You'll still need an amp to power the subwoofer. So you're making 2 extra cold-connections this way. It will work, if you are set on the Lc2i. However, the Sony amp already crosses over the low frequencies to the subwoofer output wires, so you'll be "piggyback"-ing 2 crossovers in parallel this way. Also, the sub amp will need to be a "clean channel" (no crossover) design so that you don't introduce yet a third crossover in the chain.I'd highly recommend the JBL MS-A5001 instead. It will do everything (and more) that the Lc2i does, Plus give you the power to drive the sub, all in one box. You'd take the Sony sub-out (4 wires), terminate them to (L&R) RCA plugs, and you're done. The MS-A5001 will sum that signal, clean it, crossover it, and amplify it. It will install neatly under the rear passanger side seat, right next to the sub, with easy access (as that seat folds up). The subwoofer wires are already there, just take them off the factory sub, terminate them to RCAs, and plug them into the JBL.I have their color coding somewhere in the garage, if you need it, just give me a buzz...Just get RCA plugs that are solderless, (and connect with screws) and you're done in seconds.</blockquote>
