[QUOTE="JohnKuthe, post: 8532314, member: 670903"] I'll do my best at answering each: 1. Connecting spade connectors to speaker terminals. Just make sure the spade connector on the wire pushes firmly onto the spade connector on the speaker. I suppse you could solder and heat shrink it but that would make disassebly realy tough. 2. Yeah the amp installation instructions should tell you how far to strip back the insulation and then you just loosen the screw, stick the conductor part of the wire into it and screrw trhe screw donw tight noon it to secure the conductor in and the insulation of the wire should come right up to the connector and look really pretty. And head units and amps differ on how many RCAs they have/need. My Alpine PDX-V9 has inputs for six RCAs which some Caraudio.com evil denziens criticized me for using, but I figure of the amp has six RCA inoputs and my head unit has six outputs, trhe math is pretty simple! Now go watch those Youtubes and wish they provided a lot more information! And never let the evil denziens of Caraudio.com grind you down! ;-) John Kuthe... [/QUOTE]
