The DS18 MTLOC2 is a 2‑channel high‑to‑low level line output converter engineered to convert high‑level speaker signals from factory or aftermarket head units into clean low‑level RCA preamp outputs for use with aftermarket amplifiers. It supports selectable 20 V or 40 V high‑level inputs to match a wide range of OEM systems without triggering errors, and includes auto turn‑on options (audio sense, DC offset, or remote) for hassle‑free amplifier activation. Housed in a rugged aluminum casing with noise rejection and surface‑mount technology, the MTLOC2 processes audio across a wide frequency range (10 Hz–20 kHz) with ultra‑low distortion (<0.01 %), preserving clarity and detail in your signal chain. Its adjustable level matching controls and remote output make it ideal for upgrading factory systems to powerful aftermarket setups.
