What else do I need for this system?

Hey guys,

New to this site. Thanks for having me.

I have a question regarding my new set up. This is going in a 2014 F350 crew cab with the so called premium Sony sound system.

I have 2 Sundown Audio SD-3 10's that are going into a sealed 1m3 box behind the rear seat. These will be powered @ 1 ohm on a Hifonics Brutus BXI2010D. I will be leaving the head unit and speakers stock. Now this is where it gets interesting for me. I have an Audiocontrol Epicenter Plus that I ran in my old system.

The factory speakers and sub are amplified. So I will be grabbing my high level inputs from downstream of that amplifier.

Should I grab the speaker level inputs or the subwoofer level inputs to go the Epicenter?

Or do I require a summing unit such as the Audiocontrol LC6i? What kind of improvements would I gain with a summing unit?

Thanks!

Alright, got my answer.

Because I'm only running a sub amp, I don't require a summing unit.

And the factory Sony amplifier powers all speakers and subs in my truck so I can just steal a high level input from my factory sub amp.
