When i bought my car the amo had already been removed. I know nothing about audio. The car has Infinity Kappa speakers and a pioneer head unit. Will there be any difference if I buy and put the stock amp back in? Also is it worth it to get the stock amp? if i buy an aftermarket amp would it be a direct plug and play? Thanks
 
A lot of people take the stock amp out and junk them. I use my stock amp as a crossover. I think in your position, it would be better not not even bother. Just pick up an aftermarket amp and hook it up via rca and to the speakers.
 
stock amp would be useless to you, it connects via a proprietary connector, rather than the RCA that your head unit(and any other aftermarket head unit, for that matter) will output.

Very important info that im glad i now know! thank you
 
but, judging from your post in the other thread, if you're putting in an OEM head unit from a Galant, the head unit will have that connector on it to be able to use the stock amp, and WOULD require a adapter or converter in order to use the OEM head unit with any OTHER amp that isn't the OEM one.
