Wavtech link8 8-channel line output converter and summing processor

Your aftermarket processors and amplifiers need clean and robust line-level input signals, especially when getting them from a factory amplifier's speaker outputs. Wāvtech's link8 line output converter can produce up to 10 volts of output per channel — plenty enough for your aftermarket gear to work with.

8-channel summing processor

The link8's eight channels can get routed into a number of different configurations. Two input channels can be routed to eight outputs, for example. Or, eight inputs could get summed together in pairs and routed through four outputs. The link8 will work great in a factory system with separately powered front tweeters, front midrange drivers, rear full-range speakers, with two channels available for a subwoofer amp's input.

Multi-function remote and auxiliary input

An auxiliary input lets you conveniently plug in your phone or player to become a music source. The remote lets you select sources as well as control the master volume, the Aux level, and the independent channels 7/8, usually used for subs.

Works with factory amps

Those speaker-level inputs can handle up to 40 volts, the equivalent of 400 watts, so you can use one in a premium system with a factory amplifier and still retain all your vehicle's factory audio options and warnings. The link8's gain controls and clip lights help you keep the signal level under control and distortion-free.
