[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8018834, member: 576029"] first off, welcome. second, if you tilt the parcel shelf forward, you want to have the speakers mounted to it in enclosures. you need to keep the rear airspace totally separate from the front airspace otherwise you get cancellation and just wasted effort. third, yes, you can run three amps. getting signals to them is best done with a new head unit - buy that first. then, once you have a HU with 6-channel outputs, get your second 4 channel amp and rear parcel shelf speakers. you don't want to split your HU outputs more than twice - because it reduces the impedance load and can damage the HU outputs. if you want to keep your HU, then just get a line driver or EQ that has 2 inputs and 6 outputs. if your 4 channel amps can run off 2 inputs, then you're set. if not, then you'll still need y-adapters at each amp. i recommend the kind with one female and two male connectors so the split is at the amp (saves cabling). you did not provide model numbers so we cannot verify what your amps can or cannot do.
