Had a issue with a previous install after my HU crapped out and now I'm thinking about going headless. My PBR300X4 has the ability to switch from 4 channel input to two channel input either w/ 4 channel output. I'm debating on using my phone as my input source using a 3.5mm to RCA cable. Anyone with any experienced feedback, suggestions, advice.

2011 RoadKing with a Reckless fairing, 4 Polk DB521's, the PBR300X4 and the now dead Sony MEX5000NBT HU. The HU died halfway into my trip two weeks ago, the amp survived. I'm in the process of trying to get an RMA from Sonic Electronix for the the HU since its only 8 months old. If they don't honor the warranty then I'll either have to buy another HU or go a different route.
I'm ok with the PBR300x4 for now as money is tight but have been looking at the Cerwin Vega B2 and B4 amp to go with the lowers and lids I haven't installed yet.
My reason for thinking of going headless is I don't listen to FM or CD's. I used the BT side of the HU and either listened to MP3's from my Droid phone or streamed Pandora or I heart radio. I did use a flash drive thru the front USB port a few times also.
