Sound system with just the aux.

[Bajamike2012]

Hi

I was wondering is there a way to run just an aux. cable with no head unit, but with 2 amps. I have a 1000 watt ken wood 2 channel amp running my sub and a 740 4 channel amp running my speakers is there a way to make just the aux cable work with my set up. I have after market speakers And a JL w7 as my sub. This is all going in a race truck that is still street legal. Or do you offer some thing that will work. I dont want a head unit *just the aux cable. *That I can plug in to on my dash. Do I have to plug RCA's in to each amp. *Feedback would be great.

Thanks

if one of the amps has RCA outputs, you can daisy chain them.

probably a better option would be to use a dash mounted pre-amp or eq with adjustable volume and pre-out line driver

Honestly the RF 360.1(or .2 or .3) or the Audison Bit one is a great option. Both work great with tons of control and enough options to not require a headunit. These are also the most commonly used when someone wants to control their entire system from a tablet and not a stereo.

Just use ipod,iphone, anything with a 3.5 mm jack with a 3.5 to rca and daisy chain everything.
