Default modding nakamichi stereo

is there a way to have the sub hooked up to a larger amp? while keeping the factory head unit and amp powering the speakers, such as plugging in the nakamichi amp into the larger amp which would power the sub?

line-level converter from the old sub out from the stock amp, then into the pre-amp inputs on your new amp.

there is sub outs on the amp? i thought there was two amps, one for the sub and one for the speakers? I just wanted to put in a loud 8 inch competition but the oem amp is not nearly powerful enough.

No, he means take the wires going to the stock sub, put them through a line-level converter and into the new amp. I had a cheap one that burnt before I bought a Scosche from Crutchfield.
