[QUOTE="Mattice, post: 8372964, member: 665544"] I have a 2007 Honda Civic SI which has a factory radio wired to a factory amplifier powering an 8" factory subwoofer along with the 4 other door speakers and 2 tweeters. I have a 1700 watt rms Hifonics Brutus Class D monoblock amp along with 2 12" Kicker subwoofers powered at 800 watt rms each. I want to transfer these subs and amps to my new car, although I do not want to buy a new radio and harness at the moment. By using a LOC(Line out converter) I could wire RCA plugs from my rear speakers into the new amp for my subs. I have no idea on the specs on my factory radio, I can't find them online. However, since it already has a factory amp running the stock sub, if I use the LOC to power my new amp and subs without buying a new radio and wiring directly through it, would I have any problems? Could I blow my factory radio running this much power on top of the factory amplifier? Thanks in advance for advice. [/QUOTE]
