Sub RCA query/advise

[Chippa85]

I've just paid for two of these active subs just waiting for them to be put on transit from port Lincoln as all of Adelaide had none the day of the sale,

I've just installed a pioneer AVH-3800DAB DVD and hands free and reverse camera deck, I have three sets of rcas front rear and sub, but I forgot that these were active lol so I have two amps, but obviously only one sub preput, can I just run one set of rcas along with remote turn on and use a splitter to go from one rca amp input to the other? I know I can do it with power and remote turn on but I'll be earthing them separately, I figuered they wouldn't be the best and normally I use winISD to make my own boxes but couldn't be bothered so I though being it's a hatch and will use cabin mass if I get two it may be half decent haha cheers guys

This is what I'm getting but my subs are black only small amps by the looks with a max power of 750w

Yes, you can use a splitter, or even multiple splitters.

Ok thanks for that, will doing this change it to mono 2v instead of 4?

wasnt sure what the setup was, or if the amplifiers were capable of summed mono input which would only require one rca.
