How do i hook up a 4 channel amplifier.

[iSteven 10+ year member]

I want to use an amplifier for 2 door speaks and 2 rear speakers. but what i am asking is how to do i hook them up to my deck. My deck has the RCA 3X Pre outs. 1 is subwoofer. which is currently hooked up and working. other is Left. Another is Right. Where would i plug in rcas to have the 4 speakers playing and the 1 subwoofer playing? i will be running two amplifiers. one 4 channel other is mono.

I was thinking about it just plugging it into the left or the right but i guess if i tried using the fade on the deck. it wouldnt work right cause its either all on the left. or all on the right. But it would work if i just choosed one to put it on?

plug and run rca left and right , then split them at the amp? so you have your 4 inputs

Plug your front left/right into the front channels of the amp,

Rear left/right into the rear

Subs already done.

are you trying to cheap out and only run 1 set of rca? you have 2 outs for front and rear and you have 2 inputs in your amp for front and rear, this is a match not sure where the disconnect is?
