Changing factory amp?

[JonnyQball79]

Hi,

I'm sorry if this has been asked so many times before. I have a 01 EB wit a factory amp and sub that is weak. I am wondering if it is easy to just swap out the amp with my MTX 1500 dx? or does it have to be rewired?

Swapping out just the amp won't help the sound, it will actually probably make it worse since the stock sub isn't made to handle more power then what the stock amp delivers.
You should swap out the amp and the sub.. there are lots of places that sell replacement subs that will fit right into the factory spot. I would start with ebay

I agree you will need to swap both the amp and the sub, if you are going to use an aftermarket amplifier that is rated more than 150W you will need to run larger power wire to support the larger current draw
