agreed. To come off the LOC and cut the rca end, you will have WAY too low voltage to feed that sub. Those are line level inputs.

I stand corrected... I just looked at kickers manual for this sub.....This may be one of the most asinine things ever. The same wires are used for high level AND low level inputs... But they will sell you an RCA adapter to use rca inputs without splicing wires
Simple solution... Pick up a set of female rca ends, and solder them onto the kickers wiring harness.
Probably cost you about $5.00, or use 2 of these... http://www.parts-express.com/parts-e...ector--090-104
Same as the kickers, but probably a TON cheaper
