Eric Church
Revolution has cast a spark in mainstream country music, and outlaw rebel Eric Church is to blame. Since the release of his first album, Sinners Like Me (2006), Church has led his pack one-by-one through retrospective songwriting, invigorating live shows, and a hard-boiled attitude soaked in blood and sweat, and ice cold beers. Perhaps that's why his recent No. 1 singles "Drink In My Hand" and "Springsteen" have accomplished RIAA Gold and Platinum certification, respectively, and his first headlining arena tour, aptly titled Eric Church: The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour, is experiencing record-breaking sales and prompting rave critical reviews. Moreover, there's no doubt since the release of his ground-breaking RIAA Certified Platinum third album CHIEF, his tenacious tribe of disciples is demanding the world's help in catapulting their 'chief' of country music from smoky barroom songster to headlining arena superstar.
On board with the upheaval in naming CHIEF one of NPR's Top Albums of The Year, renowned critic Ann Powers writes:
"Mainstream music is full of macho dudes in faded designer jeans, but it's rare to find an artist with enough sophistication and self-awareness to make the outlaw persona feel genuine. Enter Eric Church: The North Carolina native honky-tonker who fully embraces country clichés, but sharpens them with wit, chronicling wild nights and epic hangovers with just the right amount of critical distance, and single with the cool world-weariness of someone who's lost a few lovers and parking-lot fights."
Rolling Stone, SPIN, iTunes, and the Los Angeles Times also joined the crusade in granting Church coveted end-of-the-year 'top album' accolades, and the release of CHIEF earned RIAA Gold Certified sales in only six weeks, helping to launch fan-favorite party anthem and third single release "Drink In My Hand," to No. 1 on the country radio charts. Furthermore, positioned at the apex of life-long achievements for Church, he experienced the exhilaration of his first-ever GRAMMY nomination with CHIEF for Best Country Album and ACM nominations for Album of the Year and Video of the Year for "Homeboy."
Having kicked off Eric Church: The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour on January 19 in Fort Smith, AR, Church is bringing his raucous live show to arena-filled venues from New York, NY to Los Angeles, CA, Chicago, IL, Nashville, TN and everywhere in between in 2012.
"Normally, you have No. 1 singles before you have No. 1 albums and arena tours, but for us, it was the other way," says Church who began planning the arena tour months before ever reaching the singles summit with "Drink In My Hand" and the two-week No. 1, "Springsteen" – both Church personally co-wrote. Cultivating a devoted fan base without sacrificing musical integrity and self-expression, Church has built up his following slowly, but the hard work is finally proving to have paid off.
Reflecting on his creative process when crafting the game-changing album CHIEF, Church used his opportunity to make a new record provided by his success to push his creativity and live show even further. "I have a theory that all of us only get a small window of time to make records when people will really listen and care," he says. "It's up to us to move the needle. People like Waylon and Cash or Garth and Strait - they all took the format and said 'We're going over here,' and they all changed the direction of the music a little bit."
Although his debut album, Sinners Like Me, established him as one of the most acclaimed new songwriters in country music; and the follow-up, 2009's RIAA Gold Certified Carolina, produced the singles "Love Your Love the Most" and "Smoke a Little Smoke," which—along with the continually escalating popularity of his hard-charging live show—elevated Church to the top ranks of today's country stars in early 2011 at which point Church decided to take a step back to give some thought to his next creative direction.
"I took about a month off and went to a cabin in North Carolina," he says. "We've always blazed our own trail and I was trying to figure out where it needed to go and, honestly, I wasn't sure. So, I didn't go anywhere for a month. Writers came out and we just wrote songs all day and all night. That really stoked the creative flame. Then, I spent the next six months on tour writing whenever I could."
