Testing out The Recoil QLOC+D and Scosche LOC2SL
Buy the Recoil here: amzn.to/3gS9JtW
The Scosche was checked with power and no power and made no difference. So the power input must be Soley for the remote turn on output.

Recoil makes really good budget electronics. Thanks for reviewing 👍

@skydyverjym Год назад

They don't have to be exciting but they sure are a help to those of us who need the info Thank you for this specifically. I am looking for these types of things as we speak

I have a couple Recoil products and I'm impressed with what you get for price..thx.

@dirtmcgirt3445 Год назад

When you said I'd be surprised, I instantly thought the Scosche was going to be the better one lol. NGL, I have one in my car rn, but I have an AudioControl LC6i I'm swapping it for once I install my 4 chan and new door speakers. By ear I didn't think it was all that bad, but I guess I'll see when I swap them. Thanks for the heads up about the other brand, I'll be getting one instead of giving my brother the hand me down Scosche when I do his build.

@louisdiaz6260 Год назад

Bro I have the first one you tested I wish I found this video before I installed it. I'm getting a new one asap!! Thanks bro.

You’re very welcome thank you!

@johnnyh127 Год назад

I believe that the Recoil is the same as the older Install Bay stuff. I was thinking about trying one as a low-level line driver.

@Bigislandguy Год назад

Thanks for info. Great knowledge. The kicker LOC has a remote wire built in. But now I know recoil is clean too🎉

@HiFiVector Год назад

Yes the kicker are great as well thanks so much for watching!

My Scosche LOC25Sl just crapped out, it still turns the amp on but the signal will not go over 0.1v. I searched for a video for some insight on this Scosche LOC and came across this video. I am ordering the Recoil LOC right now.

@michaelturner7641 7 месяцев назад

Not that exciting I find it very exciting as a matter of fact I purchased one as soon as I saw your video and I'll be hooking all my gear up tomorrow and I am very excited LOL thanks for the great content man you just picked up another subscriber

@superdave103harley Год назад

I bought the Recoil RP 1200 on 4 skar 8 SDR's but I know my KICKER LOC is causing issues. BADLY... Ordering this loc now. Thanks brother! You called it on the Recoil amp!!! You never elaborated on powered vs non powered LOC?? Maybe that's the reason for the quality, having a powered LOC makes a huge difference on maintaining line voltage.

@user-or1xh1vc8n 2 месяца назад

I have a recoil 4 channel LOC and I get a high pitch noise of feedback the moment I turn gain up even a tiny bit It does not increase with volume or with gain. It just activated or deactivated the moment gain is anything other than zero.

Um the silver knob on the recoil is the same as the knob that you didn’t connect on the scoche 🤔

I had the scosche and it went out after 3 months

@tylerjones9504 Год назад

So i have the recoil qlocd and i have it hooked up to my factory amp in my car. The wires i tapped off of were the rear speakers, the remote, and the 12v constant. All of those wires i tapped off of are going into the factory amp, i spliced them at the harness. I have a ground wire going to where my aftermarket amp is grounded as well. The only wire i do not have hooked up is the “common-“ does this wire need to be grounded? Also when i first turn on my ignition the qlocd turns on (the red light indicator comes on) then about 2 seconds after that the maximum light or yellow light shines then the whole thing turns off. Should note my aftermarket amp turns on when the qlocd does but when the maximum on the qlocd turns on my amp goes into protect and shuts off. Could anyone plz help me with any info i am stumped

@eluna9613 Год назад

Did you fix this problem?

@kevinsmith475 Год назад

Tossing up a like for real bro that was super informative BUT unfortunately the item is unavailable on Amazon now so I’m back to square one searching for the right LOC, any other units you’ve tested? Going to look through your channel later today

@redbaron2448 6 месяцев назад

So why doesn't this or these turn off, everyone says there Amp are staying on all the time with no key on , No power to it?

@courtneys9429 6 месяцев назад

Because they ran the blue switch wire to the wrong fuse under the hood.

@JacobBennett45 6 месяцев назад

Sadly i bought of these and the speaker inputs aren't turning it on. Anyone have this issue?

@Bennyblades44 Год назад

Hey I just bought this!! How do I connect the speaker wire to the thing it has a strange connector hookup deal

@HiFiVector Год назад

You just take the pos and neg speaker wires and connect to the input block.

@nathanjames4242 9 месяцев назад

The Recoil is not around $20. It’s listed for $74 on their website. Why did you say it’s $20?

@HiFiVector 9 месяцев назад

Haven’t looked since the video but the recoil in video was that price when I bought it on Amazon.

@tiffneybrooks9482 Год назад

I know im late as can be on commenting but i tell ppl all the time that the walmart LOC is bad n point to this vid for proof !!! But i was asked about the remote turn on...is it like the lc2i n turns on by signal or do u have to run a remote ???

