Hi guys, newbie here.
I want to fit a new amp board to drive some woofers in my 2000. The plan is to bypass ic401 and put another board in its place. There is 17v from cnp403 pin 4 (circled in green) powering the amps as it is (orange) so I could intercept this at the top after the nodes (brown strike) so keeping the power feeding to ic402 which I think is powering the tweeters (is this right?). Then splice the speaker feed in to the new amp outputs (purple). The other option would be to bypass both amps and use a crossover, but it's mostly the bass drivers that I'm concerned with. Unless that is particularly easier and more efficient.
Am I in the right ball park here and have I missed something that is going to cause problems or damage? Is it even going to work?
Superduper I'm looking at you!
I've already replaced the drivers and it does sound better, but the amp is not so strong and it could do with more headroom
