[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8222211, member: 655960"] Your new head unit only has one set of line level outputs and your old one had three. What you've done is wired line level outputs cables (the RCAs you cut) into speaker level outputs and you cannot do that. There is a remarkable difference between the voltage levels of line level (RCA) and speaker level (the purple, green, white & gray wires) signals. That's why they aren't provided on the same type of connector. You need to either repair the wires you cut and use the old head unit or use only one set of RCA cables to your amplifiers. You can either use y connectors to split the signal to the two amplifiers or you can use the signal outputs on one amp to feed the signal to the other, if one of your amps has a signal output.
