Hey guys, I need some help. I bought our son a subwoofer and amp for Chrtistmas and I need to install it. Here is the configuration and then I will let you guys tell me how to solve the dilema.
Rockford Fosgate P212S4 12' sub
Rockford Fosgate P3001 150w RMS x 1 Mono block amplifier
My question is how do I integrate it into the car. Currently it has a Sony head deck 35x4 that is driving the front 5 1/4 and rear 6x9. Obviously these will be corrected future tense but for now the sub seemed like the best addition.
How do I integrate the wiring of the sub to get the audio signal? The deck only has 1 set of pre-amps and if I use them, will I not remove the rear audio channel from the deck, thus removing the 6x9's? Is there a way to get around this without a crossover? Also if not, would it be possible short term to connect both fronts and rears to the front channel and rob the rear channel for the sub? Does anyone think that it will kill the head unit if it is pushing 2 sets of speakers? Any solutions would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.
