I'm adding an Alpine Power Pack into my WRX because the stock head unit is absolutely shit and the aftermarket just doesn't support the SWC yet. Ideally I would get a Pioneer NEX (4100?) unit and be done with it, but for now the amp seems to be the way to go from what I've read on the forums.
The wiring seems to be mostly straightforward, I've done car audio before. Where I'm getting hung up is trying to figure out whether or not its possible to wire speaker wires to RCA male so I can just plug into the amp? I'm aware of LOC's, however the KTP-445U is capable of taking speaker level inputs(literally just flipping a switch).
If it's not possible, then I'm going to chop off the female RCA's on the Alpine harness as they suggest and directly wire, and keep them so I can re-solder them back on if need be.
