Yes, you can leave the speaker connected. If your using a LOC, you will need to use the speaker output wires from the deck for any add on amplifier.

Any afermarket subwoofer will not perform properly with an OEM amplifier, just not enough juice from those things. The ohm ratings on the speakers are 4 ohms for Ford's.

velocity's right again. im surprised to hear that the fords amp pushes at four ohms. usually they lower the impedance of the speakers to get the most out of those measly amps. i cant stand premium sound systems. i always bypass the whole thing.

always looking for new info and willing to give it
