[QUOTE="Colllosssalnoob, post: 8712803, member: 680660"] Colossal car audio noob here. I have just realized that my sub's pre-out RCAs running from my headunit to the back of the car are apparently connected to my amplifiers "Line Out", and not "Line In". It is a preowned soundstream rub1.1000D. The amp powers the SA12 very well and sounds great. [LIST=1] [*]I was just wondering if its gonna hurt anything by having my sub's RCAs connected to the amp's Line Out, rather than the Line in? [*]Am I losing out on any "power" or sound quality? Does it affect crossover filters and such. I unconfidently think it shouldn't really matter, but I want to check with you. Thank you. [/LIST] P.s. before you ask why don't I just swap the lines. I can't, I've tried. As I said it's pre-owned and it looks like there is something lodged in the "Line in" ports and I can't push the RCAs in so my only options are the two remaining "Line out".
