Yes, entirely.

Yes, exactly, this is the purpose of doing this.

BMW speaker wiring is good quality and we frequently use it without any replacement.

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?
If that's all you're doing for now, yes, absolutely. Use a Soundgate LOCHVA. Don't need an LC6 for this.

OK, when you do that, IMO you really should replace the DSP amp too. As my other article/post describes,. the DSP amp is a poor match for ANY aftermarket speakers.

When you do that, you will end up eliminating the DSP amp and rewiring your sub amp for a different source for signal anyway.

Hope that helps.
