About the AudioControl LC-5.1300
From our tech experts at CEN
A 5-channel amplifier from AudioControl, rated at 1300w RMS.
Who it suits
Drivers whose speakers have outgrown the head unit. AudioControl built its name on signal processing, and that thinking runs through the amplifiers too.
Our tech experts advise
Matching matters more than headline watts, the gains want setting with a meter, and it needs a fused feed from the battery on the correct cable gauge. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.
