Would I be able to run rear speakers and the bass shakers off the MY01 OEM headunit without an amp?

 

Not easily. You need to keep a nominal 4 ohm impedance on each channel. You would need to run two sets of each in a series/parallel combination.

 

what does that mean in layman's term?

 

You cant do that because the Auras need 25wrms and the HU only gives about 10 per channel.

 

One is irrelevant to the other...

25W is the max, but they work just fine with less. That's like saying a 100W speaker won't work unless you hook it to a 100W amplifier and always turn it up to the max volume.

"But it goes to 11..."

 

25 watts RMS is the maximum for the standard model. The Pro model is rated to handle 50 watts RMS.

 

Oh....well I was misinformed. I thought the were an on/off kinda thing.

You learn something new everyday. Thanks!

Can you describe how this can be done? Would you tap into the rear speaker wires both + and - separately or connect the it on one wire either + or -?
