I was looking at new head units in Best Buy and the sales guy told me that the X has a propriatary amp built in that they have to bypass because it only works with the factory head unit.
Wanted to charge more money for the bypass wiring.
has anyone run it to this, or his he full of crap?
First of all, DO NOT let WorstBuy install your stuff.
Secondly, most good aftermarket HU's come with pre-amp outputs. So regardless of whether the factory HU is internally amped or not, the factory amp should still work with it ($50 for hard-wiring).
There might be an adapter available to connect to your amp. you can ask on the forums here:
http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/forum/ Unless you want to lose sound (If you have the Sub, you WILL with no amp), you will havta spend about $1000 bucks to bypass your amp and replace amp and HU.
I don't have the time, but I bet there is an adapter available somewhere.
