Amp ???

[ca18guy]

Allright guys can I hook up a amp to the stock radio? How would I do this with out monster cables? Or is there away to convert the speaker wires in to monster cable. Please tell if it's possible if not i'll break down and buy another aftermarket CD player, might be time to upgrade the old one anyway. (mine now is in the states)

Befor I got my deck, I had an amp and subs running off of the stock radio.  I had the work done by a sound shop, cuz I knew it would be tricky.  But it can be done.  At least on a 95.  Not sure if the wiring is defferent  on S13's or whatever you have. Good luck.

You need a switch that takes in your deck's speaker outputs (high voltage) and  turns it into pre-amp's (low voltage) or better known as RCA outs. You should be able to buy it in a car stereo shop, like Best Buy or Earmark here in the states.

Note: if you actually find a way to connect the speaker outputs directly to an amp without de-amplifying the signal, you're gonna have a nice fried amp and deck combo <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;(maybe that's why most ricers carry a fire exinguisher in B pillars of their rice-rockets.)

Don't forget that the sound isn't goign to be anywhere near as clean by doing it this way. You're going through a generation (deamplifying and amplifying again), so there will be signal loss. It would be better in the long run to just get an aftermarket head unit. You know you'll want to eventually anyway <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

its called high level inputs some amps like rockfords and the like, have them. so if u have an amp that has high level inputs all u do is connect the signal wires going to the speakers from the stock head unit to the amp and u have signal to the amp.
