They are incompetent - do not go back. If they've never encountered someone burning up a LOC on a sub amp output that is higher than the rating, they are not an audio shop, they are clerks in a storefront. Period.

You did not search here. I went into detail several times on this very issue. I will not search for you, but suffice it to say that if you buy a better quality LOC, follow the instructions for hooking it up, and connect everything correctly, it does work. Several members in recent months have done it with great success.

I will offer this suggestion - LOCX from Soundgate. Not terribly expensive, rated to accept the power level the amp hits, and should solve your problem.

Welcome to the forums, too, BTW!
