Oh whoops, one more thing. Right now I have Polk separates in the front and the stock 1998 Honda 6x9's in the rear. I have a set of Polk 5 1/4's that I could put in the rear if I figure out how to fit/stabilize them in the stock 6x9 hole. Would the Polk's probably sound better than the stock...

So, from a purist's perspective 2 RCA's would be the way to go. From a novice perspective, my highs and mids are getting sent to the right place, my lows to the right place and I just don't have any control from the deck. That's acceptable for now. I just wanted to make sure that only running...

Oh yeah, one more thing. I can change the balance from left to right, but I cannot change front to back. (I'm not sure if that tells you anything).

What will I gain if I use a Y splitter? Will it be the same as if I had run the second RCA all the way from the deck? Are the second RCA's on the deck outputting the same signal as the first RCA's? What will the amp do with the second connection of RCA's? What is HPF? What is going wrong with...

Hi, I've got a Kenwood deck (with sub control in it BBE). I've got a 5 channel kenwood amp. I got it installed and they used one set of RCA's. What am I missing? Can one set of RCA's from the deck send all of the correct signals to the amp or is the system crippled without the second set of...
