Yes. You plug the RCA from the HU Left & Right (front) out to the amp L & R input. Speaker L&R out to the crossovers, then from the crossovers to the tweet and woofer.


............................................._____ Tweeter (High)
H/U--->Amp-> Crossover-------<_____Woofer (Low)

basically to clarify for the OP cause the above even confused me a bit, no offense.

basically the crossover will see the Mid and tweet as one speaker. your wires will run from the mid and tweet into the crossover and only 1 set of wires, a + and - will run from the crossover to the amp.

thus for 1 comp set, (2 mids, 2 tweets, 2 crossovers) you only need 2 channels.

LOL! I though I was being clear, I even made a little diagram. I tried. I think I'll cry. :(

Kicker 350.2 looks fine...

You may also try to feed them with JL 300/4 which gives more than the specs on the paper and save the other 2 channel for something else...

I run mine off a TXA 3004. Does great, and has lots of headroom. Can be found cheap if you look around.