The songs that resulted illustrate Church's impressive range. Some of the titles like his first career No. 1 Billboard single "Drink in My Hand" or "Hungover and Hard Up," instantly show that he's still comfortable with the expectations of his rowdy live audience. "You've got to know what's going to fire them up," he says, "but, you also need to give them a twist, something they can't just go back and get from the other two records." Other songs, like the ambitious third single and second No. 1 "Springsteen" or "Like Jesus Does," reveal complicated emotions and sophisticated song structures.
Church's fourth single release from the record, "Creepin'," kicks-off CHIEF."It's interesting how sonically it matches the lyrics, then, it gets full-blown and tries to creep out. I love the Roger Miller 'bow-ba-bow' vocal—that wasn't planned, it was just a product of being in the room and being involved in the magic." It's that fearlessness both on stage and in the studio that continually sets Church apart--earning him performances on stages opening for Metallica at Orion Festival and alongside top names at CMA Music Festival's LP Field.
Perhaps the bravest track on CHIEF is the first single, "Homeboy," a provocative appeal from one brother to another to get back on track and make peace with his family that was recently RIAA Gold Certified.
"'Homeboy' deals with social issues and with everyday life," says Church. "It was pretty challenging for me to take that term 'homeboy' and use it as slang, as a destination, and then at the end, as a spiritual place. Sonically, it's like three or four different songs. It's not something people are used to," he continues, "and there can be a price to pay for that. I've had people say 'that's strange,' 'it's odd'—things that some people might run from but, I think it's fantastic."
When it came time to record the album, Church had a sound in mind that felt different from his first two releases. "This record, more than anything else I've done, is breathing and alive," he says. "There's a wildness to it. It's untamed and not very harnessed."
This energy started with the singer's own role in the sessions. Much of CHIEF was cut live in the studio. Church played guitar with the band (and for the first time on record, electric guitar on "Like Jesus Does") and some of the final versions even use the original tracking vocal.
Church gives credit to producer Jay Joyce, with whom he has made all three of his albums, for helping to bring this excitement out on the tracks. "There's just a comfort level with Jay," he says. "We've both learned to sit back and let each other try different paths and get farther out there. A lot of stuff we just tried, like the handclap loop on 'Homeboy,' just because we weren't afraid. We never thought there was anything we couldn't do. I think it's the most aggressive record I've made because of that."
Though Church's focus on CHIEF is on looking forward rather than looking back, he does acknowledge that the surprising success of chart-topping single release "Smoke a Little Smoke" allowed him to explore and experiment with his new songs. Church explains, "This was the first time I picked a single because of the reaction on the road and it paid off." And his desire to capture the intensity of his live show on record is indicated right in the title of the new album. "'Chief' is my nickname on the road," Church reveals. "When it's show time, I put on the sunglasses and the hat, and that's how people know it's game time. This album was made from a live place; we recorded it with the live show in mind, so it just seemed right to make that the title."
If there is one thing country music needs more of, it's the attitude that is driving Eric Church, the approach behind every song on CHIEF, the fearlessness that lets an artist swing for the fences and attempt to change the musical landscape. "There were safer choices I could have made for sure, but I just can't feel that helps anybody," he says. "If you have any respect for the music, you'll use each chance you get to try to be one of the ones who moves the flag."

