[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1744486, member: 561023"] Exactly right. A high-level (otherwise known as speaker level/wire) input is for use with head units that have [I]no[/I] RCA preamp outputs so you splice into the speaker wire outputs from the head unit and connect to the amp that way. When offered a choice between high-level and low-level (RCA) inputs on an amplifier the better choice will always be low-level. As long as it is a good, solid ground connection there is no reason why not. I have both my amps and two 20-inch neon rods all gounded to the same spot via a distribution block. The main ground for my setup is spot-welded to the spare tire mount underneath the floor in my trunk (or 'boot' seeing as you're a Brit [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG]) then that cable feeds the distribution block which in turn grounds all my accessories.
