[QUOTE="goblues38, post: 1449089, member: 29724"] correct...it is a waste of time......the B&O system has a bass management that rolls off any low frequencies as the volume is turned up. The B&O amp is so under powered, any time you add volume, it clips the speakers. so they just take away bass as volume goes up to keep from blowing up speakers and having a ton of warranty work for blown speakers. So you could (ignore the fact that high level is bad for a moment) take the only stereo full signal which is the rear door speakers and use that to drive the input on a new sub amp. But as soon as you turn the volume up (past 10) the low frequencies start to roll off. your fancy new amp and sub will be playing very little because the factory B&O is essentially, turning the volume down on your new amp. You have to do it all, or not do it. Sorry...it is just what we are dealing with on the B&O system. [/QUOTE]
