seduced Need more power. Now taking donations. Member 753 Member For: 15y 8m 29d Gender: Male Posted 15/09/10 11:10 PM Share Posted 15/09/10 11:10 PM If the factory amp is unplugged, the full signal is sent to the speakers. Otherwise, you could just run your new amp off the factory one, you wont blow anything up. Plug it in and see if you like it.I'll have to dig out he BA manual on CD I have somewhere. The wiring diagram was from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spliced one RCA lead directly into the wires that power the sub, and plugged it straight into the amp. works perfectly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havent done mine yet. Got all the bits but that was how I was told to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORRRR have you spliced the RCA prior to entering the factory amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u still wat SQ with the ICC , RF 360.2 ? (around 700)will do what you wantif u only want good sound for 20 bucksdo m RCA for ICC guide its sounds alot better than any 20 Hi-Low convertorloading an amp up with the amped premo signal is not a wise idea, u will be overdriving the input which will clip the waveform causing unwanted distortion even at low VOL levels Edited 29/12/10 11:09 AM by quadie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markdc Member 9 Member For: 15y 6m 29d Posted 03/01/11 04:26 AM Share Posted 03/01/11 04:26 AM the high level input to the premo amp is LOW PASS (ONLY BASS)in the premo system if the CAN bus see's the amp the ICCENABLES filters on all outputstherefore.Yes you can use the High level input but it will need PRE-AMP before u feed a MonoblockIF you tap of the Rears(Or fronts)u must disconnect the Premo amp to allw full range to the rear channels.so your saying if you plug in the Factory amp then the ICC sensors this and enables a high pass filter to the 4 in car speakers, because it thinks that you are running your sub for bass therefore the fronts and rears dont need the bass frequencies.im not to keen on spliting the fronts or rears in order to run a signal to my aftermarket sub im looking to install, so if I wanted to utelize the yellow/black LOW PASS signal that would normally be fed into the factory amp would I require a pre-amp device such as a lc6i, mtx re-q?
