yes, you will need a high level to low level converter. you look it up to your sail pannel subs and it sends the signal to the device and converts it to low level(rca hook ups) worked flawless for the month i used mine before i bought a headunit. i have one forsale that i used for a month if you interested. pm me

Check to see if that amp has high-level inputs before you go buying a line-level converter. It may or may not be required.

I would also recommend that you tap the rear outputs of the radio itself, at the input connector of the monsoon amp, to grab your signal, whether you use a line level converter or not.

The monsoon radio just sends four normal high level signals to the monsoon amp, which you can grab at the amp input connector.

Grabbing your output here instead of at the speaker connections eliminates another level of distortion from the amp stage.
