I have a ‘72 Delta 88 convertible.

i am wanting to keep the OEM AM/FM stereo head unit, but run the high level outputs into a modern Bluetooth amp.  The original head unit has common ground outputs and requires 10 ohm speakers.  

I plan on installing modern 4 ohm speakers and powering them with the modern amp. Obviously this system uses floating grounds for the speakers. The amp also requires floating ground high level inputs from a head unit if one is used.  I found a floating ground adapter, however it is designed to use a floating ground head unit with common ground speaker wiring. 

Two questions:

Would it penpossile to just split the common ground output to both input channels on the amp?

And if not:

Is it possible to use the available floating to common ground adapter in reverse?

Well, generally speaking, I would agree. But that is like saying that PRV, Stetsom and Taramps are all the same. Similar maybe, but not the same...

It is an L port. You might as well add three 45's. Add one by the leg of the L and the two that I showed you in my other post.

Thank you both :) I'll probably wait it out for the SA-12 v.2s in that case. Always learning on this forum and I appreciate it so much as always!

It was also 1960 and the quality of sound you could get out of the loudspeakers of the day was going to be rather anemic even given optimum...

No way to tell if the wiring is bastardized without looking for yourself. Wiring adapters are cheap enough at installer.com. That said there is...