A discipline which Pierre Schaeffer describes in his Traité des Objets Musicaux in which he draws an analogy between phonetics and phonology on the one hand and acoustics and acoulogie on the other. As phonetics is concerned with the sounds that form a language and acoustics is concerned with the physical foundation of sounds, phonology is focused on the function of sounds in language, acoulogie on the function of sound in the act of composition.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the AudioControl LCQ-1 by Buck Pomerantz AudioControl's LCQ-1 six-channel signal processor lets you bridge the gap between your factory stereo and the high performance power of aftermarket amplifiers, speakers, and subs. It accepts speaker-level signals from your factory radio or amplifier and lets you custom tune the output to achieve audiophile performance in your car. You'll keep all the features of your car's audio system, like navigation and Bluetooth®, and maintain your car's showroom look, while enjoying performance that a factory sound system can only dream about. Inputs and outputs The LCQ-1 features six speaker-level inputs that accept the amplified output of your existing factory system. The LCQ-1 sums all the signals you send it, even if they're actively crossed over by your factory system, so you get a strong, full-range signal for your processors and amps. The LCQ-1's 6-channel RCA preamp outputs connect to up to three external amplifiers. The optional dash-mount remote control allows you to adjust the level of your sub channel on the go. Serious equalization for seriously good sound The LCQ-1 lets you get the sound you want, whether you like your sound heavy on the lows, screaming on the highs, or somewhere in-between. You'll find independent EQ for the front, rear, and sub outputs, while AudioControl's AccuBASS™ signal processing corrects factory-set bass levels that limit the full potential of your system's low end.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The AudioControl LCQ-1 is a powerful six-channel signal processor that provides a gateway between factory installed source units and aftermarket amplifiers. It is a compact, six-channel, high-performance, OEM line-output converter with independent multichannel equalizers to custom tune your car audio system. The LCQ-1 allows you to easily "tune" your audio system & receive improved sound quality. An ideal combination of discrete equalization controls combined with AudioControl's unique OEM integration circuitry, the LCQ-1 maximizes the performance of factory installed audio systems. No longer will you have to compromise when performing basic amplifier additions to a factory installed audio system. The active circuitry used in the LCQ-1 provides dramatically better sound quality & enhances the bass response. AccuBASS: Designed for maximum sound quality and enhanced audio performance, the LCQ-1 is the latest AudioControl processor to incorporate AccuBASS. This patent pending process automatically corrects for the bass roll-off that is common with many factory-installed audio systems. Factory installed amplifiers and woofers are (unfortunately) not designed to reproduce bass at high volumes. Car manufacturers adapt to this by taking the bass out of the signal when you turn up the volume. AudioControl developed the patent pending AccuBASS circuit to restore bass. After a quick and easy one-time setting, the AccuBASS circuit takes over the bass just as the factory system rolls off. You get smooth, seamless, and rock solid bass response regardless of volume level. Individual Equalization Controls: To custom tune your system, the LCQ-1 gives you dedicated equalization controls for the Front, Rear, & Subwoofer outputs. Channel Type Equalization Frequencies Level Adjustment Front 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 8kHz -12 to +12 dB Rear 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 8kHz -12 to +12 dB Subwoofer 31.5Hz, 50Hz, 63Hz, 80Hz, 1000Hz -12 to +12 dB 6ch Speaker Level Inputs: The LCQ-1 has active, high-voltage, high-impedance (20K Ohms) speaker-level inputs that accepts signals from high power, factory installed amplifiers (up to 400 watts per channel). This means the AudioControl LCQ-1 will work with factory-installed audio systems and give you a higher-quality signal with lower noise, lower distortion, and higher output voltage. These inputs get their signals from the speaker-level outputs of your factory installed source unit or amplifier. If your source unit has front, rear, & subwoofer speaker-level outputs, connect them to the three sets of inputs on your LCQ-1. AutoMode Input: If the source unit only has front & rear outputs, the Auto Mode circuitry in your LCQ-1 automatically routes the Channel 2 input channels to the (Channel 3) subwoofer channels. Internal Channel Summing: The LCQ-1 employs internal channel summing for interfacing with factory installed amplifiers with built-in crossovers. Channel summing lets you eliminate any factory-installed active crossovers. Many of today's factory stereo systems include separately amplified & crossed-over tweeters, midranges, & subs. If you are going to add aftermarket amps and speakers to the car you will need to combine (or sum) these separate signals into a single full-range signal for the new system. The LCQ-1 has the capability to combine together multiple (2, 4, or 6) input signals from the factory source unit into 2 channels. The LCQ-1 has internal jumpers that allow you to select which input signals will be summed into the Main outputs. When the jumper is moved to the "Sum" position, there will also be a corresponding green indicator light on the front of the LCQ-1. Note: The LCQ-1 is shipped from the factory in the non-summed (separate) position. Preamp Outputs: The AudioControl LCQ-1 is equipped with 3 stereo preamp outputs (Front/Main, Rear/Ch2, and Sub/Ch3) to connect to your aftermarket amplifier(s). Each stereo preamp output has an independent level control which allows you adjust the signal level from your factory source unit to match the input of your aftermarket amplifier(s). GTO (Great Turn-On) Circuit: The main speaker level inputs have a signal sensing circuit (GTO) that turns the unit "On" when there's a speaker level input signal, and turns the unit off when the signal disappears. Remote Output: The +12 volt DC remote output will trigger an amp to turn on whenever the LCQ-1 is "On". The remote's maximum current output is 1 amp. Optional Remote Control: You can add a multi-function dash control (161ACR2, sold separately) that allows you to set the level of the subwoofer. It also has an in/out switch for the equalizer function so you can hear the system before and after your tuning changes. The ACR-2 is a multi-function remote that gives you control over the level of the Channel 3/Subwoofer output so you can balance the bass level with the rest of the system. An additional feature of the ACR-2 dash remote is that it allows the equalization to be switched in and out of the audio circuit by tapping the switch. You can hear the system before and after the EQ adjustments. Installation: The LCQ-1 needs to be installed in the signal path between your OEM source unit (or factory amplifier) and aftermarket amplifier(s) and/or processor(s). Do not connect the LCQ-1 between the factory head unit and the factory amplifier. Locate the amplified speaker wires that are coming from your factory source unit and/or amplifier and connect them to the speaker-level inputs on the LCQ-1. In many cases you can find factory speaker leads in the rear of the vehicle or at the factory amplifier. Then use RCA connecting cables to connect the RCA outputs of the LCQ-1 to your aftermarket amplifier(s). Finally, connect +12V power and ground. The LCQ-1 has a 12-volt trigger input, but normally you will just let the GTO turn on circuit take care of that by itself.

