the front doors and under seats most of the time.
The trouble with the L7 is you have a lot of channels to fill if you want
a channel to all the existing speakers. ( 9 of them)

If you want a one stop solution then you should consider

If have seen a few pictures of the L7 amp an its split into a logic and power amp board . If you were clever with electronics it looks like you could remove the power board and use the logic board as a preamp.
You have to keep the stock amp when you add the ms8, and since I will use additional power amps not the ms8 power, it just seems like a kludgy D/A/D/A setup.
