To those who are using the 3sixty.
The line-level inputs and rca inputs are electrically identical.
I was having problems with the black, plug-in, screw-type connector not making a good connection causing a recurring alternator buzz. I use these connectors on a couple different pieces of equipment at my job and they are notorious for vibrating out. I took the unit out of the case and re-flowed the solder points of the male portion of the connector and I found that the traces go directly to the rca jacks. They read 0 ohms with a meter between the two as well.
I then cut up an old set of streetwires rca cables and soldered directly to my head unit out. I think the 3sixty does some internal magic, not just a step down, for line level in. Works great, very solid connection compared to what it was, and my levels remained the same.