Just bought the new LCQ-1 and installed into my 2013 Kia Forte... I must say, it's done one heck of a job! Before the LCQ-1, I had a Scoche line converter installed, which ran RCA's out to my 4-channel amp (for door speakers) and Class-D mono-block amp for the 12" Woofer. It sounded muffled and "crackly", but now with the LCQ-1, all the crisp, highs and lows come out and my car thumps like crazy! The factory door speakers actually hold up pretty good about half-way on the volume, but start to break up with alot of power, so they will need to eventually be upgraded, however, the 12" (Sony X-Plode 1200W) subwoofer pounds all day long...The AccuBass setting on the LCQ-1 really drives the lows deep and gives the factory stereo a whole new sound. I still need to make a few changes here and there, such as upgrading the door speakers, but for now, I am glad I spent the money on a quality product. Thanks Audio Control! r/ Tom Pros: Plenty of gain on all filters, easily connected, directions are simplified, If you have a factory stereo sharing ground on all speakers, this unit will sum the channels needed; Unit has a built in ground-loop isolator Cons: Unit did not come w/ remote gain control (sold separately) 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 save your dash Written By MattS, Richmond,VA on Wednesday, August 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) In my current Mazda 3i I simply did not want to modify the dash, in comes the AudioControlLCQ-1. It sits in my glove box, where I can fine adjust it at will. It sums my speaker wires into 6 RCA lines that feed into 2 alpine amps one being a four channel and the other a mono. They rest under the front seats. I believe the ' Rux wired gain knob ' is well worth the money ! W/ it I can adjust my systems base extremely well. The Audio ControlLCQ-1 cost about a bit to have installed, so I can't make any comments on struggling w/ wires or instructions ! I am EXTREMELY happy with it, and I do not feel it sounds that much different than my older Kenwood Kac-889. If you are looking to keep your dash look/factory deck/steering wheel controls,etc.. W/o adding tons of add ons' look this up. Post script- if you do go cheaper, say w/ just a line converter? BEWARE you won't get an EQ! Pros: Takes a four channel factory head unit( in my case ) and sums FR.,RR., and sub, RCA lines. Has a 6 way EQ, w/ optional wired bass gain knob, can be installed in most locations Cons: taking the cover off can to be hard to get back on, POSSIBLY POSSIBLY you may need to replace your factory speaker wires, other than that none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 LCQ-1 Written By Ryan, Peoria, AZ on Saturday, May 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very good product for factory integration and the equalization feature is even better, however I remain unhappy with it. My stereo can't be swapped, otherwise I would go with a new head unit in a heartbeat. If possible, go with a new head unit b/c this costs as much as one without nearly the amount of control. I installed the system I had in a different car and with this a part of the system, the speakers sound great but the sub doesn't. I know this because my sub hit maybe 3 times harder in my old car attached to a head unit. This may be due to the fact that my factory stereo doesn't have a subwoofer output but who know, either way, I'm not terribly happy with the results even with hours of fiddling with the controls. Pros: Equalization, integration Cons: Reconstruction of the sub channel from front/rear output from factory radio is sub-par 3 out of 10 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Best option for integrated factory systems Written By Ben, Fairborn, OH on Thursday, April 18, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This LOC was perfect for my new vehicle. The factory stereo lacked any actual power to the speakers. I added new speakers and amps to the factory stereo. The EQ sound control was amazing. It allows you to tune it in to your liking. The factory Bass Mid Treble gave no real tuning capabilities. I was absolutely amazed at the sound this unit produced. The factory sound was lacking, but this brought the system to life. I usually get new aftermarket head units for my cars, but this is a much better option for newer vehicles with integrated controls and other amenities. The factory unit had built in Bluetooth, a USB port for mp3 media. This unit kept all of this working. And with XM built in the factory, there is no separate external antenna as with an aftermarket head unit. It was exactly what I needed. The Crutchfield support was great as well. They gave me the info on my car and the wires I needed to tie into. Pros: Great sound shaping and control utilizing factory stereo. Cons: None for my set up. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Works great...mostly. Written By Tony, S. Florida on Monday, March 11, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The LCQ-1 installed fairly simply in my 2013 Tacoma PreRunner Double Cab (behind the rear passenger-side, seat, along with the compact powered sub). The unit's quality is very good, and hookup was a snap. The sound improvement with the factory head unit was very noticable, especially with the ACR-2, which allows instant a/b comparison (unit in-circuit/out of circuit). The only problem I had was the GTO circuit (auto turn on by sensing input signals) is apparently too sensitive - like many newer vehicles, there is a slight ripple on the speaker leads, whether the stereo is on or off. This is not audible, but it fools the GTO into keeping the LCQ-1 (and the powered sub 4-channel pwer amp, which are both activated by the LCQ-1's remote out) on whenever the truck's ignition is on. Further, when turning the truck off, ther was a loud transient "pop" in all speakers (including the sub) a few seconds after turning the truck off. I finally had to defeat the GTO via the internal jumper, and connect the remote line to the truck's switched 12 volt supply at the fusebox. All works fine now, but Had I known, I'd have skipped the GTO circuit in the first place, saving a few hours extra work running the remote line. Pros: Excellent improvement in sound quality, while retaining the factory head unit's functionality and features (steering wheel controls, BlueTooth, and Hands-Free phone). Cons: The GTO gave me fits; AudioSource's Tech support was great, but there's only so much that can be done with a modern vehicle, and all the digital funk flying around its electrical system. 7 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Truly great! Written By Bob, Buford , ga on Saturday, March 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installed in my 12 Honda si coupe. Love it! It really opened up the mods and now my iPod sounds great through the factory head unit. Open box unit looked new, like it was opened and closed, crutchfield was great as usual, double boxes and 2 days. Not enough space to put all the pluses after the A. Pros: Everything! Cons: Wasn't free 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Nice idea but... Written By DaleyDriver, Palm Beach FL on Monday, September 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This device works very well - it provides a way to CLEANLY interface with a factory head unit. And the basic eq functions is a welcome addition to smoothing out the frequency response of the cabin. All in all, a great value for the money and a very strong performer. So what's the problem? It comes down to the manual and marketing materials. Both would have you believe that you can take a few as 2 channels of input and turn that into 6 channels of output (front, rear and sub) and you'd waste 2 hours on a rainy Sunday night trying in vain to troubleshoot your sub amp, woofers, interconnects... well you get the picture. In order to get sub out, you must use 4 channels of input, forget what the Summed feature would lead you to think. Once past that hurdle, sonic integration bliss awaits. Pros: Works well, good price, flexible features that work. Cons: Documentation is vague with regards to those of us with only 2 channels of input. Putting the cover back on after moving internal jumpers is an exercise in patience. Get it wrong and you will break an LED or a rotary tuning knob. Cannot sum front main channel input to provide front, mid and sub outs. 7 out of 10 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Works Great!!!!

