In-dash stereo are proven limited in terms of performace  thought it works better when plug in to external power and set to highest volume levels.But if you need to power a subwoofer, a  separate amp is required to give lot more power compared to which in-dash delivers.

A mono amplifier is perfect for powering a subwoofer. A 2 or 4 channel amp is good for component speaker systems or full range while a 4, 5, or 6-channel amp is needed to handle a combination of subwoofers and full-range speakers. Amplifiers are easy to add to any factory-installed or brand name receiver.
