W204/C350 ...The only way I can hook up subs an an amp in my car is to buy a $700 signal processor? Is this true? My intention was to run a high/low convertor fromthe factory amp to my aftermarket amp and go from there.... anyone ran a sub/amp combo off the factory MM head unit?Im sure this has been discussed here but im just trying to find some quick feedback.

Thanks in advance.

Yea but they tell me if I do that the H/K MM system would fight the bass signal and the sub wont hit hard (because the system is set up to fight heavy bass and kill distortion).