Yes | No 2 out of 5 Not worth the cost Written By Luke R., Raleigh, NC on Tuesday, May 01, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit appeared to be exactly what I needed to retain my stock head unit and add an aftermarket amplifier. However, the unit does not fully work as advertised. My head unit has no amplifier turn-on lead, meaning that when the ignition switch is on, the LCQ-1 and amp are always on. But wait, the LCQ-1 has the ability to turn itself on by sensing an incoming signal from its speaker inputs. Great idea. Too bad it doesn't work. I tried two of these units and neither would recognize the source signal and power up. The Audio Control technical support was great but none of their suggestions to get it working the way I wanted succeeded. I wound up installing a switch in my dash to turn the loc off when I am not listening to my stereo. My other gripe about this unit is that it is noisy. I thought my amp was generating transistor hiss during idle. Turns out it is the LCQ-1. With the car off, the head unit off, and just the loc and amp turned on, there is considerable idle hiss present. Disconnecting the low level cables from the LCQ-1 proved this, as the hiss totally disappeared. I'll work on this issue to see if I can eliminate it. Pros: the equalizer and bass threshold control Cons: auto signal sensing turn-on ability does not work the cover plate is very difficult to reinstall if you change any of the jumpers on the circuit board (poor design) most of the circuit board jumpers are not labeled according to the documentation's labels (they just have J16 or J10 instead of what they are for) 2 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Not for 2012 Tacoma Written By Todd, New York on Thursday, April 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) After purchase of my new 2012 Double Cab Tacoma, I wanted better sound quality. The factory head unit has all the features I want; Bluetooth phone and audio, Sat radio, USB and aux inputs all with steering wheel controls, but the factory speakers were lacking a LOT. This unit was necessary to keep the factory head unit and add a 4 ch. amp, all new speakers and a powered sub. Plus, I was excited to get teh EQ to fine tune the stereo with. Well, apparently this unit doesn't like the signal from the 2012 Toyota radio. I was on the phone with Crutchfield tech support three times on a Sunday afternoon. (Amazing that a company even HAS tech support on a Sunday!) We tested my speaker wires, my power and ground connections and all my RCA outs. Everything into the unit was fine and everything out of the unit was fine. Tech support determines that this unit must be defective, so they immediately ship me a new one. Second unit, same as the first. Frustrated, I call Audio Controls directly. We recheck everything and they even had their engineers try to figure it out. No one can figure out why this doesn't work. So, I get back with Crutchfield and they are very apologetic and we agree to try the JL Cleensweep unit. This is on it's way to me now (fingers crossed that the Toyota head works with it) and I am even getting a discount. Crutchfield is amazing to deal with. Cons: Doesn't seem to work with the Toyota Tacoma 2012 factory radio. 7 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Just what I needed! Written By Fanch, TX on Wednesday, March 14, 2012 I installed this in my 2011 F-150 with the stock factory radio (non-Sony, non-Nav) along with speaker upgrades, amps and subs. I wanted to keep the factory look but fix the horrible factory sound. I was skeptical at first, but now I can honestly say the LCQ-1 is amazing! It works as advertised. The equalizer allowed me to fill the frequency gaps in the factory radio an correct for the bass roll-off at higher volumes. The features if this unit really let you customize the sound the way you want it. It took some trial and error to dial in the EQ but now it sounds perfect. If great sound quality is your goal, you need this unit just as much as the amps and speakers. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 AudioControl LCQ-1 Written By BobK, Kentucky on Wednesday, February 08, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased this to integrate with the factory system in my Lexus because the factory sound system was severely lacking. It is a great one piece integration device with several features that are necessary to achieve the quality that an aftermarket system can deliver. My factory system has the HVAC controls, navigation, radio and Bluetooth all built into the one unit so replacing it with an aftermarket head unit is out of the question. I took the factory signal after the amp in the trunk into the LCQ-1 for the front left and right speakers and sub and ran RCA's to my aftermarket amplifiers. I left the factory amplifier hooked up to the center channel and rear speakers because amplifying those was not necessary to achieve a realistic soundstage in my car. The LCQ-1 is 100% noise free and delivers a strong and clean signal to my aftermarket amplifiers. The sound quality is excellent and It is as nice as a top notch aftermarket head unit. The equalizer has enough bands and they are at the right frequencies to address problem areas found in most cars. The EQ is what makes a good system sound great. During this process I also upgraded the factory front speakers to Focal 165 V30 and put some decent power to the factory 10" sub. I plan on installing an aftermarket sub in the near future as well. I used an RTA and my ears to dial things in and achieved a very wide and dynamic sound with properly placed instruments and vocals. It even has an optional sub level control. Pros: High quality processor with typical solid AudioControl electronics and build quality. Compact, easy to use and is a great one piece solution for OEM integration with just enough bells and whistles to satisfy an audiophile. 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 questions already asked Concerns about integration in 2010 Ford Expedition without NAV or RSE but does have in-dash 6 Disc player. Also of concern is rear backing assist tones from a rear speaker. When radio/LCQ/system is off, will I still hear these tones? Will the LCQ detect these tones and turn on and pass these tones?

