Does what it says it does and for me it eliminated the POP sound. would recommend Ive heard the POP before and it sounds awful, this easily solves that problem, the instructions were very clear and easy to understand.

I used this to retain my factory Ford subwoofers with my radio install in my 2007 Mustang GT with a shaker 500 system. It's supposed to take the 12v amp trigger from the radio down to the 5v that the factory radio used for the amp trigger to reduce the chance for a popping noise.

Needed to retain OEM amp/sub functionality.
Crutchfield customer from Grand Rapids, MI on 9/9/2020
2004 Ford Mustang
This is the answer that matters to adapt many aftermarket units to work with Ford OEM amps and subwoofers. On a technical level, the output voltage to trigger the amps and subs to turn on needs to be modified to prevent popping and crackling issues. This works exactly as described.
Pros: works

No Thump when turning on!
Trent from Nappanee, IN on 4/26/2019
2007 Ford Focus ZX4
Works great! I was a little confused at the wiring of the smaller amp plug with the step down converter because the connector had 2 blue with white stripe wires in it. The 24 pin connector has 1 blue with white stripe wire in it as well. After a call to crutchfield they told me to connect both the blue and white wires of the smaller connector to the blue with red stripe wire of the step down converter and then connect the blue with white strip of the step down converter, the blue with white stripe of the 24 pin connector and the blue with white stripe amp turn on wire from the stereo together. Following those instructions everything works and there is no thump when I turn the radio on. I just bought this car and there was an aftermarket stereo in it already. It did not have one of these step down converters and it did thump whenever you turned the car on so I know this thing is doing something and would highly recommend this accessory for this setup.

Simply can't believe how easy it was to install. This was 1 of 4 products I recently purchased for my install. I've put in a few stereos myself, but it's been a while. Get online, tell them what I have (vehicle, stock audio receiver, etc.), tell them the new audio receiver I'm getting, then, they work their magic and I get a list of everything I need to put it in. This particular item does exactly what it's supposed to and I received detailed instructions to make it just that easy. If I had never put in a stereo, I still think this would have been a no brainer. Thank you Crutchfield.

Works great and did the trick; no pop/thud when the stereo turns on. I will say, though, that the guide from Crutchfield could have been just a little bit more clear on the wire hook-ups. A quick look on youtube confirmed that how I was interpreting their directions was correct, though. Installed in a 2004 F-150.
Pros: No popping when turning on the stereo.
Cons: Directions get you 75% of the way there... then you have to guess or look up how others did it (may depend on vehicle make/model, too). Or call the support line to confirm it, I installed on a weekend, so had to rely on youtube.

I purchased this because it was recommended, to keep a start up thump out of the speakers. I ordered and installed, I've not heard any thumps or pops from the amps. It must be doing it's job.

Was easy to wire. Just follow instructions. I previous had an aftermarket radio and did not have this converter. So every time I cranked my music up my amps would pop and stop working until I turned down the volume. I got a new radio and this converter and I no longer have that problem.

Mostly eliminated pop
Mark from Ft Wayne, IN on 10/12/2017
2015 Ford Mustang
Bought a new jvc head unit and the ready harness service. Converter wasn't installed when I first received the harness, but I called tech and they sent out a new harness with the converter installed. While I waited I had the new radio installed and got the loud pop on startup. Once I installed the new harness with converter, it eliminated the initial turn on pop completely, But if I have the radio on in acc mode and Then start the car, it still pops right when the radio shuts off basically unless u turn the volume off first. Why is this???
Pros: Eliminated initial turn on pop
Cons: Still pops if radio is already on when starting car, not As loud, but still does it

Jim from Fayetteville, NC on 9/12/2017

Perfect part of the install kit for the OEM amp use via the new head unit in a 2001 Mustang GT with the Mach 1 stereo system. It was provided by Crutchfield and later I found out it is a must have to eliminate the "popping" sound through the system speakers when the head unit is first powered up.
Pros: Easy install and was free as part of installation gear package deal.
Cons: none

This was supposed to eliminate the POP in the subwoofers, when you turn on the radio by dropping the 12 volt signal, down to the 5 volts needed. I wired according to the schematic, but I still hear a POP (not that loud) when the radio first comes on. Radio works fine otherwise, and the POP isn't a big deal to me. According to the wiring directions it appears to be a parallel connection, which is how I wired it. Maybe I didn't wire it correctly, so I gave it the benefit of doubt and 3 stars.

Andy from St. Albans, VT on 1/26/2017
This product is very easy to install, but it didn't entirely eliminate that "thump" when my car is turned on. I double checked the installation instructions and still it thumps. Doesn't take away sound quality, just an annoyance.
Pros: Easy install
Cons: Doesn't entirely eliminate "thump"

It is great for what it is a amp saver if you have a factory amp I would suggest this product, but it don't come with instructions to wire it up so I had to call customer service Cody was very helpful and in two minutes I had it wired into the harness.
Pros: Does exactly what it claims
Cons: No wiring instructions.

Protect Your OEM Speakers!
Charles from Akron, OH on 11/9/2016

Reduces the 12-volt DC to the 5-volts required by speakers don't absorb the full thrust. In a manner of speaking, it's a safety device for stock 35 -55 watt speakers. The Axxess AFD-5V should be used in any good quality install.
Pros: Reduces or eliminates excess voltage to speakers.
Cons: None

This did exactly what it was intended to do, keep my factory amp/sub from the dreaded pop when powering on. The only problem I faced was that the wire coming from my new head unit was solid blue instead of blue with white stripe as stated in the instructions. My particular head unit apparently had the color coding backwards where the power antenna lead was blue with white stripe and the amp lead was solid blue. I guess most head unit wiring is color coded the opposite way. Other than that it did what it was supposed to do.

Still a little "pop" noise every now and then.
NICHOLAS from Boston, MA on 4/21/2016

It works, but not entirely. There is still a "pop" or "thump" noise every now and then. The wiring is all soldered correctly. I didn't want to cut and wire/solder so I am just dealing with it. It happens randomly mainly, when I shut off the car.
Pros: Prevents the "pop"/"thump" noise on almost every command change.
Cons: Still has "pop"/"thump" noise mostly when the car is turned off.
