That could easily be done near the amp. Using the 5.1k in that manner would give me ample headroom without it being too insane plus give me options if I ever did want to upgrade to a sub in the trunk.
The OEM amp inputs are either high level or low level 5V balanced, not low level un-balanced.

The bit one.1 outputs just low level un-balanced.

However, you can split the OEM HU outputs by using its front to the bit one.1 and leave its rear to the OEM amp. The bit one.1 can take the front two channels input and give you up to 8 channels output in whatever configuration you want.

Then you can use the 5.1k as you wish.