Ask for help! Seek academic tutoring and personal advice from peers, upperclassmen, profs, and deans. Everyone is willing to help but only if they know you need it.

Swat has a social life that is a leap forward for some and a step back for others. There usually is something for everyone, but going into Philly to fill in the gaps is a good idea.

Swarthmore is known for being one of the most academically rigorous college in the country. This is true but studying what one is truly interested in and passionate about makes the heavy reading and problem sets worth while.

Quirky people who want to work hard academically but are also interested in making some kind of social change.
Tips for prospective students
Take advantage of everything the school offers! Create a project.
Bang for the buck
The school is expensive but has a big endowment, which translates to a lot of financial aid. Appealing for more aid does help if you can point out some concrete reasons--I appealed my first financial aid offer and got a better one. About half of the students here are getting some sort of assistance.
Am enjoying being here
Swarthmore is small and can get feel a little cramped sometimes, and often you'll find yourself with too much work to fully take advantage of all the other things going on. That aside, I love it. The people here are not only brilliant but really interesting and friendly. Everyone has a pet project. The campus is gorgeous and very walkable, dorms are quite good, and there are plenty of parties on the weekends as well as lectures, exhibits, film screenings, weird traditions, and various other get-togethers.
Am learning a lot
Swarthmore is one of the toughest colleges in the country, but it pays off. Aside from major intro classes like Psch 1 and Bio 1&2, class sizes are very small. Professors are brilliant and AVAILABLE--unlike profs at huge research universities, they only teach undergrad and therefore have time and patience for undergrads. DO: Take advantage of the Writing Associates, your professors and advisor, and first-year seminars. DON'T: Underestimate the amount of work you'll be doing.

You need a good GPA and test scores. If you don't have that then don't even apply you have no chance. Also try to get an interview with somebody at some point because that will help a lot.

Swarthmore in the past has had a reputation for drawing in swawkward students as they say but really the school is nicely mixed between all types of people. The thing we all have in common is we came here knowing we were going to have to do a lot of work because we wanted to learn.
Tips for prospective students
Swarthmore likes well-rounded people. I have friends who are fluent in 12 languages and worked for corporations in NY, or are ultimate frisbee playing, theater performers majoring in engineering, etc. Just do what you like and don't feel the need to limit yourself to one thing.
Bang for the buck
It is quite expensive, but I feel as though it is worth it, so long as you are willing to make it work for you.
Am enjoying being here
It can get a bit stressful when everyone is worried about exams but usually the campus is full of very relatively happy, diversely entertaining individuals.
Am learning a lot
One of things I like most about Swarthmore is that sometimes you don't even realize just how much you are learning and not just in class. Hanging around all kinds of different people with different majors and interests means you'll pick up on a lot of new things.

Categories Comments What to do for fun
There are on-campus parties (almost nothing happens off campus, as Swarthmore is a dry town), which range from standard frat parties to pub nights to completely sober events, like SCCS video game events, or Parrish Parlor Parties (usually games and free food). The first floor of the main library or science libraries are places to socialize while still vaguely getting work done.
Food and Dining
There is only one dining hall, Sharples, one snack bar, and two coffee bars. The selection is not fantastic compared to many other schools, but I found it met the needs of a busy student who just wanted to be fed without worrying about cooking. Having one dining hall actually makes Sharples a great place to run into people, and catch up with busy friends over a meal.
Dorm Life
Dorm life is essential to the social scene at Swat, and very few people live off campus. Study breaks, hall crawls, and random social events are a key part of campus life, even for upperclassmen.
Academic Rigor
Of course, a college education is what you make of it, and you can get through Swarthmore with less than five-star rigor, but if you push yourself, the expectations can be very high, especially when you take your honors exams senior year.
Tips for prospective students
Make sure you love to learn for the sake of learning. If you're more interested in college as a means to an end, you will probably be pretty unhappy at Swarthmore.
In three sentences
Swarthmore is a great place to pursue your academic passions and push yourself to realize your full potential. It's not for everyone; the academics can be pretty intense, depending on your major and if you choose to enter the Honors Program, and the social scene can be subdued compared to other colleges.

Studious students, those who can manage their time well, and those who are always looking to go above and beyond.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Crum Creek is awesome and the Crum Regatta that happens is fun! Screw Your Roommate is a very fun and quirky tradition. The Yule Ball is a lot of fun to attend as they have snacks catered to Harry Potter themes!
What to do for fun
Lounge on Parrish Beach, go into the city, meet up with friends at Hobbs (the only coffee shop in town), have study parties in Parrish or McCabe!
Tips for prospective students
First semester will be pass/fail, but don't take classes too lightly even then! Start off your college career with a good handle on work and time management so that you're not suddenly bombarded with worries when grades start to matter! Also, definitely take the time to visit professors during office hours! They genuinely want to help you and meet with you and can offer great tips/advice.

A lovely campus that's in a quaint, small town, but also close to a large city for whenever you need to get out of the bubble. The professors and fellow students are wonderful. The academic rigor can get to be too much for some, but the professors and deans really care about you and are willing to work with you if you are struggling.

