Question Powered Subwoofer/ Amp Question

I have a Kenwood powered subwoofer tube and wanted to know if I could connect a more powerful Alpine external amp to it and run the speakers off the new amp?

Can it be done and/or is there anything I should know about doing this?

yes you can, but you'll need to find an opening to run the wire to the subwoofer.

I have speaker level inputs on the subwoofer, can't I just connect the amp to them?
