It's class AB which is a power hog, 30-40% of your power used goes straight to heat and you'll never tell the difference between AB and D for a sub amp. If you insist on using the amp, I'd just get something [like this](http://www.amazon.com/PAC-LP7-2-L-O-C-2-Channel-Converter/dp/B00F0YASQ2). A LOC doesn't matter too much for bass so long as it is installed well(ground loop being the worst problem usually). Bring the high level as close to the amp as possible and use the shortest RCAs possible between the LOC and amp, grounding the LOC to the same place as the AMP.  For a little more than the LOC you posted you could have [800x1@1Ω](http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-GM-D8601-Class-Amplifier-Remote/dp/B00CFX58YI/) or for a little bit more than that [1200w x 1@1Ω](http://www.amazon.com/PIONEER-GM-D9601-WATTS-CLASS-D-MONO/dp/B00CLFM596).  ~~A pisser with the LC2i is you need a remote turn on lead for it, using the stock deck you'll have to run another wire from a switched source to act like the remote turn on for the LOC which has a delayed remote turn on for the amp.~~ The PAC LOC I linked senses the audio then gives you a remote turn on to feed the amp.\r\n\r\nedit: after reading LC2i manual, it wasn't obvious from the crutchfield page but it does have GTO sense to turn on when it hears something then power the amp.","subreddit_name":"CarAV","author":"illuxion"},{"body":"I did with my 2012.\r\n\r\nI got this:\r\n\r\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F0YASQ2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1\r\n\r\nand have a single 12\" Infinity Reference pushed by an Alpine amp (500 watt @2ohms).\r\nhttp://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/mrp-m500\r\n\r\nThe best thing about that RCA converter is that it has remote turn on via signal detection, so I didn't have to run a line to the front of the car. It's pretty well the perfect setup for a stock head unit. I had planned on upgrading everything, but the front sound stage with the factory speakers is not too shabby.\r\n\r\nYou said \"subs\". Will a dual-sub box fit into the trunk from the back seat? You won't be able to get it in through the trunk! I downsized to a single sub and it sounds great.  What equipment are you installing?\r\n\r\n","subreddit_name":"camaro","author":"hazmatte"}]}
