The Fender system uses MOST (fiber optic) output from the main unit to the fender amp, and then the fender amp output goes to the speakers. Hypothetically you could install the Helix, and re-code the MIB to use it's built-in speaker output (which goes to the Helix).
But then you would need to wire from the Helix harness to all of your speakers. And you would also need to replace the speakers (the door ones at least) because they are dual voice coil if I remember correctly.
I also don't know if the Fender tweeters have a built in high-pass filter or if the Fender amp is handling that. If those tweeters do not have built in high pass filters you will need to replace those as well because the Helix puts out full range to the non-Fender tweeters (which have a small capacitor attached to handle high-pass filtering).
I know absolutely nothing about the Beats system... but if it's similar to Fender/Dynaudio then replacing it with the Helix will be quite the PITA.
