I have asked already on both the F-Body (firebird) page and the Grand Am pages. No help there just useless opinions.

For those that are in the world of knowledge when it comes to the Monsoon Amplifiers.
I am installing a Monsoon Amp into a car (Fiero) with an aftermarket Head Unit.
I have the wiring diagram for the amplifier.
I have two questions;
1- Purple Wire to the Amp says "Gain Control Signal", do I need that? and if so what do I hook that to on the new Head Unit?
2- Dark Green Wire to the Amp says "Amp Control", do I need that? and if so what do I hook that to on the new Head Unit? I would assume that this is the Power Activate from the head unit?

the amp came from an 04 Grand Am GT.

Thanks for your assistance.

I pretty much have no idea whats going on, but I am going to fake it.

I may have figured out my own issue.
Dark Green Wire is connected to the remote power on.
The Gain Control can be connected to the factory performance sound gain control for the factory sub.
