B&O add aftermarket sub

[Wayne Twombly]

So if my head unit feeds the tweets. That means they are not connected to the b&o amp. Doesnt that mean once that amp is gone , the tweeters will still work ?

No because communication to the b&o amp is can-bus/ a2b. It’s a digital signal vs analog. Like I said above, once you remove the amp, the ipc thinks there is nothing connected so it mutes all sounds and reverts them to the dash speaker. I assure you, there isn’t a way around this. Plain and simple.

I do have to ask; why? I hope you aren’t trying to avoid running new wires to the tweeters. That’s not the right way to do this.

I'm trying to avoid adding another piece of equipment. I've ran them From my front door speakers . Works fine. I dont know why people on forums try to push all the expensive stuff.
I actually turned off the fake engine noise and I'm using 3 lc2i links. After the b&o amp. Works ok to me.

I must say you are the only guy on this page that has any idea. That must mean this is t that popular ? Or not many people have the balls to RIP into a 70k truck. ? Either way , have a great holiday and I'm gonna delete my profile .

Ok, well use an lc2i on the sub harness and be done with it. If you are happy, that’s all that matters.

I used lc2i on all channels. Total of 3 After factory amp. Turned off fake engine noise. And ran tweets from front doors. Why do people make it seem so complicated ? The lc2 will handle about 400w per channel coming in. Then split off to the amps. Dial in desired sound. And done. No need for an 850$ product. Maybe when that type of product has more than one option I'll change stuff up again.

Essentially, I'm just boosting the factory power . Doesnt seem to have any ill effect

That’s awesome!
