[QUOTE="dbertoli, post: 8070536, member: 653544"] So you may have read my other post and seen my first problem. I installed an aftermarket Hu in my Sebring which has a stock infinity amp. The level is a lot higher than the stock Hu so the volume gets louder quicker. I was expecting that which is why I installed a hu which has the ability to send just a preamp signal. However this infinity amp seems to work differently and needs a higher input.. Blah I hope that makes sense. Anyways my question and thought is this. Can I put resistors in line with my speakers to require more power be sent to achieve a higher volume? To the point where my subs will be getting a decent signal? I don't want to use a loc, I have one I paid 40 for and I am not a fan. Or are there any other ways I can do this? I have a feeling I'm eventually going to buy a bypass for the stock amp and just go off hu power. But from what I remember the quality is low. Any thoughts are much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
