question about amps

So this may be a little technical but figured there are some pretty knowledgeable people on here. With the stock RF amp if you stop using it to power the 10"sub would that allow what little power that was used by the sub to be allocated to the other speakers or am I just hopeful wishing here lol.

alright well if I add an amp for an aftermarket sub cut the sub wires to the stock amp use the scosche loc80 with those wires, switch out the amp for a 4 channel will I lose the bluetooth and sub volume control? I know I will lose the equalizer. just to double check the LOC hooks up to the speakers your using right not the line in for the stock amp? Thanks

if you are going to do all that, get an aftermarket HU anyways. you can get Pioneers for 200 bucks or less with BUILT IN bluetooth, meaning no extra module or anything needed. make sure it has 6 channel RCAs though (front, rear, and sub)

you will have to get an interface module from PAC....i forget which model, but it depends on the vehicle and if the radio has a wired remote input in the back.
