I think Ive already asked this but wasnt too clear...

I have a dvd receiver that has 3 sets of rca out on the back (R,F,Sub) and the brain has 2 video ins and another input for a cd changer..

I also have a Pioneer cd player that only has one set of RCAs.

Im using a MTX 4 channel amp to drive 6 speakers. Two 6.5 in the rear, two 5 1/4 in the back wired together with my tweeters.

Then I have a Rockford Fosgate 2 channel amp that im using to drive 2 kenwood 12" subs.

How would you wire this system? How can I wire the pioneer (one set RCA) to run to 2 amps but have the DVD receiver wired to the amps at the same time? Is it okay to power the two receivers off the same power/ground lead?

And as for the subs...would you suggest one channel per sub, or running them in parallel and bridging the amp?

Let me know how YOU would wire this...as you can all probably tell, Im really bad at this kinda stuff. Iam learning thanks to you guys however!

 
That Pioneer Head unit with only one output is a big problem, it looks like the DVD receiver is going to havto be the main unit here because if its triple outputs and double inputs.

So we hook the Pioneer HU into the DVD aux input and have the outputs from the DVD to the amps, Front and rear RCA to the 4channel and the sub RCA out to the sub amp. To power the pair we splice into the factory switched/constant power and ground (yes they can share).

"Im using a MTX 4 channel amp to drive 6 speakers. Two 6.5 in the rear, two 5 1/4 in the back wired together with my tweeters."

-Why are all the speakers in the back?, it would sound best if you got the sound up front.

"And as for the subs...would you suggest one channel per sub, or running them in parallel and bridging the amp?"

-I need to know the exact model of the amp and the weather the subs have dual voice coils or single and what ohms are they rated at.
