I contacted him about some high-low converters since I was adding an amp to my car. I ran a few pieces by him and he gave his advice on something that would work a lot better for me.
The MTX re-Q5 (OEM Bass Restoration & Signal Processor) (pictures used for example only)

The re-Q5 restores bass audio signal quality from factory radio. This device will process compressed low frequencies and re-produce a signal that is far improved, resulting in great bass output at any volume level. It features 5-channel inputs and outputs, allowing an overall improved signal output from all channels in addition to bass restoration. The re-Q5 presents itself as the perfect solution for anyone who wants to enhance their system with aftermarket solutions while preserving the features of factory radios!
General Features:
Auxiliary input (Great now I can hook up my phone and play Pandora!)
Four channel 3-way summing
Ground Loop Isolator
Independent Gain controls
AC/DC Smart Engage to sense in any vehicle
Volume Sensing Bass Restoration
Subsonic and Low-Pass Crossovers
Remote output
Can be installed before or after stock amps
Input/Output Specifications:
Input Channels: FL, FR, RL, RR, Sub
Input Type: Differential Balanced
Input Range: 250mV - 30V
Output Channels: FL, FR, RL, RR, Sub
Output Type: Unbalanced RCA
Max Output Voltage: 2.5V RMS Full Range, 8V RMS Sub
Signal to Noise: >90dB (A-Weighted referenced to 1V out)
THD+N: <0.1% at 1V out (20Hz- 20kHz)
Miscellaneous Features:
Operating Voltage: 8V - 16V
Operating Current Draw: 150mA
Standby Current Draw: < 4mA
Recommended Fuse Value: 1A (Fast Blow)
Recommended Fuse Type: AGC
Dimensions: 7-1/8"L x 4-1/2"W x 1-1/2"H
Now I will have true dedicated Front, Rear and Sub channel outputs that I will get a 2.5v preout on the front & rear and 8v preout on the sub. Voltage on the preouts is very important to ensure a quality signal.
I talked to John about the piece last week and ordered it earlier this week and was delivered yesterday. I thought the unit would be a lot smaller but it's a littler smaller than a bible lol, I will have to mount the unit in my glove box, such a shame cause I would really love to show the unit off in my trunk but I need to tap the speaker/sub wires off the my audiophile HU. Thank you again John for your advice and service!
