You must have tapped the wrong wires after the amp. If the speaker changes volume the converter will change volume. You really need to verify that you have the actual speaker wires coming off of the amp.

I dont know much about this particular system, but logicaly it sound to me like you have the right ones, line level out from the radio. It seems odd that it didnt work.

I spliced into the input signal wire from the hu to a loc to amps the signals work and i hear the music fine but i lost the control of the volume i have no control of it whatsoever. Those wires you taped into are already line level, no need for a Line out converter. Just cut a RCA wire and slpice into those wires again. Maybe thats what went wrong. LOC bring speaker level down to line level, you are already at line level just need to convert wires to rca jack and plug into amp. good luck, Frank

Hey frank thanx for the help bro. Do you mean each wire gets a rca head spliced to it for example LF+ in one rca head and LF- to another? and the same for RF+ and RF- leaving me with 4 rcas? lol Sorry for sounding like a newb but im still in tech school learning just trying to learn more hands on. thanx for the help guys?
Also did this fix ur volume control?
