The Sony Amp I got has a high input connection. What I concern is whether the amp will suck any engine noise or not if I use the high input connection? And Which method of installation will be better to use LOC and RCA connection or High input connection?

According to what I have found in the articles on the site, there are three top brands to use to as a LOC such as CACHE COE6, AudioControl LC6, and RE-Q. I found some deals of these products on the online and also at JB Hifi. I will be happy if anyone gets me better prices on these products...The prices I got are;

JB HIFE PRICES:
LC6 $260AU
RE-Q $160AU

Online Prices
LC6 $175USD including the delivery from US
AudioControl LC6i (lc6-gray) - Factory Sound Processors - Sonic Electronix
RE-Q $120USD including thedelivery from US
MTX RE-Q CAR AUDIO BASS & SIGNAL RESTORATION PROCESSOR - eBay Processors Only, Signal Processors, Car Electronics, Electronics. (end time 18-Apr-10 14:44:58 AEST)

Also what I think is whether there can be any fake production of these converter units?

Plus is there anyone who can help me out in fitting of the speakers and the amp at some reasonable price in Melbourne?

I will be so happy if you guys help me out in this...Thanks
