Should i uninstall the bass blockers

[gijoe 10+ year member]

Just like the title says, I have bass blockers on my rear door speakers and I'm wondering if I should take them off. I just got a Pioneer 880prs, so I'm wondering if I should take the blockers off and just use the head unit to set my filters. Would there be an advantage either way? I've got a BA 12 GT2 powered by an alpine m350, so I've got the bass there. I'm shopping for an amp to power my speakers, probably a 4 channel, to power my BA S60's and my rear speakers (also BA I think FX5). So should I take them off? Also, how can I safely clean the woofers without damaging them? Thanks Joe

if your hu has filters for its built in amp then why even use bassblockers in the first place?

There were installed when I upgraded my speakers but still had the factory HU. I forgot they were there until about an hour ago when I pulled off my door panels to source some rattles. I take it from your response that I should get rid of them?
