So, you're using the receiver's pre-outs then? I assumed that you didn't want to use the factory amp, my mistake.
I don't know how good the factory amp is, but I think I'd rather use the head unit's built-in amp or an aftermarket amp instead. |

So, if my new reciever is putting out 54X4 watts, then i should still use that stock amp. Especially if there is a aftermarket harness to get everything you can out of the amp. -------------------- The most important lesson I learned from Karate-Dō Kyōshan – “You can not be what you do not believe you are” |

[right][snapback]287058[/snapback][/right] I'm not following you. The harness you have allows you to use the factory amp as your amplifcation for the speakers, therefore you're not using the new receiver's amp to power anything. |

[right][snapback]287197[/snapback][/right] In your first quote, you said i will be amplifying the signal twice. Well, hows that any different from the stock reciever? The stock reciever was putting out 50x4 in the first place, and then the amp aplified it to whatever. So, it'll be the same setup, just a different head unit. -------------------- The most important lesson I learned from Karate-Dō Kyōshan – “You can not be what you do not believe you are” |