Categories Comments Campus Safety
There was an article published a little while ago about someone having $9 stolen out of their car and people were revolted. You should be fine. It's a very sheltered environment, but the cops can kind of be a pain. But I've hand friends just walk around in the middle of the night and nothing ever happens to them. Nothing really ever happens to anyone in Swarthmore.
Greek Life
It seems to be pretty nonexistent, even though I'm pretty sure they have one (kind of). You'll definitely encounter a lot of drunk bros, though (like I said, streakers).
Clubs and Activities
People seem to really enjoy sports (play quidditch, I'm serious), and there seem to be a large variety of clubs on campus. I'm sure you'll find your niche somewhere, and if you can't, people are open-minded enough you can probably start something.
Great for these types of students
Hippies for sure. You have to be a geek about something, or like really passionate. It can be a multiple of things, but you have to be able to really geek out about something. Students are generally nerdy and liberal. Also artsy, and sometimes painfully existential.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Go to the trestle (ask someone about it, it's really cool). Again the giant hammock & chair, and the amphitheater. There are also a lot of weird statues around, climbing them is kinda fun/kinda dangerous. I've encountered a lot of streakers, and you probably will too. No one in Swarthmore really cares about much.
Bang for the buck
It's really expensive, but you'll probably get a really good education and financial aid if you need it. Swarthmore is also kind of an expensive neighborhood (not all of it), so a lot of people there will have money, and there will be random expensive crap.
What to do for fun
Go to the giant hammock, the more the merrier. Also, the giant chair, at least once, even if you think it's cheesy. Join a random game of quidditch (the team is super cool and accepting). Walk down to the falls to do homework, totally beautiful and worth it. There's usually lots of stuff happening on campus, just walk around. There's a good bit to do in Swarthmore, but there's even more if you walk or take the bus into Springfield (mall, shopping center, just explore baltimore pike). There are also swings on campus!
Food and Dining
I hear students complain about food a lot. Mostly about their meal plans and having to skip meals. There are some cool places right next to campus (Dunkin' Donuts & Baskin Robin's, coffee/sandwich shop, Chinese, Mediterranean, pizza place, and a few other shops, there's also a small grocery store [kinda expensive] that should have the basic stuff you need), but they get kind of expensive and if you don't have the money you're stuck with on-campus dining, which I'd imagine is pretty decent but people aren't quick to praise it.
Dorm Life
The dorms aren't that great. I guess it depends where you stay. They look really pretty from the outside, but inside they're just okay. The walls can be kind of thin, so just don't go around shouting. People really seem to make homes out of them though, and from what I can tell you'll enjoy the people you live with.
Academic Rigor
Swarthmore is no doubt academically challenging, but I hear the professors are pretty cool (depending), so make sure you go to them for help. There's a lot of work, and the school can get kind of competitive amongst students, so just stay on top of things and know who's cool.
Tips for prospective students
Be open to new things. SEPTA will be your frienemy, take the train into Philadelphia and explore the whole city (I recommend getting a day pass and a map and just seeing all the sights). Go to the Amphitheater when it's full, and alone or with just a few friends. Take advantage of all the free opportunities around town. Get a ridiculous amount of candy from the Head Nut when you're having a bad day, or fries from Renato's. Be friendly to everyone, because everyone is friendly (given, some of them might actually be evil, watch out for that). Also, visit!!! The people I've talked to said that their visit was what made them choose Swarthmore.
In three sentences
Swarthmore is challenging, beautiful, and has a very suburban liberal feel. The students are really all individuals, and it seems like you could find any type of person on campus. I feel like as long as you're dedicated and passionate about something, you'll fit right in.

If you had your way, you'd spend morning, noon and night hidden safely inside your man cave, surrounded by your extensive MLB memorabilia collection and watching everything there is to watch about baseball. Unfortunately, there's this little thing called a "job" you have to go to — unless you want to kiss your man cave good-bye. At least you can add a little piece of Major League Baseball fandom to your lackluster workspace with this 22" x 34" poster! This ready-to-hang poster displays each MLB teams' logo printed against a bold red and blue background. White collar or blue collar — it doesn't matter. Baseball fandom is universal!
- Great gift idea
- Made in the USA
- Officially licensed MLB product
- Ready to hang
- Team colors and logo

Sam Bell is in the third year of a PhD program in geology at Brown University. Geology as in rocks. But Bell also moonlights as the the state coordinator of The Rhode Island Progressive Democrats, the state affiliate of the 10-year-old Progressive Democrats of America. And in his work with The Rhode Island Progressive Democrats, Bell was instrumental to the investigation that ultimately led to the National Rifle Association paying the second largest campaign finance fine in the state's history.

Benton, Ill. Greenwich Village, N.Y. Prattville, Ala. Statesville, N.C. Houston, Tex. Beech Island, S.C. Saginaw, Mich. Phoenix, Ariz. North Philadelphia, Pa. Rochester, N.Y. West Palm Beach, Fla. New Haven, Conn. Banning, Calif. Albuquerque, N.M.
These are some of the cities where gun violence took place from Friday to Sunday. This weekend's shootings, which spanned the country, show that it is not accurate to describe gun violence as an urban problem, or a small-town problem, or a problem related to poverty. It is an American problem. And although some states, like Maryland and Connecticut, have passed tough gun laws, it will ultimately require a national consensus and a national response.
You read a report like today's blood-soaked Gun Report and you wonder why it is so hard to get there. The enormous toll guns are taking on society is right before our eyes.
—Joe Nocera
Mark Carson, 32, was confronted by a man screaming antigay slurs who then stalked him before pulling out a silver revolver and fatally shooting him in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, N.Y., late Friday night. A 13-year-old accidentally shot an 11-year-old in the stomach with a .22 revolver Friday afternoon in Bossier City, La. Andrea Rebello, a student at Hofstra University, was accidentally shot by police after a masked man entered her off-campus home on Long Island, N.Y., early Friday. Brandon Brown, 26, and Shanae Q. Howard, 24, were found shot to death near a bench in front of a playground in Montclair, N.J., Thursday night. Kevin P. Ratcliffe, 53, was found shot and killed less than a mile from Neuqua Valley High School in south Naperville, Ill., Friday afternoon.

