Hoping someone can point me in the right direction...
What gear/adapter do I need to add 2 rear speakers and a sub in the back?
I got speakers 50RMS speakers upgraded on the front and waiting to order the sub-woofer with an and. Don't need a power hungry system as I use the 220 amp alternator to charge the house battery system ... just something clean and just enough volume on long trips ... My van has a basic integrated stereo with only 2 front speakers WIHTOUT FADE control .. I'd like my rear speakers louder to have a balanced sound with the fronts ... I can't see the FADE control on the sub for the rear outputs ... Any other way to make the rears louder without an EQ?
Someone suggested to:
1) use an Line Output converter to get the 2 speaker output into 2 channel Pre-amp outs ..
2) use an Equalizer to split the 2 channel signal into 5 channel signal outputs .. EQ should have FADE control to make the rears louder..
3) connect the 5 outs from the equalizer to a 5 channel amp...
4) use component speakers in the front, move the front 50 RMS speakers to the rear
Problem I have no room on the dash to add an equilizer .. and most affordable ones come with silly bright LEDs ...
Also, seems to be so many devices to do a simple task ... I was hoping for a more streamlined/elegant affordable solution.
I've replaced stereos / speakers before but never worked with an amp setup ..
Thanks so much!
