Which LOC should I get?

[nate911 0]

I'm looking at upgrading the system in my G35...I've gotten almost everything figured out except the LOC. The stock HU puts out differential balanced signals and I need to convert them for my amp (planning on buying the Boss REV-665). I'm on a budget so I can't replace my HU (plus, the trim conversion kit costs over $300). I need it for 3 channels (fronts and a sub).. so a 4 channel one would work. I've heard the David Navone ones are good (NE-774V) but am concerned with things like this. Are they the best ones compared to just any LOC or should I look at something else? Ideally, I'd like to get the Audiocontrol LC6i/7 but that's out of my budget.

Thanks.

Give this a read.

I've actually already looked through that thread, thanks for the link though. Obviously, most of that stuff is out of my price range. I'm trying to figure out how bad a regular LOC will be compared to something a step up (audiocontrol). I may just buy a passive LOC and see how it does...if I think I would benefit from something better--I can upgrade later I suppose. Does anybody have experience with the David Navone one or any others?

I'll probably end up getting the NE-774V...anybody else?
