el duderino - ok. so, according to ur write-up, does this procedure eliminate the DSP Amp? and so by eliminating the DSP Amp, one would then need to use after-market amps all around? if this is the case, would one be able to use the factory speaker wiring to accomplish this or would one need to run new wires to each speaker? i'm still a little confused.

basically, what i am hoping to accomplish in the future (in order of preference) is :

1. add a little more bass. the dlp sub just doesn't cut it, esp. coming out of something w/ 4 - 8" JL Audio's. would it be easier to just tap into the current sub wiring for this?

2. eventually replace the stock mids and highs.
