[QUOTE="eharri3, post: 5426565, member: 591579"] If your sub is amplified but not the internal speakers look in the head unit owner's manaul and see if there's a way to disable its internal amplifier. When I set mine I unplugged the fronts from my bridged 4 channel's RCAs but disabled the head unit's amp to turn off the rears, which go off the head unit. When I foolishly tuned my last amp using a 1000 db tone and the speakers hooked up, listening for a tone change, I got an ever so slight burning smell right before I turned it off. It went away and and everything ran fine for a couple years before I upgraded but Im quite sure I came quite close to killing them. [/QUOTE]
