would depend on the amp. If it takes a high level in you just need the harness if it only takes low level or you just want it to be ready for any amp you would get a link2 or lc2i or bassrestor. But like it was said if you plan to do only subs the bassrestor + the T-Harness is all you need.

[@pat14lang]

I’m looking at using the first product shown. The T-harness with LC2i Pro. If I use this, will I have any issues with the door chime volume?

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hi Patrick, no the chimes wont be affected with the T-Harness. The factory settings and speakers are not disturbed or modified in any way.

[@rafaelpureco1524]

So by connecting the rcas wires from the lc7i to the aftermarket amplifier for mids, your speakers already gaining watts from the aftermarket amp for mids , or what are you gonna connect on the speaker terminals from the aftermarket amp ? I don’t understand

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hello, on the output end of the aftermarket amp we wire in the return end of the loopback harness. This carries the amplified signal back to the speakers using the factory wiring.

[@krishadley7052]

Hey guys just have one question. I'm installing an LC2i in my truck to power an active subwoofer. Should i run both sets of front speaker wires from the harness back to the Lc2i or just one specific set of front speaker wires? TY in advance

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

If you already have the lc2i yes otherwise i would recommend a linkDQ or bassrestor much better product and tuneabilit. You will need both left and right signals to get a true mono channel

[@michaelclement5255]

Can I use one of your standard T-Harnesses as a return loop if I have a different way to feed the signal?

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Yes you can you can also buy it as a DIY configuration so that it comes color coded but no tesa tape no loom so you can do what you want with it.

[@I8591les]

I have a question once you have everything connected to the lc7i and rca’s connected to the amplifiers do you have to run new wire from the speakers to the amplifiers or is it already getting the signal from the lc7i

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hello Luis, If you plan to use a Loopback harness then the harness will have the signal for the lc7i then you RCA to tthe amp and from the amp you output back to the harness that takes it to the doors via the factory wires. If you use a T-harness or a similar device then you will need to pull your own wires after the amp

[@panalesnieto1278]

Hi I would like to buy exactly how you have the lc7i

[@vwfanatic881]

Wouldn’t it be better to jump channels 3&4 for 5&6 on the LC7i since in some cases the rear chanels might have a little more bass then fronts? Also I thought you didnt need to do this it has in internal jumper not requiring you to jump the ins at all. Have you tried the audioctron epicenerter micro, might be a good option for you to sell in your kits. Nice product I will be trying it out soon!

[@evandareaganon]

I have the loop harness using the lc5-1300 on a GMC Sierra elevation. I’m getting a turn on/off pop. What recommendations do you have to fix this issue? Thanks!

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hello Evan, thank you for the quotation. This is not an issue we seen with the AudioControl loopback. The pop can come from a late signal sent to the amp or a discharge of the amp but that is not usually the issue, its normally the remote signal will flicker turning the amp on for a second and it discharges the resting power in the amp. Check your turn on if you're using the auto turn on then use a fused remote to avoid that pop in some GM vehicles, normally the tahoes, but we have seen some Silverados and Sierras do it .

[@evandareaganon]

@@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854 I was using gto then tried a remote turn on. They are both popping. I have my power wire and the loop harness running on one side. Could this be the issue ? If not what is your recommendation to solve this issue?

[@James-bq9uh]

Does the loop back harness comes with the T harness for the specific vehicle you may added to the your cart, or do you need to add the loop back harness to your cart and then add the T harness for a different price, so would end up purchasing 2 items into the cart?

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Ah great question ! so what is in the process of happening is we will make the T-harness Accessory will be available as its own product and so will the Loopback Accessory. We are first building up an inventory . For now you can only buy one or the other.

[@James-bq9uh]

@@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854 ok great, so like in my case I would only need to purchase the elite loop back harness and that would plug in to my factory bose amplifier and gave the signal out and return signal back to my vehicle speakers for a 4 channel amplifier.

[@jesusnevarez2183]

Hello, I am glad you guys developed these harnesses. I was about to add some speakers (initially subs) to my 2020 TrailBoss (with bose) but was not sure how and not mess up any wiring. Question: Does the loop back system going into Bose amp nullify the original amps (bose) output and then just provide your new amp systems output to oem speakers? If this is the case, if I am only adding additional speakers 2 subs and some extra mids/highs on top of existing bose system, would I only need the T harness plus the LC4.800 for example? Thanks.

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hello Jesus, Thank you for watching our video. so our products don't eliminate any factory settings or data. Our Elite Loopback Harness is what you would need it takes the high level signal from the bose and feed's it, in this case to an amp like the lc4.800 then will do the audio processing. It will also takes the output of the amplifier to the factory speakers via the factory wires. The lc4.800 would also provide you with RCA outs for adding a mono amp down the road

@@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854 same question he ask, what if I have audio control lc6.1200 amp? Do I need that amp or just use the d4.800?

I have both the AudioControl Epicenter and the WAVTECH. Let me tell you that the AudioControl Epicenter is good and can't go wrong with it, BUT the WAVTECH is BETTER!... Either way you can't go wrong, but if you're looking for the best possible bass restoration then the WAVTECH is the clear choice.

Have y’all incorporated any type of customer service number, not customer service email but a customer service telephone number that people can use to reach out and ask specific questions? Essentially, sometimes with a person, the customer may type out, makes sense to them however, whenever it is read by y’all, it may not make sense so therefore the message is not conveyed correctly. Quite honestly, this is what kept me from buying yawls harnesses for two different vehicles now because For a year straight they have no customer service number and only an email that in a one or two minute phone call could answer all questions rather than emails that take a matter of days to send and then wait to receive a response and then reply back. Aside from that, the site looks good and y’all got phenomenal looking products.

[@lljcustomscaraudiofabricat7854]

Hello Wrens, Thank you for the feedback. We understand the frustration that customers feel with our decision to not offer phone support. However when LLj customs was first brought to the internet we did have phone support and we where the only company at the time besides Critchfield, Sonic elec or taco tunes that both worked on cars and sold products with the installation information and it stayed that way for 3 years. We could not keep up with the phone calls and at the time CAN-BUS was coming into play and the complexity of the conversation and information that needed to be known created calls that lasted 1-2 hours. so the decision to communicate only via text and email was made so that a reference was created for both us and the customer and so they had the note of our discussion when tuning in case we where closed. As we grew we stared to get scammed for some of our bigger kits and so we had to create records . At the end of the day placing a CUSTOM product shop on the internet as a small company, came with a unique learning curve. As we continue to grow and expand our product lines we will be offering limited phone support in the future.
