Yes. Unless you want to rewire your connections (not worth it IMHO). By the way the current models only work with non-DSP systems. The one being created by tv-in-motion may support DSP.

Basically if i purchase one of those head-units and the BSW Amplifier as well, will that be overkill?
No. If the head unit is connected to the factory amp then the head unit's power is not used. The head unit will only supply a signal to the amp.

Will the Hualigan units and the one from tv-in-motion.uk recognize the BSW amplifier?
Now we are getting back on topic! BSW has not shared all the specs on this amp. I believe it will work with DSP systems. I am unsure if it works with aftermarket systems. Their main motivation for creating this amp is for owners that want to keep everything stock but want a better amp than the factory one.
