OK, I have a question for all of you audio experts out there. I am in the process of installing an aftermarket amp & sub in my 07 civic coupe. I want to keep the vehicle as stock as possible in case I decide to trade it in a few years down the road. Because of this I have decided to keep the factory head unit. My plan as of right now is to simply unplug the factory subwoofer that is part of the "premium audio system." I will then splice into those leads and run them to the speaker level inputs(or high level inputs) of my aftermarket amp. With this setup I believe I will still be able to control the bass levels with my factory head unit. I am not to familiar with the speaker level inputs, but it sounds to good to be true! What are the advantages/disadvantages of the speaker level inputs? Is it going to be an issue that my speaker level inputs into my aftermarket amplifier are coming from the stock premium audio amp? Is this setup going to work at all? I would appreciate any feedback and/or advice that you all can provide. It is much appreciated! I am going to list the aftermarket components that I plan on installing below. Thanks!
