Default Need some help with audio amp upgrade

Hi All,

I love my new jeep but after only a couple of days of ownership I want to rip out my stock speakers and set them on fire!

I have the 430n stereo but the jeep only has the standard stock POS speaker system.

I did some searching and need some help with amp connectivity to the 430n H.U.

Looks like I will need a line out controller to connect an amp to the 430n.
I checked crutchfield and they have line out converters priced anywhere from around $20 to $200 and everything in between.
I am not sure what LOC I need to purchase?

Can someone please help me pick the LOC I need to purchase!!

Thanks in advance!!!

I went with the LC2i from audio control it can be found on ebay for $69. So long as you don't have the infinity stereo you can tap from the front channel in to the LC2. I have the Infinity so I couldn't get a full range from the front, got frustrated and bought the Alpine ilx007 apple radio.