The Yarra Valley is easy to get to but impossible to leave thanks to its tantalising food and wine, secluded boutique accommodation, artisans and galleries, and stunning scenery.
Less than an hour's drive from Melbourne, the Yarra Valley's vine strung hills and rolling farmland are home to Victoria's earliest vineyards. Countless welcoming wineries, farmers markets, and boutique accommodation are set in picture-perfect vineyard or hilltop locations.
A sunrise hot air balloon ride over the Yarra Valley takes in the Healesville and Yarra Glen vineyards and the green valleys and pristine rivers around Marysville and Warburton. Back on earth numerous cellar doors beckon for laid back tastings and meals in their acclaimed restaurants, where fresh local produce and regional wines are on show.
There's also the opportunity to get up close to Australian wildlife at Healesville Sanctuary, home to dingoes, kangaroos, wombats and the elusive platypus.
Neighbouring Dandenong Ranges is a verdant realm of fern glades, towering trees and eclectic and artistic villages. Climb aboard Puffing Billy, Australia's much-loved historic steam train, for an alternative perspective of secluded bed and breakfast cottages, sun-kissed gardens and vast national parks.

Morning Summit Crew ~
I've been using Ryan's November letter to Santa as a guide to gather some treats for both shifts. Before I get carried away and get items that you may not enjoy, I thought I'd reach out via the forum to see if there is anything either shift would like.
So far I have candy/gum, office supplies and of course some toys for you to play with. Can I get some feedback on what you're looking for with the foam sporting equipment.
I'm planning on bringing everything up at the end of June (which is just round the corner). It's cheaper than mailing it since it's already a bit heavy. I haven't even added candles yet. PM works if you don't want to use the forum. Hope someone will help me carry everything in when I get there
Thanks for all your hard work.

Comments: I love these shoes! Very lightweight and comfy. These are by far the most comfortable shoes I own. True to size. I am wearing them right now while writing this review. The only thing I don't like about these shoes would be small rocks can get stuck on the bottom of the shoe, easy to remove though. You can't go wrong with this pair! From: Soleil, Redwood, City, CA, USA
Comments: I love the fit and flexibility of this shoe. I wear them for sprints or running distances up to 6 miles. Only drawback is that they aren't vented very well. They are hot and do cause blisters because of the heat inside the shoe. I will not use them running in the summer, they will have to be a gym shoe until the weather cools. From: Dawn, Fergus Falls, MN USA
Please include any relevant information such as weekly mileage, training or race pace, or foot type.

Learning about Chinese Medicine can be incredibly rewarding with the right books, and completely frustrating with the wrong books. Some Chinese Medicine books are poorly written, poorly translated, and others are just poorly interpreted from the source text. For students, there may be no way around required TCM textbooks, but cross-referencing books is a great way to balance your knowledge.

Hi folks:
My friend is bugging me that he wants to climb Mount Washington again this year, but this time, he would like to see the leaves change. Could someone please tell me what the approximate latest is we can climb that mountain without there being any snow at all? Wet rocks get me nervous ;-)
Thanks, Chris

The Dressed watch is a 35mm stainless steel case with an integrated mesh strap. Much like time itself can be shared or private, this watch has two sides; it's simple, outward face is shared with the world, yet conceals a secret underside of decorative beauty, known only to the wearer. Within all, the watch is more than just a mechanism to track time, it is the final touch in being dressed for the occasion.
Marcel Wanders grew up in Boxtel, the Netherlands, and graduated cum laude from the School of the Arts Arnhem in 1988. Marcel Wanders' fame started with his iconic Knotted Chair, which he produced for Droog Design in 1996. He is now ubiquitous, designing for the biggest European contemporary design manufacturers like B&B Italia, Bisazza, Poliform, Moroso, Flos, Boffi, Cappellini, Droog Design and Moooi of which he is also art director and co-owner. Founded in 2000, Moooi has grown into an internationally renowned design label. Additionally, Marcel Wanders works on architectural and interior design projects and recently turned his attention to consumer home appliances.
Marcel was the editor of the International Design Yearbook 2005. In the same year, together with Chef Peter Lute, he established the extraordinary LUTE SUITES hospitality-concept, the first "all over city suites" hotel in the world. He also designed the interior of Blits, a new restaurant in Rotterdam and the interior of the restaurant 'Thor' at the Hotel on Rivington in New York including bar, lounge and private club. Marcel is the first and among the most important designers of Droog design. He was a juror for various prizes like the Rotterdam Design Prize (for which his own products were nominated several times) and the Kho Liang Ie prize.
