How do you run actuve throught he head unit + amped rear fill?

Wait, I think I just realized what you are trying to do...

You are wanting to use the amp inside the HU to run the front speakers, and run the subs off of their own amp?

If that is the case, then you are stuck with the HU's processor, unfortunatly //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

edit, except for maybe a RF 250.x, but then you would need that and a palm device, and I still am not positive it will do what you need.

whoa... this might be exactly what I need. I just saw that it had a center channel out and I assumed it was a mono output that couldnt be used for anything else

To save some money, look for the PXA-H700 on ebay instead of the H701.

Its the same unit, but it includes the controller, which is a separate option on the 701.

It tends to be a lot cheaper when you can find one.

So the pre amp out on the amp into a 2 channel amp won't work for you? I have mine hooked up that way.

I thought the 701 was discontinued?

Will a 9887 not control the 701?

I dont know, I've only read that some of their DVD HU's can control it directly.

The H700 is actually cheaper most of the time than the H701 by itself, so it wouldnt hurt just in case.

I run the same way you want to do and it works fine. I run front stage active and daisy chained the 4 channel to a 2 channel amp for the rear fill. I run that amp off a toggle switch so it's only on when I'm playing very loud. Set the HPF on the 2 channel and you're good to go.

I have a loud substage also //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

This one is $40 cheaper, and $14 cheaper on shipping.

Wait wait wait.

Your going to amp your rear fill and run the fronts off the HU?!

WHY!? You should be doing the opposite!

 

[hoss 5,000+ posts]

Edit, nevermind. I read it wrong.

 

[energizedsbs 10+ year member]

couldn't you just use y splitters on the mid bandpass out to run your rear fill on a seperate amp?

no... I want to amp them all, fronts active off of a Sundown SAX100.4 and probably pick up a Sundown 100.2 if I can find one for the rears
