[QUOTE="crzy2bealive, post: 8581403, member: 673321"] I know this site is for cars, but I need help with boat install. This will be my first time wiring a sound system ever......(I did my home entertainment system and that was easy) but after reading about bridging, ohms, etc...I'm not as confident as I thought. Here are the items I bought. JL Audio M700/5 (amp) Specs: 75 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms + 180 watts RMS at 4 ohms 100 watts RMS x 4 at 2 ohms + 300 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms 200 watts RMS x 2 bridged at 4 ohms + 300 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms 2 (JL Audio M8IB5-SG-WH) subs Specs: 200 watts at 4 ohms 4 (JL Audio MX650-CCX-SG-WH) speakers Specs: 60 watts at 4 ohms Alpine CDE SXM145 BT (Head unit) Specs: 2 Pre-amp outputs Based on my wiring schematic am I pointed in the right direction? I'm guessing I have to use RCA Y splitters from the top row of outputs on the head unit to amp for Channels 1 through 4 based on the Alpine manual. The subs will get a standard RCA cable utilizing the bottom 2 outputs on the head unit. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26556383[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
