I installed a new cd player - a Panasonic CQ-C9901U and it sounds amazing already. Is it going to sound better if I were to bypass the amp? I just wanna know if I should do it or not.

I would bypass it if I were you and run your speakers off your HU. Then upgrade to a better amp down the road if you wish. SOLD Polarg M-28 super bright white bulbs.
