Does these amps exist?

[Fart]

I am looking to upgrade the sound in my truck. I don't want it to "look" upgraded. If a thief looks in my truck, I want him to see my old factory stereo with the missing knobs. But I want it to sound great.

Long story short, I need a small 4 channel amp with speaker level inputs to connect to my factory stereo. I want it to turn on automatically when it detects a signal, with no remote turn on wire. I'd like it to have a high pass filter, so it sounds good on the 4 speakers. And I'd like it to have an output (either full range or low pass) to connect an additional amp for a sub woofer.

The sub woofer amp would also need to turn on when it detected a signal, with no remote turn on wire. It would need a low pass filter, and power either 1 12" woofer, or (more likely) 1 10" woofer.

Or if there is a single amp that can do 4 channels for highs and mids plus another channel for a sub, with speaker level inputs and no need for a remote turn on wire, then I guess that would work too.

I don't need anything earth shattering. I just want it to sound decent and be totally hidden.

Does anyone know of an amp that would work for this setup?

I'd start with something like this... Axxess AX-MLOC745 (axmloc745) 4 Channel Mini 150 Watt LOC With

LOC to RCA outputs and has signal sensing to +12v output, so you could run any amp you want.

Like stated above a line out converter with a remote out would help you by at least giving you more options for amp(s).audiocontrol lc2 or something similiar

Thank you to everyone who gave me valuable information in this thread. I ended up buying one of those Axcess LOCs that was posted in this thread. I had no idea they made those with auto sensors and remote wires. I found a cheap 5 channel amp too. I will hopefully be busy installing everything next weekend.

Is there a wire harness or adapter plug or something I can get that plugs info the back of the factory stereo that will let me connect the LOC? Something like a "T" tap, or maybe a "Y" tap I guess, so I can connect the LOC to the speaker outputs from the stereo, and then connect the amp's speaker outputs to the factory speaker wires.

I could cut the wires and do this, but I'm trying to avoid that. If I can just plug in a harness and have wires to connect without cutting anything that would be perfect.
