Pioneer GM-D8704 Help please !!!

[Raiders Fan]

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum.
I have purchased a pioneer GM-D8704 amp and I am fitting it to a Fiesta 2011 which has the factory fitted stereo. I have purchased some 9 core cable as I believe I need to make a T harness behind the stereo. I can't get my head around wiring upto the amp.

I will have a 9 core cable coming to the input A and B channels using the rca adaptors provided but when coming from the output of the amp it looks like I will need another rca lead (only 2 supplied) but how can the 8 wires from the 9 core cable attach to the 4 cable rca as only 1 output ?

Hope someone can help.

Regards

So you have a line output converter? If so the easiest way to do it is to mount the loc behind the radio and run rca cables from there to the input on the amplifier. Use the 9 core from the amplifier output back up to the factory speaker wires.

Thanks for your reply. No I don't have a line out converter. I have run 2 lengths of 9 core from the stereo to the amp. The input on the amp for channel A and B are rca's but pioneer supply a converter lead from rca to speaker wire so that's all good. I only have one output which is next to the inputs but I'm guessing I don't use this but need to use the speaker connections on the other side of the amp ? Cheers

The rca output is only used if you are using two amplifiers.

Cool thanks. God help me when I come to setting the amp gain
