    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Perfect, that makes sense. Just wanted to make sure it doesn't attenuate the signal. Thanks for all the help

    Amplifier to power Alpine SWR-12D2. Can I use what I got?

    He's never done an install sadly. Had a bit of a brain blip about the powering... think I'm getting there, slowly but surely

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Ah, maybe one more question about the signal, still not clear to me. The Alpine amp I'm sending the RCA to doesn't have an RCA out. In this case would you get a dual RCA splitter in order to send the signal to each amp individually, or would you send the signal to the Avionixx first, which has...

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Damn looks like I would need to put in a new speaker terminal cup for the box, not set up for dual channel receiving.

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Sweet!! That works out well. I appreciate it. Nice to know I may not need to get a new amp after all. Like so yeah?

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Yeah! It is a DVC sub. I was wondering about that, if I could wire the two channels of the amp separately into the sub. I was looking at this:

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Thanks! Err maybe I have my lingo wrong. Yeah, there's just a L/R RCA out the back. Still a bit in the dark about the sub wiring. I thought I was to wire it to 4 ohms...

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Thanks again for your help. Head unit is a JVC KS-RX518 tape/radio/aux. deck. Sure to annoy some heads in here... I like the sound of tape though... I plug a bluetooth transponder into the 3.5mm 'walkman' in so I'm covered in that direction too, heh. Needless to say head unit amp carries very...

    Splitting RCA from head unit

    Hi all, Newb here. I'm drawing up a diagram for a couple amps and a sub I was given. My amp wattage is not ideal but until I can get the amp I want I'd like to use what I have. Only one of the amps I'm using has RCA outputs, which is the amp I am using to power the sub (AVIONIXX 1220). The...

    Amplifier to power Alpine SWR-12D2. Can I use what I got?

    Heh I may be answering my own question, I need a distribution block don't I? If one amp was powering the other obviously it would only have the power of the first... hehe

    Amplifier to power Alpine SWR-12D2. Can I use what I got?

    That was my original thought but the only thing is I don't see a way to connect the 4 channel amp to the 2 channel. There aren't outputs per se on the Alpine. Just speaker wire outputs

    Amplifier to power Alpine SWR-12D2. Can I use what I got?

    Thinking now to power front speakers with channel 1 of the Alpine, then send mono out of channel 2 to the Avionixx to power the back speakers (which would be in mono) and the sub. I'm not sure if this wiring is even correct, just thinking out loud.
