Bypass factory amp to get better sound?
I'm sure as everyone knows that when you put a replacement deck in your monte that the sound quality is very low... I was reading somewhere about bypassing the factory amp to get the full sound from the factory speakers... I can't find this post/thread though anywhere. I've searched the web as well, but not knowing "what" I'm looking for it's been hard to find!
I have a 2005 MC LT it doesn't have Bose sound, it's actually a Panasonic amp in the back.

so no amp at all, just the deck to the speakers like in a normal car lol.

Can you explain this a bit more? I'm having the same issue with my new rear speakers. Are you talking about where the wires come off the amp...splice that wire onto the new speaker? So say for the rear left -- the wires are red and white. Would I snip the red and white coming off the harness from the amp and attach it to the speaker directly?

Ok, on the harness that connects to the amp, for each speaker there's a + and - wire for the input (coming from headunit), and a + and - for the output (going to speakers). Connect the input + to the output + and the input - to the output - for every speaker. Leave the harness unhooked from the amp. You have just bypassed the factory amp.
You don't even have to cut any wires if you don't want to. Just use a short piece of wire to jump the pins on the harness.
