Your intent i sa good one. Unfortunately you have the wrong system to do it with. There is a lot written in the archives, so I won't go into it again here for the sake of time, but the condensed version is that the DSP system preamp level analog signal is fixed level. It does not increase or decrease with the volume control. It only has analog signal for radio, cassette, and NAV. The CD SPDIF digital signal feeds directly to the DSP amp. All the volume, tone , etc is done in the DSP/amp module. Your only option, short of an internal connection inside the DSP/amp chassis (or ditching the DSP and converting to the standard setup), is to run your subwoofer from the subwoofer speaker outputs.
See JimL's site (check the archives and do a search for DSP & JimL) for a more thorough outline.

Best regards,
Bob Hazelwood

: Concerend about amp a amp signal, more distrotion. Also what wires did you use, connect to.

: thanks
