    That has nothing to do with a 2nd amp or 3rd amp or what have you.. it's just their setup and clearly that's what they are after.. distortion to some may be music to others.. lol..

    It's a free country... as I said, I'm sure it's possible to set it up so that it sounds good.

    Multi amp systems should sound great. Just with my one 300 watt rms amp, the volume and clarity is more than can handle. Added bonus is no more road noise... My wife now notices her Lexus isn't even as "quiet" because the sound dampening and speakers blocking it out.

    I am trying to do this upgrade and i have seen many people adding to the current capacitor on the blue connector or replacing it with a bass blocker i think they said its 100uF non polarized capacitor.

    In you post u said it could also go straight. Does this mean i could take the old capacitor off and just run straight to speakers??
