Hey guys dont know of a way to run two 10' subs with the factory head unit im not sure if it can be done and if so what all will i need to do or will i have to change the head unit with an after market one..i have the Sirius Satellite radio so what would i do about that too??

 

ive been told it can be done, not sure how, but i went to an audio specialist and they told me it was no problem!

 

I think you can do it, because Dodge offers a subwoofer as an option...and that comes with the stock headunit. So, it must be possible.

 

all amplifiers have a high level input. and you will need an amp to run subs don't even try it off the factory head unit. high level inputs basically mean you run regular speaker wire to it as teh inputs. basically splice into the the speakers for the rear or front w/e is easier and use those to go to the amp as an input. same concept as using RCA's with an aftermarket h/u but RCA's are known as low level inputs.

but word of warning don't expect a whole lot out of a factory head unit. they pretty much suck compared to even the cheapest of aftermarket stuff

 

ok so what would i do about the SAT. radio that comes with the factory one will i be able to still have it with an after market one or will i lose that option?

 

the factory sat to my knowledge is not going to work(at least it didnt for me i got the pioneer n2 might work with something different)i tried and ended up buying anew antenna for it. as for the subs you are going to want an amp for that.

 

yeah im going to need an amp for the subs cuz the one i have now cuts out if i play them to loud ..that kinda sucks that i cant keep the SAT. with a new head unit

 

I believe with the correct adapter you can use the factory antenna with an aftermarket HU, you just need the tuner box for your head unit. Give crutchfield a call, they would know. Personally I think you'd be a lot happier with a decent aftermarket HU than just using high-level inputs.

 

AHHH!!!! well it doesnt matter anymore cuz last nite i had both JBL subs stolen out of my truck ..the window was busted out and they got those and the amp i had them hooked up to ...i hate ppl that cant work like the rest of use that who have a job and save and look forward haveing nice stuff ....they tried to get my aftermarket HU but when they treid it was to much work ..and i woke up to this at about 5:30 this morning and my Grandmother said the truck was fine at 10 when she came home and she didnt go to bed until 1 this morning and she said she didnt hear a thing so it was sometime during that period that they got it all ..oh yea an they got my Ipod which ticks me off just a bit cuz that was given to me for Graduation..Thanks for all the input on the audio stuff ..im just wondering if i should put new subs in the dak or no just to leave it alone ...??
