does any body know how to hook up new amp without taking off factory(infinity gold)? Do i hook it up to factory amp or to player?
I have a mono amp that will be used only for subwoofer.

you get a Metra adapter harness that taps into teh factory system and gives you a set of RCA pre-outs to use for the amplifier.
That's the only good way to do it.

any car audio shop should be able to order one or have it in stock.
you could try through metra-online or partsexpress.com or similar as well.

Is that a LOC or something...
never heard of the metra.
A LOC will work most likely too.

Help2, the Jeep's premium system is similar to the Bose and Mach systems. It uses amplifiers in the stock system, so a line reducer is required to get a clean line level signal. there is a harness sold that splits off the factory amp harness to provide the proper RCA line outs for adding an amplifier and subs to the factory system.