@HiFiVector Год назад

You have to give it a ground and a power, but it does have an auto sensing feature that sends out a remote turn on signal when it senses music from the input.

@crystalline9098 7 месяцев назад

Can you use the recoil on a home stereo ?

@prestonlasater5216 Год назад

Will the reocil suffice in a 2012 ford f150 with sony navigation stereo system for an aftermarket sub install? I was told by my local car audio store that I needed the 47KEYLOC by kicker which was an astonishing $130. I'm sure it does great but does this recoil basically do what I need it to do which is run my aftermarket sub and amp with the factory head unit?

@HiFiVector Год назад

Yes it will.

@quinnchi7098 10 месяцев назад

I noticed that you did not hook up power to the Scosche. Would that make a difference???

@HiFiVector 10 месяцев назад

No it doesn't effect the line out section...it is only if you need to use the remote turn on wire. If you provide a positive constant power it will sense the audio input and then give you a remote on ( blue wire) I tried with power and no power and made no difference so in video I did not bother to hook up power.

@quinnchi7098 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for your response. I hooked up a Scosche LOC2SL to a Rockford Fosgate amp and subwoofer and it sounds pretty good. @@HiFiVector

@JH-tm9nv Год назад

Is the wiring the same on both. I regrettably have the scosche LOL tapped into the rear deck. If I purchase the recoil one is it just plug and play?

@HiFiVector Год назад

Yea same. It needs speaker connections and this recoil needs a power and ground. For a line out converter that doesn’t require power or ground and only speaker inputs I’d recommend this kicker. amzn.to/3FW4frq

@TJsVette Месяц назад

I have a LC2i (not the pro) and idk how to set the accubass feature on it. I know there is a small arrow on the side but im not sure how that all works. I cant find anything on the web or you tube showing how to actually use it. The one video i did find was of a lc7i but he didnt mess with the accubass at all.

@jayjohnson488 Год назад

have you ever tested the Kicker 46KISLOC2 ? i was hoping that would been in the test since its about same $20 as the others

@HiFiVector Год назад

Yes that one is good as well but this recoil has more features for the money.

@jayjohnson488 Год назад

@HiFiVector thank you, unfortunately I currently have the Scosche, I have a scar vd8 2 ohm sub, sealed box and an rp800 monoblock amp. Would love some advice in reference to setting the gains correctly do I have to have the line out converter all the way open to see the correct voltage coming off of the the amp to get it close? I just ordered the recoil to change it out

@jayjohnson488 Год назад

@@HiFiVector TY, 1 last question, with the recoil can i hook my positive speaker wire to the remote in to give it power for remote turn on? my schoshe uses it and ive seen others do the same with kicker all in one sub/amp?? just figured i would more expert opiniob

@guestguest 10 месяцев назад

Would I need one of these if I already have an aftermarket head unit?

@HiFiVector 10 месяцев назад

No, you won’t need it cause your head unit has RCA output already

@guestguest 10 месяцев назад

But I don’t think my rca signal is as good as this one. Plus I like the clip light too lol. Could I use 1 anyway?

@dragon76er Год назад

I have a taramps ds 800x4 and the manual says 2v max. What impact on the amplifier does a higher voltage have?

@HiFiVector Год назад

Are you referring to the rca input voltage?

@dragon76er Год назад

@HiFi Vector yes and how do I combat that? I see that in this video if the voltage is too low you get a distorted signal. What's happens if it's too high? Will this product enable you to adjust voltage?

@HiFiVector Год назад

@@dragon76er The high or low voltage doesn't really mean distortion. Most normal RCA voltages are from 1v to about 6 volt. I believe on the Taramps model you have the reason they want only 2v or less rca input voltage is because if it is higher the amps gain knob sensitivity will go up. As they designed the amp around 2v or under pre amp input voltage. I do know a lot of people who runs those and havent heard of an issue and I know most of the guys never checked their RCA voltage. But if you like you can use a DSP like this to reduce your pre amp ouput voltage. Or You can use this Line out converter do do it as well. Here are some links. amzn.to/3QxsVu0 NVX line out converter amzn.to/3IGtxMa stetsom DSP stetsom bluetooth DSP amzn.to/3GvtNe7

@chandlerjackson3040 Год назад

I know this wasn’t the point of your video but i can’t find the answer anywhere on the 2sl what kind of wire do i use when connecting the blue remote wire that’s next to the rca outputs to my amp. Again the answer could be obvious i just seem to be overlooking the answer

@HiFiVector Год назад

For a remote wire you just need 18AWG stranded 12v wire with a flexible coating like silicone. Some of the stuff at the local auto parts stores is stiff and hard to manipulate. You can use 16AWG also but not necessary, 18awg is fine. Here is a link to some good cheap remote wire: amzn.to/3IBI7Vm
