pre amp
Searched and couldn't find a clear answer to this - probably because it's common knowledge
![]() I installed a JL M2250 powering my two tower speakers last year - followed the installation instrutions specifically and everything works beautifully. I now want to add a JL M1700 and a JL subwoofer. Question - since I already have an amp driving my tower speakers, what do the pre-amp jacks do for me when adding another amp? I am sure I could install the sub amp just like the other and it would be fine..... Also I want to mount the subwoofer in the stock X-2 location behind the drivers seat. Does the factory use any additional bracing for this, or is it held by the gel/glass only? Thanks in advance

the 2250 has a pre-amp pass-through so you just "daisy chain" the two amps together. no y-cables, no splitters, etc. piece of cake.
not sure about backing for the sub. someone else will chime in soon. good luck with the upgrade!

Thanks Brucemac
I am assuming I still have to power the sub amp from the battery - or does the pre-out take care of this too?

be sure to read the manual for proper gauge wire to use for power and ground. remote wire is typically 16 gauge.

Put in a distribution block for the power, and one for the ground instead of running everything to the battery.
